(a) Requirement
The Munition Experimental Test Centre has a requirement for the supply of one 2D digital X-ray / 3D Computed Tomography Inspection System (CTIS) due to the increasing demand for 3-dimensional measuringof components to find hidden defects (e.g. shrink holes, cracks, inclusions, pores, etc.) in the depth of a material and to determine the exterior and interior physical dimension of a specimen. Computed Tomography (CT) allows the inspection and measurement of hidden and inaccessible specimen characteristics, which is not possible with other techniques. The procurement for this CTIS isnecessary to improve the support of tests and evaluation trials for the Department of National Defence (DND).
This 3Dinspection system will permit to produce 2D digital x-ray and 3D representations of components both externally and internally without disassembly or destruction of the part and also permit failure analysis, assembly analysis, dimensional measurements and allowing reverse engineering projects to be moved faster into prototype fabrication.
