About RT
Radiography Testing (RT) is an inspection method used to identify internal defects that may not be visible from the surface.
During radiographic inspection, radiation passes through the material being examined. Different areas of the material absorb the radiation differently depending on their condition and density. The radiation that passes through the component is captured on a film or digital detector, creating an image of the internal structure.
The resulting radiographic image can be evaluated to identify internal discontinuities such as porosity, slag inclusions, cracks and lack of fusion
How RT Works
Defects Detected
- Porosity : Detection of gas-related voids within the material or weld.
- Slag Inclusion : Identification of trapped slag inclusions.
- Cracks : Detection of relevant internal cracking.
- Lack of Fusion : Identification of areas where proper fusion has not occurred.
Applications
Where Radiography Testing Is Used
Weld Inspection
Used to examine welded joints for internal defects.
Casting Inspection
Applied to inspect cast components for internal discontinuities.
Pipeline Joints
Used for inspection of suitable pipeline weld joints.
