Core sampling is the gold standard for concrete inspections – Aithon makes this possible without asset downtime, without endangering workers, and without compromising on results.
Our technology allows for the safe and precise extraction of concrete core samples at hard-to-reach locations — no scaffolding, no rope access.
The mission in short
At a highway bridge in the mountains, critical locations for corrosion were identified. To continue safe operation, ground-truth samples from the asset were required. With Aithon, these samples were extracted without closing the road and in the same time as it would have taken human workers. The resulting cores were sent to lab testing for chlorides and carbonation.
