Digital x-ray inspection offers the possibility to identify and to sort out promptly wood stocks of minor quality or to transfer them to other processing possibilities.

  Possibilities of inspection:
structure / contaminants and inclusions (e. g. shell splinters) / hollow spaces / decay / knots

  Information:
In order to guarantee the security, for example in the chemical industry, oil industry or in nuclear power plants, tubes and pipelines have to be checked not only during the production, but also in the regular operation. Particularly at insulated or jacketed tubes, x-ray imaging is often the only one applicable method of non-destructive testing. The costs for the tube inspection can be reduced to a minimum by the digital x-ray inspection.

  Possibilities of inspection:
wall thickness measurements / cracks / inclusions / shrinkage cavity / porousness / corrosion
