Non Destructive Testing
Market Overview
Stationary and Portable Applications in Quality Control
-
Stand-alone applications: aircraft and automobile industries
-
Integrated applications: in-line inspection of complex castings
-
Portable applications: inspection of pipeline welds and construction sites structures
Application Requirements
In film applications, like weld inspection (pipelines, pipes in power plants) robustness and exposure time are key parameters for efficient imaging.For inline process applications like fully automated wheel inspection systems speed, resolution and reliability are key performance criteria. In other applications like inspecting turbine blades the variance of penetration capabilities are key factors. In industrial computer tomography (CT) resolution, penetration and interruption-free operation for several hours are the key performance factors.
