What Is Radiography? Radiography uses
an x-ray device or radioactive isotope as a source of radiation
which passes through the material and is captured on film or
digital device. After processing the film an image of varying
density is obtained. Possible imperfections are identified through
density changes.
Typical Applications
Thickness Determination of Materials
Inspection of Castings
Inspection of Forgings
Inspection of Welds
Inspection of Aerospace Materials
