Beyond the Weld: Master Adhesive Bond Inspection with RSWA ABIS

In the modern automotive "Body-in-White" process, structural adhesives are just as critical as spot welds. Whether it’s reinforcing a door’s hem flange or bonding lightweight aluminum panels, the "unseen" adhesive bead determines the vehicle's stiffness and long-term durability.

But how do you inspect a bond hidden between two sheets of metal? Enter ABIS (Adhesive Bond Inspection System)—the powerful software extension for the Tessonics RSWA instrument.

The Vision to See Through Metal

ABIS transforms your RSWA into a dedicated adhesive analyzer. Using advanced ultrasonic matrix technology, it provides a 2D C-scan (top-view) of the adhesive coverage.

  • See the Invisible: The operator instantly gets a 10 mm x 10 mm acoustic image of the bond.

  • Real-Time Diagnostics: With live A-scans and C-scans, you can pinpoint the exact position, orientation, and size of imperfections (voids, gaps, or thin spots) in the adhesive bead.

  • Automatic Measurement: The software automatically determines the width of the adhesive bead with a lateral resolution of 1 mm, ensuring it meets engineering specs.

Designed for the Factory Floor


Efficiency is built into the DNA of ABIS:

  • One-Sided Access: No need to reach around the part; inspect complex geometries like hem flanges from a single side.

  • Seamless Switch-over: Since it uses the familiar RSWA-GUI, your team can transition from weld inspection to adhesive inspection with zero learning curve.

  • Versatile Application: It works on steel and aluminum (0.7–2.0 mm) and handles both structural and sealant adhesives, whether they are pre-cured or fully cured.

Conclusion

The RSWA ABIS extension turns your ultrasonic device into a multi-tool for the Industry 4.0 era. Stop guessing about bond integrity—visualize it, measure it, and guarantee it.
