What is Radiographic Inspection Procedure?
Radiographic Inspection (RT) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method used to examine the internal structure of materials and components for hidden defects such as cracks, voids, inclusions, or lack of fusion. RT uses X-rays or Gamma rays to penetrate materials and produce an image that reveals internal discontinuities without damaging the item under inspection.
Method of Inspection | Applications
Radiographic testing works by directing controlled ionizing radiation through a test object onto a detector such as radiographic film or a digital detector. Variations in material thickness and density affect radiation absorption, producing an image that highlights internal defects.
RT is commonly applied to:
- Weld inspections
- Castings and forgings
- Pressure vessels and piping
- Structural components
Materials Suitable
- Ferrous metals
- Non-ferrous metals
- Welded components
- Castings and fabricated parts
