Description
COMPRA GmbH, a member of the RTD Group, developed together with BAM Berlin the TomoCAR system for the mechanized digital radiography and planar X-ray tomography. The system is able to accurately size cracks in welds with a COD (crack opening displacement) of only 25 μm independent of its orientation. The system has a very high reliability of recognizing planar defects and the integrated TomoCar software modules are able to produce a 3D-view of the cracks. It is the first time these kinds of results are achieved on site with radiography equipment. (orig.)
