Computed Radiography is a non-destructive testing technique that uses a filmless process to create digital, 2-dimensional radiographs. CR utilizes phosphor plates to capture an image of the asset component being inspected. CR requires exposing the imaging plate with radiation for a determined amount of time, depending on the part configuration, and processing the plate with a focused laser scanner that converts the image into visible light. The emitted light is then converted into electrical signals, which are digitized and displayed on a computer monitor.
What are the advantages of Computed Radiography (CR)?
Customers can obtain many benefits through the application of this non-destructive testing technique for their assets, which include:
Is Computed Radiography (CR) the appropriate technique for our assets?
Computed Radiography (CR) can be applied on assets owned and operated by companies in various sectors, including:
Digital Radiography (DR)
Digital Radiography (DR) is a non-destructive testing method that does not require extensive processing times to yield inspection results. As opposed to film radiography, DR uses digital detector arrays or DDA, which provides the ability to record data during testing of asset, providing results instantaneously for technical experts to analyze. This testing method is able to deliver inspection of in-service systems with minimal downtime or preparation.
