What is Radiography Testing (RT)?

Principles of RT

Importance of Radiography Testing in NDT Testing

  1. Defect Detection:
    • Identifies internal flaws such as porosity, inclusions, cracks, and incomplete weld penetration.
  2. Quality Assurance:
    • Ensures components meet industry standards and regulatory compliance.
  3. Preventative Maintenance:
    • Detects potential failure points before they lead to costly repairs or catastrophic failures.
  4. Safety Compliance:
    • Critical in industries where failure can have severe consequences, such as nuclear power and aerospace.
  5. Process Improvement:
    • Provides valuable feedback to improve welding and manufacturing processes.
