Radiographic Testing (RT)
Radiographic Testing Services
Radiographic Testing (RT) is a Non-Destructive Testing method used to examine the internal structure of components by using penetrating radiation to produce an image of the material.
SAFE SKY AVIATION provides Radiographic Testing solutions for applications where internal discontinuities need to be evaluated through radiographic imaging.
The method uses X-rays or gamma radiation to penetrate the test component. Differences in material thickness, density, or internal structure affect the radiation reaching the detector or imaging medium, producing a radiographic image that can be analyzed for indications.
Our RT Capabilities
Radiographic Testing can be used to identify and evaluate certain internal conditions such as:
- Internal voids
- Porosity
- Inclusions
- Cracks and discontinuities where detectable by the technique
- Lack of fusion in applicable components
- Internal structural variations
- Manufacturing-related discontinuities
Digital Radiography
Modern radiographic inspection can utilize digital imaging technologies to improve image handling, storage, analysis, and documentation.
The appropriate radiographic technique depends on the component material, thickness, geometry, accessibility, required image quality, and applicable inspection requirements.
Aviation Applications
Radiographic Testing can be applied to selected aircraft components, structural parts, assemblies, and other applications where internal condition assessment is required.
Because RT involves ionizing radiation, radiographic inspections must be performed using appropriate radiation-safety controls, qualified personnel, approved procedures, and applicable regulatory requirements.
Technical Approach
SAFE SKY AVIATION focuses on providing technically appropriate radiographic inspection solutions based on the specific requirements of each application.
Our objective is to provide clear, reliable, and properly documented inspection results while maintaining the required safety and technical controls throughout the inspection process.
