X-RAY RADIOGRAPHY INSPECTION

Radiography is one of the most widely used nondestructive techniques. It provides a photographic record resulting from the passage of X-rays or gamma-rays through an object onto a film or phosphorus plate. After development of the film or phosphorus plate, internal discontinuities can be detected. This technique has a wide variety of applications such as castings, weldments, and assemblies.

Bess MTI provides radiographic services to a large variety of industries. Our current available techniques include the use of digital X-ray with phosphorus plates. Our instrumentation consists of the following:
