Testing system for examining turbine blades

1. A testing system for examining the coating and open cooling-air holes of turbine blades, comprising:

a positioning device for an infrared camera with solely a horizontal degree of freedom and a vertical degree of freedom such that the infrared camera is not rotatable or tiltable,

a rotating-pivoting device for positioning the turbine blade about an axis of rotation and about a pivot axis that is perpendicular to the axis of rotation,

a rotatable air duct arranged on the rotating-pivoting device for introducing into the turbine blade air at a temperature higher or lower in comparison with the turbine blade, and

an infrared camera arranged on the positioning device;

wherein the rotatable air duct comprises a rotary connector including a hollow spindle, wherein the hollow spindle is in flow communication with multiple openings located adjacent one another side by side in the receptacle such that air flows into the receptacle and into a blade disposed in the receptacle during operation of the testing system.

2. The testing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rotating-pivoting device comprises a base plate with a turntable that is rotatable about the axis of rotation.

3. The testing system as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the base plate is pivotable about the pivot axis, which is perpendicular to the axis of rotation.

4. The testing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rotating-pivoting device is arrestable or motor-driven in the rotating and/or pivoting direction.

5. The testing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rotating-pivoting device comprises a blade clamping device for fixing the turbine blade.

6. The testing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the air duct has a high-temperature-resistant rotary connector.

7. The testing system as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the rotary connector is arranged in the region of the axis of rotation.

8. The testing system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a basic frame with a testing booth, in which the rotating-pivoting device and the positioning device are arranged.

9. The testing system as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the testing booth is closable.

10. The testing system as claimed in claim 8 , further comprising an air extraction device and/or an air conditioning device for the testing booth.

11. The testing system as claimed in claim 8 , further comprising an information and/or operator control unit arranged outside the testing booth.

12. The testing system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising at least one flash lamp for flash-thermographic measurements.

13. The testing system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an ultrasonic device for ultrasonic excitation of the turbine blade.

14. The testing system as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising a receptacle on the turntable for receiving a turbine blade.
