Real time radiographic inspection system

摘要

A real time radiographic inspection system for inspecting a part includes a first, generally cylindrical housing having inner and outer substantially cylindrical coaxially aligned walls defining a substantially annular chamber therebetween. First and second through openings are formed in the outer cylindrical wall spaced substantially 180 DEG apart. A through opening is formed in the inner wall aligned with the first through opening in the outer wall. A second housing extends radially outwardly from and surrounds the first through opening in the outer wall, while the second through opening in the outer wall defines an entrance to the annular chamber. An X-ray source is mounted in one of the first and second housings for directing an X-ray beam through the aligned through openings of the inner and outer walls. An image intensifier is mounted in the other of the first and second housings in alignment with the aligned through openings and positionable in registry with the X-ray beam. A rotating table is mounted in the first housing for rotating a part to be inspected through the chamber between the entrance opening and a position in registry with the X-ray beam.
