X-ray inspection has now become the industry standard thanks to its ability to pinpoint hidden faults and to inspect components in greater depth and detail than ever before.

The automotive industry has changed beyond recognition in the past few decades, and these changes have only increased in pace over the last few years. With these changes has come an increased need for more efficient and effective safety inspections to ensure that automotive components are capable of withstanding the rigorous demands placed on them. It is for this reason that x-ray inspection has now become the industry standard thanks to its ability to pinpoint hidden faults and to inspect components in greater depth and detail than ever before.

X-ray inspection in the automotive industry is critical for quality control.  It helps detect defects like crack, voids, or foreign objects in critical components such as engine blocks, welds and electronic assemblies.  Gulmay x-ray generators and sub-systems are used extensively by the world’s leading automotive manufacturers in the following applications.

X-Ray Automotive Industry Applications

Weld Inspection

X-rays can reveal the quality of welds in components like chassis frames, exhaust systems, and body panels. This ensures structural integrity and safety.

Casting Inspection

X-ray inspection helps identify defects like porosity, shrinkage, or inclusions in cast components such as engine blocks, cylinder heads, and transmission cases.

Component Inspection

Critical parts like gears, bearings, and electronic components are examined for defects like cracks, voids, or misalignments that could compromise performance or safety.

Assembly Verification

X-rays ensure that components are properly assembled, with no missing or misplaced parts. This is vital for complex assemblies like engines, transmissions, and braking systems.

Quality Control

X-ray inspection is an integral part of quality control processes, helping automotive manufacturers meet industry standards and regulatory requirements.
