X-ray computed tomography in aerospace

X-ray computed tomography (CT) has successfully entered the field of coordinate metrology as a flexible non-contact measurement technology for performing dimensional measurements on industrial parts.

 

CT provides several advantages compared to conventional tactile and optical coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) and lets engineers perform non-destructive measurement tasks that are often impossible with any other measurement technologies. For example, the inspection of complex and high-value additive manufacturing products with high density of information and without any need to cut or destroy the components.

In aerospace, CT can be used to inspect smaller to medium sized components such as turbine blades, aluminum castings and tube welds. With CT, quantitative analyses can be performed at several stages of the different products cycles, enabling the optimization of products and manufacturing processes and the evaluation of conformity to product specifications.
