3D Replicas for Non-destructive Testing and Field Applications
RepliSet produces an exact 3D copy of the surface on-site.
The tough, flexible high-resolution replicas allow even inaccessible engineering surfaces to be examined and measured under laboratory conditions.
A replica can be taken from all metallic surfaces and most other solid materials like ceramics, plastics and glass. |
|  |
| |
| This advanced replica technique opens for a vast range of applications
within engineering inspection, metrology and forensic investigation. Typically within high tech engineering industries including power generation, aerospace, chemical plants, off-shore industry etc. |

The RepliSet System
RepliSet is a complete system
for replicating materials. It is easy
and safe
to work with and compatible with the materials to be replicated.
High Resolution and Form Stability
RepliSet can replicate details with dimensions less than 0.1 micron over the whole replica surface, which can be in any size or shape.
RepliSet has no shrinkage, and can as a result of this be used for high accuracy metrology measurements. |
|  |
| |
| The RepliSet system can even produce replicas which are dimensional correct have ultra fine detail reproduction as well as a plane back. |
|  |
| |
As the RepliSet replicas have a high tear strength and flexibility they can easily be removed from moderately re-entrant geometry without damage or distortion. Upon release, the material returns to its original shape.
Replicas can be transported without any problems and the permanent 3D record can be stored for future reference.
Under all Conditions
Generally, the weather condition is no problem. Being water-repellent, RepliSet can provide replicas of humid surfaces, and it can cure on surfaces in a temperature range from 10°C to +180°C. Replicas of any size or shape
can be produced even from vertical or overhead surfaces. |

A variety of Examination Methods
RepliSet types are available either for optical microscopy, including micro-structural examination using reflected light or for high image contrast, when the surface is examined in a stereomicroscope with oblique illumination.
Interferometry can be used for precise surface measurements including determination of surface finish.
Uncoated or metal coated replicas can be examined by SEM.
Laser measuring equipment and measuring projectors with 2D or 3D facilities are very well suited for the examination.
