Vidiscos portable X-ray systems are based on flat panel detectors, also known as Imagers or DDAs(Digital Detector Array). The DDA works with any source of radiaon and captures a digital X-ray image thatis immediately displayed on a computer screen. With this process there is no need for consumable film andfilm processing. Images are created virtually at a click of a buon.
Vidisco was the first company to make this flat panel technology portable and suitable for NDT applicaonsboth in the lab and in the field. Vidiscos digital X-ray images have a wide dynamic range, high contrast, highresoluon and an excellent SNR, all of which contribute to detecon of hairline cracks on site.
Vidisco systems are suited for various NDT applicaons, to name a few: pipes inspecon (corrosion, erosion,weld quality and wall thickness), ship hulls (mainly welding), composite materials (e.g. delimitaons, waterpenetraon) for aircramanufacturing and maintenance, arts and archeological findings, casng defects,concrete, power lines inspecon and more.
