Abstract

A counter-rotating turbine of an aircraft turbomachine, includes a casing including an endoscopy port configured for an endoscopy plug of a non-destructive testing device to pass into the casing. The endoscopy plug includes a mechanism for acquiring and transmitting images. The non-destructive testing device includes a mechanism for receiving and displaying images connected to the mechanism for acquiring and transmitting images by a wireless connection. First and second rotors are configured to rotate in opposite rotation directions, the second rotor having an endoscopy port in which the endoscopy plug is removably attached.
