VENOM Automated Ultrasonic Scanner (3-Axis NDT Robotic Crawler)
VENOM is a unique 3-axis robotic crawler purpose-built for true NDT integration, delivering unmatched speed, precision, and repeatability without compromise. Designed by NDT operators to automate ultrasonic inspections across tanks, pipelines, monopiles, ship hulls, and other critical industrial assets, VENOM features high-payload magnetic wheels to seamlessly climb vertical surfaces. By enabling fully remote ground-based operations, it completely eliminates the need for expensive scaffolding or high-risk rope access, significantly reducing inspection time while maximizing workplace safety.
