The radiation transmitted is then partially absorbed, producing an image of the item on the film.
This well established technique gives a permanent record and is widely used through the industry to detect internal flaws in weldments, castings and forgings in a wide spectrum of ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
Today’s more sensitive, finer grained films, however, provide images of higher quality than ever before. In addition, automatic processing has removed all the variables arising from manual inputs, so the image quality is not only better, but also more consistent. The images can be captured and digitally enhanced, and thanks to computer technology, sent around the world in seconds.
Our in-house facility, comprising 2 purpose built exposure bays, will accommodate most clients’ requirements. This service is complemented by an on-site capability when required, which can be customised to clients’ needs.
Due to the safety aspects surrounding the use of and exposure to radiation, all our technicians are fully trained and qualified, and work strictly in accordance with all the requirements of the HSE ionising radiation regulations.
