Carestream NDT Adds to Industry-Leading Non-Glass Detector Portfolio
Posted:
Carestream’s Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) group is a pioneer in the development and application of new technologies to assist NDT professionals. The initial non-glass large format digital radiography (DR) panel began the revolution, and now the company is adding to their portfolio by launching the HPX-DR 2530 PH, a non-glass detector that provides high-resolution imaging capability and a durable design tailored for the rigors of NDT field work.

With a 98 μm resolution, the HPX-DR 2530 PH lets NDT professionals see more and offers optimal image defect visibility. The detector’s compact size of 250 x 300 mm and thin profile at 14.7 mm allow it to fit in tight spaces, enabling imaging in confined areas or between objects. The non-glass detector design virtually eliminates expensive, time-consuming repairs for broken glass while increasing utilization, uptime and productivity. The detector comes with tungsten shielding allowing a higher cumulative dose while preserving image quality, increasing panel life and usage.

In many industries, especially aerospace and casting, non-destructive testing plays a crucial role in the design and maintenance of materials, components and systems. With the HPX-DR 2530 PH detector, critical defects can be evaluated and reported with confidence.

The HPX-DR 2530 PH detector works with Carestream’s award-winning INDUSTREX Digital Viewing Software. The INDUSTREX software suite operates seamlessly across all Carestream NDT computed radiography (CR) and DR modalities. Customers can easily add the new detector to their tool set of imaging equipment without having to purchase and learn new modules.

"The latest addition to the award-winning Carestream NDT DR family of products was driven by our customers," said Marty Graen, Global General Manager for Carestream NDT. "With high-resolution capability, the innovative non-glass design and compact size, the detector enables NDT professionals to detect potential issues in confined areas where other equipment cannot."

Carestream NDT is offering a two-year warranty with the HPX-DR 2530 PH, as well as a loaner service in the U.S. and Canada to minimize downtime and avoid the expense of purchasing a back-up detector.
