Adjustable slit radiographic apparatus

摘要

A system is provided for facilitating the use of an in-motion slit radiographic technique to inspect 3-dimensional composite materials. The system includes a lead lined device that is adjustable to form various slit shaped and size openings. When used in conjunction with a standard X-ray source and film, the device prevents the non-parallel and undesirable portion of the X-ray radiation from creating a distorted image when complex 3-dimensional structures are inspected.
