Transforming NDT with 3D X-Ray Imaging
Digital Tomosynthesis Imaging Systems
The Adaptix NDT3D is a cutting edge, 3D X-ray inspection system for NDT which produces images in minutes, not hours. Using digital tomosynthesis, Adaptix solutions are a game changer for non-destructive testing. From assembly verification to reverse engineering, failure, void, and porosity analysis to weld inspections, Adaptix NDT3D systems have your inspection requirements covered.
Key Features:
• 3D visualization – not just numbers
• Fast – images produced in minutes
• Scalable – from microelectronics to aerospace components
• Benchtop systems available – easily transportable
• File management – a variety of data outputs to match your current workflow, including DICONDE and tiff
• Versatile – choose between closed or open systems
How it works.
Adaptix have developed Digital Tomosynthesis technology which allows 3D imaging of parts in a fraction of the time of CT imaging.
This is possible through the use of a series of low dose 2D X-ray projections which are taken from different positions, then reconstructed using specialized software algorithms to combine into a stack of slices.
These slices are presented in a scrollable stack which the NDT technician can then scroll through (like the pages of a book) and view features within the volume of the part. This technology is fast and accurate, providing results within minutes.
Composite Inspection Using 3D Digital Tomosynthesis
Key Features:
• Provides true 3D internal visualization unlike conventional ultrasound, and makes interpretation far easier
• Inspection possible at any stage of production, including dry preform (upstream)
• Suitable for large composite parts (1m+) enabling 3D X-ray inspection directly on the manufacturing line or even on vehicle
Fast. Economical. Easy to operate.
Cost Savings
Lower investment and operating cost compared to CT making routine 3D NDT viable for sectors where CT is too expensive
Faster Inspections
Much faster acquisition providing results in minutes, making it dramatically faster than CT
