Vibrant has earned a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase\nI contract (number: FA9453-19-P-0540) with the Ogden Air Logistics Center\n(OO-ALC). The program will apply PCRT\u2019s proven effectiveness in detecting heat\ndamage to test titanium torque tubes (part of aircraft braking systems). The\nAir Force is looking to replace its current method of visual inspection and\nwill be evaluating how PCRT and a handful of other NDT methods compare to\nmechanical performance of heat damaged parts. The Phase I program scope is nine\nmonths and $150,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis project will be a great opportunity to demonstrate how PCRT\ncan help the Air Force address ongoing and future sustainment problems\u201d said\nEric Biedermann, Vibrant\u2019s Engineering Manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
