description This paper deals with the operating principle of a multi-NDT test bench aimed at automatically test wind turbine blade sections. This bench uses two NDT methods, infrared thermography (IRT) which is a global method and phased array ultrasonic testing (UTPA) which is a volumic method. The interest of using UTPA compared to conventional ultrasonic testing (UT) is to cover a larger area for a single scan line. This allows shorter scan durations. Concerning the test course, the IRT method aims first to detect suspicious areas and UTPA comes next for sanctioning the indications previously detected. Thus, the test cycle is shorter than a classic robotized UTPA scan and offers more precision in sizing defects than only an IRT method. This project is a follow-up to tests carried out manually in 2019 at CETIM.
