CT Scanning of Automotive Castings: From Porosity Detection to Failure Prevention
Automotive manufacturers across the USA increasingly rely on industrial CT scanning and X-ray inspection to ensure the structural integrity of cast components.
NDT for Composite Materials: Detecting Hidden Defects in High-Performance Structures
Composite materials are widely used in aerospace, automotive, energy, and other high-performance industries because they are lightweight yet strong.
Advanced NDT for Weld Inspection: Porosity, Cracks & Fusion Defects
Weld integrity is critical in industries such as aerospace, automotive, energy, and heavy manufacturing. Even minor flaws like porosity, cracks, or incomplete fusion can compromise safety, reliability, and compliance.
How X-Ray Inspection Ensures Quality Control in Aerospace Components
In the aerospace sector, even the tiniest defect poses enormous risks. Be it microcracks within a turbine blade or voids within a composite fuselage panel, surreptitious flaws can compromise safety, a brand’s performance, and regulation certification.
RoboCT: Revolutionising X-Ray Inspection for Large Industrial Components
Inspecting oversized industrial components has long been a challenge. Traditional computed tomography (CT) systems are limited in size, unable to accommodate very large parts or complex geometries efficiently.
Why Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Is the Backbone of Product Reliability
Non-destructive testing (NDT) is more than a technical process, it is the backbone of product reliability in modern manufacturing. By allowing materials and components to be inspected without causing damage, NDT ensures that hidden defects are detected early, reducing risks and guaranteeing long-term performance.
The Role of Computed Tomography in Modern Manufacturing Quality Control
In modern manufacturing, quality is the cornerstone of customer trust. Even the smallest defect can lead to costly recalls, production delays, or customer dissatisfaction.
Non-Destructive X-ray Inspection of Electric Vehicle Batteries
With the global adoption of electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries have become the center of innovation in the automotive industry. These batteries are not only power sources, but rather, they are intricate and sophisticated systems needing utmost reliability, performance, and safety.
From Scan to Structured 3D Model: Inside XRAY LAB’s CT Reconstruction Workflow
When manufacturers invest in CT scanning, they are not just looking for images — they are looking for answers.
How to Prevent Internal Short Circuits Using CT Scanning
Internal short circuits are among the most critical failure modes in lithium-ion batteries and high-density electronic assemblies. Unlike external failures, they occur inside sealed components — often without warning.
Reducing Warranty Claims Through Advanced X-ray Inspection
Warranty claims are more than a financial inconvenience. They are a signal of undetected internal defects, inspection gaps, or process inconsistencies.
CT-Based Identification of Latent Defects in Lithium-Ion Battery Cells
Lithium-ion battery cells are among the most safety-critical components in modern manufacturing.
Impact of Retrofit Constraints on Defect Detectability in X-Ray Inspection Systems
Retrofitting X-ray inspection systems into existing production environments inevitably introduces geometric, mechanical, and temporal constraints.
Process-Induced and Assembly-Related Defects
Process-induced and assembly-related defects are among the most challenging failure modes to identify because they are typically not present in individual components.
Why the Same Defect Fails in One Product but Not Another
A void, crack, or inclusion is rarely desirable—but it is not always critical. The same internal defect can cause immediate failure in one product while remaining functionally harmless in another.
Xray-Lab Powers Smart Production with Real-Time Inspection
In modern manufacturing, speed and quality must go hand in hand. Hidden defects in electronics, batteries, or automotive components can lead to costly recalls, scrap, and downtime.
NDT for Glass Components in Technical and Industrial Applications
Glass is often seen as delicate yet transparent, but technical and industrial glass plays a critical role in high-performance systems.
