Feasibility Study of X-Ray Gaging for on Line Testing of Shell Cases for SCAMP (Small Caliber Ammunition Modernization Program) Project

Abstract

The purpose of this research is a feasibility study of X-ray gaging for on line testing of shell cases for project 'SCAMP'. The advantages and disadvantages of solid state X-ray gaging are qualitatively discussed and quantitatively weighed. It is concluded that solid state X-ray gaging of production line products at high speed is now coming into its own with the use of minicomputers and shows great promise for use on the 'SCAMP' project.
