Industrial X-ray machines facilitate the non-destructive testing process that shows the internal and subsurface characteristics of products being inspected. It is a valuable and essential tool in the industrial sector, and helps companies to easily determine the quality and soundness of the test material or product.
The technology behind X-ray machines is simple, yet complex at the same time. The process of X-ray inspection involves using exceptionally penetrating X-rays to create a permanent visible digital record or film of the internal condition of a product or material, without damaging the test item. The images or film then reveal the damage or defects of the product, if any, as well as the structural characteristics of the package when inspected by a trained eye.
What Are Industrial X-Ray Machines Used for?
Most often, an X-ray machine is used for the following purposes:
- To determine the quality of products;
- To locate internal discontinuities, including cracking, shrinkage or porosity in parts and products; and
- To verify the integrity of internal components.
A definite advantage of using industrial X-ray machines over other inspection methods is that no harm is done to the test piece. What’s more, the types of products and materials that undergo X-ray inspection can be a wide range of sizes and shapes, including weldments, castings and electronic components, and also machined parts.
Another popular advantage of using these machines is that all X-ray inspections produce a permanent digital image or film record, which can be reviewed again in future. Investing in the best quality and most innovative technology on the market will provide your company with the best solutions available. Don’t settle for anything less than the very best quality, which is exactly what you will receive when you partner with us.

What Industrial X-Ray Solutions are Available from Teraoka?
We have curated an extensive catalogue of excellent quality industrial machines that leads the industry forward in innovation. One of our most celebrated industrial products is our Anritsu X-Ray Inspection System. It forms part of our reliable and proven KD74 Series, and is well received and highly rated in markets throughout the world.
Anritsu’s long track record in the contaminant detection sector forms the basis of this unique image processing algorithm. This algorithm is used to detect both soft contaminants, such as bones and plastics, as well as wire contaminants, such as fine wires, at high sensitivity and stability. The masking function of the X-Ray Inspection System is applied according to the form and shape of products, in order to further enhance detection sensitivity.
Another important and popular function of this machine is its shape detecting and missing product detecting function. Any shape anomalies, such as missing and broken parts, as well as missing products, can easily be detected. It also offers exceptional design in terms of safety and operator-friendliness. The projection monitor and tool-free removable conveyor is used to add to its user-friendliness. There is a lot of safety mechanisms put in place with this machine to prevent any leaking of X-rays, making the machine even safer to users.
