Multiple analyses on composite components with X-ray CT

Paul - 03/11/2021
As very diverse materials, composite components are widely used in various industrial fields such as the aerospace, automotive, naval industries… require high-grade control and inspection operations during the overall production process. X-ray CT, as a powerful non-destructive technology, is used to inspect composite components in an easy way and is the only one giving the ability to see inside the matter.

Why is flexibility important in an X-ray CT system?

Morgane - 05/10/2021
Since X-ray CT, as a non-destructive technology, has been accessible for industrials in flaw detection, failure analysis, and measurement, there are many R&D, quality, or production departments in the industrial sector for which adaptation as quickly and easily as possible to any changes is essential.

Looking after your CT system is simple : The importance of Preventive Maintenance

Frédéric - 27/09/2021
Preventive maintenance is essential to keep your equipment fully operational and in compliance with all regulatory and safety standards. RX Solutions offers preventive maintenance contracts to help prevent unnecessary downtime and extend the lifetime of your X-ray equipment as well as maximize the reliability of your CT system.

Assembly inspection of complex parts with X-ray CT

Roland - 13/09/2021
When an object is assembled from different components, it represents multiple hidden features and important characteristics. X-ray CT can be used to investigate the assembly quality, at any step of the production process, with the distinct advantage of providing an internal and external visualization of the object without having to disassemble it and lose crucial information.

Optimizing the reverse engineering process with X-ray CT

Paul - 29/08/2021
Reverse engineering is the production of a real part into a digital dataset. As there are various ways to do so, X-ray CT proves to be the fastest technology to generate a 3D model of a real part.

Improving defect analysis with X-ray CT

Ludovic - 16/08/2021
As a non-destructive imaging technique, X-ray CT allows the inspection of defects in the material's structure such as cracks, porosities, or inclusions. A multitude of industrial applications requires the use of computed tomography, to control manufacturing objects during the production stage.

Understanding and correcting image artefacts in X-ray CT scans

Morgane - 09/08/2021
While X-ray CT is a very innovative technology, there can be some issues to image quality in what we call artefacts. Understanding artefacts is important as you need to differentiate them from real parts features, thus correcting artefacts is possible as there are multiple options in order to minimize them.

10 Frequently Asked Questions about X-ray CT

William - 21/07/2021
X-ray Computed Tomography has emerged as the most common and innovative non-destructive 3D imaging technique. Widely used in many sectors, such as materials research and industrial components & assemblies, X-ray CT offers the possibility of viewing internal & external features of parts in detail. 

The potential of 4D inspection

Verona - 21/06/2021
What we call 4D or fourth dimension is essentially the same as the 3D with the addition of time dimension. Thanks to this innovative technology, an object is united into a whole in space and time.
