Digital imaging procedure for visual X-ray inspection: Y.HDR-Inspect

YXLON International supplies industrial X-ray inspection systems and computed tomography solutions for the non-destructive testing of materials on an industrial scale.


YXLON International supplies industrial X-ray inspection systems and computed tomography solutions for the non-destructive testing of materials on an industrial scale. With Y.HDR-Inspect, YXLON is presenting its new standard solution for digital image generation in visual X-ray inspection.

HDR stands for YXLON's procedure involving "highly dynamic radioscopy." A filter is used to generate a live image on which the inspection item seems to be "made of glass." Operators are able to determine the spatial position of a flaw in the inspection item and its 3D characteristics quickly and with assurance. Flaws in an inspection item's material thicknesses can be detected and localized using this solution without having to continuously adjust the X-ray parameters.

Y.HDR-Inspect consists of a digital flat-panel detector and an advanced version of the Y.Image software with extensive functionalities.

The flat-panel detectors used here have already been a proven standard for X-ray applications in the fields of aviation and aerospace.

In these sectors, it all comes down to the highest image quality and detail detectability.
