(openPR) - The new digital imaging procedure from YXLON for visual X-ray inspection, Y.HDR-Inspect, has been extremely well received by customers.
Hamburg, July 28, 2009 ─ YXLON International, a leading provider of industrial X-ray inspection systems and computed tomography solutions for the industrial, non-destructive testing of materials, takes pride in the successful market launch of its new standard solution for digital image generation in visual X-ray inspection: Y.HDR-Inspect.
Normally it proves to be difficult to market these kinds of innovations because the solution’s performance capability and the real-life impression made by an image on paper are not easy to communicate. The situation first becomes clear-cut when an inspection item is moved “live” during the irradiation process or through video recordings. Despite this hurdle, once customers have seen these live images or videos they have been delighted. Without exception. At a demonstration of an inspection run using HDR-Inspect at the annual meeting of DGZfP, the German Association for Non-Destructive Testing in Münster, Germany, Hans W. Berg, managing director of BMB Gesellschaft für Materialprüfung mbH, a company in Heilbronn that focuses on non-destructive inspection technologies, spontaneously remarked: “This is what X-ray inspection is going to look like in the future.”
In the case of the HDR (“Highly Dynamic Radioscopy”) imaging procedure, live images are generated via a special filter through which the irradiated inspection item seems to be “made of glass”. As a result, flaws in the inspection item along with its three-dimensional geometric characteristics can be detected and localized rapidly and reliably.
