Industrial Computed Tomography Porosity Analysis

Industrial computed tomography porosity analysis is a method for precise measurement of pores in castings and welds. It uses CT images to quantify the volume and size of pores.

Physical-Chemical Mechanism of Action

Industrial CT porosity analysis uses high-resolution CT images to visualize the internal structure of materials. By analyzing these images, pores and their sizes can be determined with high accuracy.

Metallurgical Relevance & Welding Risks

Pores in castings and welds can lead to failures, such as hot cracks or distortions. Precise measurement of pores allows improving material quality and preventing potential defects.

Workshop Practice & Instructions

To perform porosity analysis, CT images of a material are taken. These images are then analyzed with specialized software tools to determine the volume and size of pores. The results can be used to adjust welding parameters or optimize casting techniques.
