Radiographic Testing (RT)

Overview
Radiographic Testing (RT) uses X-rays or gamma rays to inspect the internal structure of materials, providing a clear image of any internal flaws or inconsistencies. This method is especially effective for identifying cracks, voids, or inclusions in metals. For aerospace components where safety and durability are paramount, RT enables precise inspection without compromising material integrity.

Applications

• Aluminum, light metals, and steels Casting: RT is ideal for detecting subsurface imperfections, such as porosity or shrinkage, that may affect the component’s reliability under high stress or thermal conditions.

• Steel Plate Butt Welds: RT provides accurate weld inspections by revealing potential voids, cracks, or misalignments, ensuring that welded joints meet critical aerospace standards.

Advantages
Radiographic Testing offers comprehensive insights into the internal integrity of components, enabling proactive identification of defects that could lead to failure in high-stress environments, such as those experienced in aerospace applications.
