The Application of X-RAY Testing Equipment in Industrial Testing

X-RAY testing equipment has been applied in various industries and is well-known to many people. However, although this is still unknown to many, let me first introduce what X-RAY testing equipment is. X-RAY testing equipment uses the penetration force of X-rays to penetrate the surface of the product and observe the structure inside. For example, the X-ray we took in the hospital is based on this principle, but now it is used in industry, and the tested object is an industrial product.

Industrial X-ray detection technology is to place the tested object inside the industrial X-ray detector. The X-ray emitting tube above the equipment will emit X-rays, and the detector (optical sensor) will receive X-rays to form an image. Due to the fact that the tested object can absorb X-rays, the X-rays irradiated on the tested object can be greatly absorbed and appear black, generating clear images that can effectively identify and analyze product defects. The use of X-RAY testing equipment in industry is mainly for yield testing before product production. After packaging, we cannot see whether the products inside are good. If there are any defects, failure to detect them in a timely manner can cause serious impacts, such as batteries and capacitors. Therefore, we must conduct non-destructive X-ray testing.

There are radiation issues with X-RAY devices, and I think everyone is interested in understanding them

Industrial X-RAY equipment undergoes radiation testing before leaving the factory and must meet international standards before shipment is allowed. How was radiation protection designed?

The equipment casing adopts a three-layer structure design of steel lead steel, and the lead layer plate can block X-ray diffusion, playing a role in isolating the equipment box from the external environment. Secondly, the visual window is also made of leaded glass, and there is a safety interlock: X-RAY can only be activated when the front and rear doors of the X-RAY detection equipment are closed at the same time, otherwise the operation will be automatically cut off.
