Our Story

Checkblade is the trusted agent for companies that operate in the field of inspection and maintenance of wind turbine blades. Checkblade and its predecessor Bladebot have made it easier for wind farm owners and -operators to get inspections done fast and reliable by transparent project management.

Sherlock

INSPECTION OF THE SURFACE DEFECTS BY DRONE

Get a complete diagnosis of the state of the surface of your blades and your towers at low cost thanks to our Sherlock inspections. We offer two levels of quality for your pictures (20Mpx – 45Mpx) depending on your needs and the type of inspection required. Sherlock can also be internalised with our renting offer and our flight application (manual or automatic): you can pilot safely and obtain images of high quality, which can then be easily processed. The inspections are done in a reproducible manner in order to not miss any potential defects and guarantee their follow up thanks to the “linked defects'' function of our VisionAir platform.

Volta

LIGHTNING PROTECTION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS (LPS)

Discover the first lightning path testing drone in the world, capable of diagnosing the defective receptors precisely and in record time: in less than one hour, you will obtain the resistance values of all your receptors. You can also check their state thanks to a picture taken by an embedded camera and the interpretation of your data by one of our experts, for a guaranteed result. Volta is also available for rent: train your pilots on our flight protocols and our assisted-piloting application for a secure flight

Clarity

THERMAL INSPECTION

Secure your blades with an internal view by thermography which enables the detection of damages before their spread on the surface. The earlier a damage is detected, the cheaper it is to repair! Our R&D teams use two types of thermography: a passive type which only uses the sun as heat source, and an active one which uses a laser to control the heating of the blade and analyse the thermal contrast. Clarity contributes to the implementation of a preventive maintenance that goes beyond a simple surface inspection of your blades.
