The application concerns an x-ray inspection system for cast automotive wheels comprising: 1. an inspection cabinet impermeable to x-rays for containing the inspection system, 2. gravitational means for transporting the wheel under inspection in to and out of the inspection cabinet, 3. means for holding, rotating and tilting a wheel under inspection in a variety of different positions for optimum x-ray scanning, 4. means for coordinating and controlling the movement of the means for holding rotating and tilting the wheel and x-ray emission means so that they move cooperatively the result being full x-ray coverage of the wheel under inspection, 5. means for x-ray image analysis for automatically detecting flaws in the wheel under inspection including means for rejecting flawed wheels, 6. prior sealed gear train to hold and rotate wheel on upper rim flange (face up side) 7. sealed gear train to hold and rotate wheel on lower rim flange and 8. V-shape of double gear train for optimum gripping geometry (close to 45°, 135°, 225° and 315°). |
