2D Radiography (x-ray), a Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) method, is applied in a multitude of manufacturing, repair industries, and in every type of inspection program. 2D X-ray is the most used NDT method outside of visual inspection.
AM production enables the creation of parts not possible with traditional technologies through new design concepts, new materials, and new applications, but still presents challenges.
Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies continuously blaze the trail of what’s possible for part design. As such, reliably and accurately inspecting the latest parts has become increasingly complex.
Computed radiography, a form of X-ray imaging, has been embraced widely by many major manufacturing companies. Its application is now core for testing within a range of sectors including aerospace, oil and gas, industrial gas turbines, medical implants and prosthetics.
The x-ray inspection process was fully integrated after new UCI president, David Lappartient looked to VJ Technologies to help clean up cycling in 2017.
