Radiographic X-Ray Inspection Services
At American Metal Testing, we specialize in radiographic testing services for metal components. Radiographic inspection is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method that uses X-rays to identify internal and subsurface discontinuities.
Our radiographic inspection services are NADCAP-certified, guaranteeing the safe testing of materials across a wide range of industrial sectors. With decades of expertise, you can rely on AMT for all your radiographic inspection service needs.
Key Advantages of AMT's Radiographic Testing Services
- Enables detection of flaws beneath the surface of a component
- Produces clear images on film for detailed inspection
- Identifies cracks, voids, inclusions, and other internal irregularities
What Radiographic Inspection Reveals Inside Metal Components
Radiographic metal testing (RT) uses X-rays to penetrate metal surfaces and create an image of the internal structure on film or digital media. The resulting radiographic image allows our inspectors to detect a range of flaws and irregularities that may affect the quality and safety of the metal component.
Radiographic Testing Standards We Meet
AMT's radiographic inspection services are NADCAP-certified and meet the strictest industrial requirements for critical components, including aircraft engine components, landing gear parts, small structural parts, small transmission gears, pump components, valve bodies and components, turbine parts, generator components, and more. Industrial sectors that rely on AMT for certified radiographic testing include:
- Aerospace
- Automotive
- Construction
- Manufacturing & Machining Equipment
- Marine & Offshore Industries
- Military & Defense
- Oil & Gas
- Petrochemical Industries
- Power Generation
- And more
When to Use Radiographic Inspection
Radiographic metal testing (RT) uses X-rays to penetrate metal surfaces and create an image of the internal structure on film or digital media. The resulting radiographic image allows our inspectors to detect a range of flaws and irregularities that may affect the quality and safety of the metal component. Common discontinuities radiographic inspection can identify are:
- Subsurface cracks or discontinuities
- Internal voids
- Porosity
- Inclusions
- Lack of proper fusion
- Weld quality
