A Tutorial for Performing a Radiographic Examination
Abstract
This report is a detailed tutorial of performing a simple radiographic examination from start to finish. The intended purpose of this report is to assist technicians and scientists in applying a formal and systematic process in setting up, developing, documenting, and performing industrial radiography. The examples provided within this report are specific to the inspection of munition and/or weapon systems the U.S. Army Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center, Picatinny Arsenal, NJ, inspects on a regular basis. The fundamental components that will be reviewed include: (1) personnel qualifications, (2) understanding part specifications, (3) equipment selection, (4) developing a technique, (5) verifying image quality, and (6) organizing proper documentation. Each section will provide an in-depth understanding and illustration of the content and tangible functions that are necessary to complete an entire nondestructive test.
