X-ray Non-Destructive Testing, NDT

It is a commonly used non-destructive testing (NDT) technique, especially for quality inspection of die castings.X-ray NDT detects potential defects by penetrating the material with X-rays and generating an image of the internal structure. The following are the main benefits of X-ray NDT in die casting quality inspection:

1. Detection of internal defects - Porosity: Porosity can occur during the die casting process and these can affect the strength and durability of the casting. x-ray NDT can clearly show the location and size of the porosity. - Shrinkage and loosening: these defects usually occur in the casting cooling process, X-ray non-destructive flaw detection can detect these defects. - Inclusions: die casting process may be mixed with metal chips, sand and other impurities, X-ray non-destructive flaw detection can detect these inclusions.

2. Improve product quality - Early detection: through X-ray non-destructive testing, can be found in the production of early potential defects, timely repair or scrap, to avoid subsequent processing waste. - Reduce the scrap rate: through the inspection, it can reduce the scrap rate caused by internal defects and improve the overall product quality.

3. Optimise production process - Process Improvement: Through the inspection results of X-ray non-destructive testing, we can analyse the problems in the production process, optimize the mould design, pouring system and cooling system, and improve the level of production process. - Parameter adjustment: according to the test results, adjust the die-casting process parameters, such as pressure, temperature, speed, etc., in order to reduce the production of defects.

4. Cost reduction - Reduce rework: By early detection of defects, rework and scrap can be reduced, reducing production costs. - Improve resource utilisation: optimise the production process, improve material utilisation and reduce raw material waste.

5. Improve production efficiency - Rapid detection: X-ray non-destructive testing is fast, which can realise batch detection and improve production efficiency. - Automated inspection: combined with automated equipment, it can achieve online inspection on the production line, reduce manual intervention and improve inspection efficiency.

6. Compliance with standards and regulations - Compliance: X-ray non-destructive testing can ensure that die castings comply with national and international quality standards and regulatory requirements, avoiding legal risks caused by quality problems. - Certification support: Provide detailed inspection reports to help companies pass various quality certifications and audits.

7. Data recording and analysis - Detailed reports: Generate detailed inspection reports, including defect type, location, size and other information for follow-up analysis and improvement. - Data management: Through digital management, inspection data can be stored for a long time for easy traceability and analysis.

8. Non-destructive inspection - No damage to the workpiece: X-ray non-destructive testing is a non-destructive testing method that does not cause any physical damage to the workpiece, and is suitable for die castings of various complex shapes and structures.

Summary X-ray non-destructive testing has many advantages in die casting quality inspection, including detecting internal defects, improving product quality, optimising production processes, reducing costs, improving production efficiency, complying with standards and regulations, data recording and analysis, non-destructive testing, and improving customer trust. These advantages not only contribute to long-term business growth, but also enhance customer satisfaction and market competitiveness.
