X-Sight X-ray offers comprehensive X-ray CT inspection services

Internal material defects, hidden geometries and complicated assemblies can present a number of challenges both in terms of accuracy and practicality. In practice, inspecting internal defects is only possible either by sectioning and destroying the sample, or by using X-rays to reveal otherwise hidden features.

X-Sight X-ray's in-house inspection service can examine your components with high accuracy and efficiency, providing insights that would otherwise be impossible to reveal without (at least partial) destruction of the component.

Outline of our inspection process

  1. We learn about your problem, what questions you are trying to answer, and how we can apply X-ray CT inspection to provide the optimum solution to your challenge.
  2. Once we receive the part(s) we will begin the scanning process. You can send us the parts via courier or bring them in personally so you can view our lab and discuss your needs even further and if necessary adjust your requirements accordingly.
  3. Once the part has been scanned and reconstructed, we can view and analyse the 3D reconstructed volume. Software allows us to view any internal cross sections with 360 degree rotational views. This allows us to view any internal defects or hidden features that were previously invisible.
  4. At this point the data will either be returned to you along with your sample(s), or you could personally collect the sample and data from our lab. You would be shown how to navigate and use the scan data with intuitive viewing software, and how to integrate important aspects easily into your reports.
