Why building scaffolding is draining your maintenance budget

(and how it doesn't have to be like that)

Do scaffolding and endless turnarounds also top the list of frustrations and costs for your maintenance budget? Traditionally, inspecting industrial steam boilers has meant high costs, extensive downtime and the inevitable safety risks associated with manual work at height.

There is another way. Thanks to the innovative collaboration between Vinçotte and SkyeBase, traditional steam boiler inspection is a thing of the past.

Using advanced drones, equipped with custom made Ultrasonic Thickness (UT) probes, we are transforming the way wall thickness measurements are carried out.


Our philosophy is simple: We Fly, we Measure and you Save.

Why switch to drone-based UT measurements? #

  • Speed: Your downtime is drastically reduced as inspection windows are minimal.
  • Cost savings: No more sky-high costs for erecting scaffolding in hard-to-reach areas.
  • Safety: Zero risk to inspectors in hazardous or confined spaces.
  • Certainty: You receive highly reliable data mapping and in-depth analyses.

In short: you benefit from the absolute precision of a certified UT inspection, combined with the speed and flexibility of a drone flight.
