Digital Radiography and its Advantages in Field NDT Inspections Today
نویسنده
چکیده
Digital radiography is earning its place in the NDT market, as specialists realize this technology surpasses Film and Film Replacement. Portable digital Radiography provides many benefits to users. Fast images upon request for immediate analysis mean there is no compromise on image quality and no repositioning. Vidisco flat panel systems enable the reduction of working time and costs while enlarging the profits of NDT service providers. This article will focus on Non Destructive Testing with a portable DR system in the petrochemical and pipes industry, shipyards and in the service of art.

Phased Arrays for Pipeline Girth Weld Inspections
Ultrasonic phased arrays offer significant advantages over radiography for pipeline weld inspections: they have higher detection rates for critical planar defects (i.e. cracks and lack of fusion), better defined interpretation, vertical sizing capability for Engineering Critical Assessment, no safety hazards, no licensing issues, no chemical wastes, and no requirement to evacuate the area. Phas...
متن کاملAchieving greater efficiency in NDT inspections
Describes the application of an ultrasonic sensing system for the non-destructive inspection of welds as an alternative to X-rays. Replacing radiography with ultrasound not only allows faster, more economical inspections but also eliminates the health and safety risks associated with radiography. In practical terms that means there is no need to evacuate the site for inspection purposes ± const...

متن کاملQuality comparison of direct digital panoramic radiography and computed radiography panoramic
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Digital panoramic X-ray images can be captured using photostimulable phosphors or solid-state detectors (i.e. charge-coupled devices and Flat-Panels). The first category is defined as computed radiography (CR) or semi-direct radiography. The second technology that uses solid-state detectors is known as direct digital radiography (DDR). Both of these technologies have their o...
متن کاملAgreement of Bitewing and Digital Panoramic Radiographies in the Detection of Proximal Caries
Background & Aims: Conventional radiography is used for the diagnosis of problems such as dental caries and failure in root canal therapy. The diagnosis accuracy of conventional radiography is acceptable in the evaluation of anatomical and pathological structures. However, it seems that by using digital radiography we can obtain more information in this field. The aim of this study is to compar...
