  X-ray image: Blowholes in plastic parts

  Information:
Blowholes are undesirable air inclusions in the material. Caused by blowholes a weakening of the cross section arises and reduces the needed stability of the material. For the identification of blowholes and other defects the digital x-ray inspection is brought into action more and more frequently for a fast and efficient non-destructive testing method for quality assurance.

  Possibilities of inspection:
lack of material / cracks / blowholes / contaminants and inclusions / porousness / form divergences

  X-ray image: Wax forms for turbine blades

  Information:
Modern turbine blades are equipped with channels or channel systems, through which cooling air blows during the operation. Due to the warped geometry, a ultrasound measurement is often very difficult. Digital x-ray inspection is suitable for testing the turbine blades on wall thickness, cracks and errors in the cooling system.

  Possibilities of inspection:
damages / contaminants and inclusions / cracks / blockages or interruptions of the channel system
