Digital Radiography
The scintillator comes in different substrate materials and in this application, it is most often Cesium Iodide (CsI), Gadolinium Oxysulphide, or Gaddox (GdOS). The scintillator emits light from exposure to the X-ray beam. It is deflected by a mirror onto a lens which focuses the light onto the 9 or 16 Megapixels of the CCD depending of the platform of IDC technology.

The Advantages of Digital Radiography in Industrial Applications
In the realm of non-destructive testing (NDT), digital radiography has revolutionized the way industries detect defects, cracks, corrosion, and other forms of material degradation. With advancements in digital technology, digital radiography is now extensively used across various sectors, particularly in the assessment of piping, pressure vessels, and valves. At A-Star Testing & Inspection Pte Ltd, located at No. 5 Soon Lee Street, #03-36/37 Pioneer Point Singapore 627607, we leverage this cutting-edge technology to provide comprehensive and accurate testing services.
What is Digital Radiography?
Digital radiography is a non-destructive testing technique that uses digital detectors to capture images of the internal structure of materials. Unlike conventional radiography that relies on film, digital radiography employs flat panel detectors or phosphor-coated imaging plates. This method offers superior image quality and the ability to enhance and magnify images for better interpretation.
Types of Digital Radiograp
Computed Radiography (CR): This method uses reusable phosphor-coated imaging plates to capture images. The plates are scanned to convert the captured image into a digital format.
Digital Radiography (DR): This method uses flat panel detectors to directly capture digital images, providing instant results and high-resolution images.
Benefits of Digital Radiography
Digital radiography offers numerous advantages over traditional radiographic techniques:
Enhanced Image Quality: Digital images can be easily enhanced and magnified, allowing for more precise analysis and defect detection.
Instant Reporting: Our inspectors can provide immediate digital images and reports, facilitating quick decision-making and minimizing downtime.
Easy Data Sharing: Digital images can be emailed to off-site experts or across different time zones, ensuring continuous workflow and collaborative evaluation.
Efficient Storage: Digital images are stored electronically, saving physical storage space and making it easier to archive, trace, and retrieve images.
Cost-Effective: Digital radiography eliminates the need for radiographic films, reducing costs associated with film procurement and storage.
Applications of Digital Radiography
Digital radiography is versatile and applicable in various industries, including:
Construction: For assessing the integrity of structural components.
Engineering: To inspect machinery and equipment for potential failures.
Shipping: To ensure the safety and reliability of vessels and cargo holds.
Manufacturing: To detect defects in production materials and components.
