Portable & Bendable X-Ray Detectors for Industrial NDT
The Waygate Technologies DXR Flex 1025 and 1043 are flexible, bendable and portable digital X-ray detectors designed for fast, high-resolution non-destructive testing (NDT) across challenging geometries and large industrial components. With pixel sizes of 100 µm (1025) and 200 µm (1043), they provide a perfect balance between resolution and detector area for inspecting welds, pipelines, and castings. These detectors enable efficient real-time imaging that replaces traditional film or CR methods and support standardised workflows with DICONDE compliance.
Why Choose DXR Flex?
-
Can the detector conform to curved or hard-to-reach surfaces in my inspection area?
→ Yes, the flexible design enables close contact with complex geometries like pipes and tanks. -
Do I need to balance high resolution with faster inspection times?
→ Choose 1025 for 100 µm detail or 1043 for faster coverage at 200 µm resolution. -
Is the detector certified for aerospace, pipeline, or automotive NDT standards?
→ Both models support DICONDE and ASTM E2737 for regulated, traceable imaging. -
Can these detectors handle harsh field conditions?
→ Yes, ruggedised to endure industrial temperatures, moisture, and rough handling.
Applications:
-
Pipeline and Tank Weld Inspection
Flexible detectors conform to curved pipe surfaces, enabling high-resolution radiography of weld seams to detect cracks, porosity, and corrosion without disassembly. -
Power Generation Equipment
Ideal for inspecting turbine blades, boilers, and pressure vessels, providing detailed digital images to identify micro-defects and ensure operational safety. -
Automotive and Heavy Machinery Parts
Used for quality control of castings, engine components, and structural parts where complex shapes demand flexible detector placement. -
Aerospace Composite and Metal Structures
Supports non-destructive testing (NDT) of composite layups, bonded joints, and aerospace-grade metal parts, ensuring structural integrity and certification compliance.
