In manufacturing processes, inspection capability is increasingly used as early in the production value chain as possible to ensure that scrap and rework costs are minimised. Fast radiographic in-line inspection systems, fully unmanned and equipped with automatic defect recognition e.g. of castings, are now state-of-the-art technology. This paper explains the next evolutionary step within the X-ray technology of utilizing fast computer tomography technology, scanning concepts and algorithms fulfilling high- throughput requirements for different applications and first results of an atline / inlineCT evaluation at Volkswagen Foundry Hannover, Germany.
Key words: Inline CT / Atline CT / Gantry based CT / Helix CT / Fast CT / 3D ADR / Automatic Defect Detection
