Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) / Industrial Equipment
Reliable, Configurable Linear Accelerators for NDT and Industrial Applications
Maximize your budget and uptime with our refurbished linear accelerators, configured for dependable performance in demanding industrial environments. Radiology Oncology Systems (ROS) Industrial Division delivers turnkey solutions, including vaults, doors, overhead cranes, yokes, and shielding calculations.
Backed by over 30 years of linear accelerator experience, each system is customized by service engineers to meet customer requirements, with energy levels and output settings adjusted to accommodate shielding and operational needs. This results in cost-effective maintenance, faster serviceability with readily available replacement parts, increased production time, reduced cost of ownership, and, in many cases, eliminates end-of-life limitations for equipment.
Linear Accelerator Energy Ranges and Applications
Industrial linear accelerators are used across a wide range of sectors, including Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), Aerospace & Defense, Oil & Gas, Nuclear & Power Generation, Automotive, Heavy Manufacturing, Construction, Infrastructure, Research, and SpecialtyApplications. These systems operate across a broad energy spectrum, typically 1–100 MeV, depending on the required penetration depth and dose rate.
Lower-energy systems are suited for sterilization and materials processing, while mid- and high-energy systems are used in nondestructive testing (NDT) and advanced research applications that involve dense or complex materials.
| Energy Range (MeV) | Applications | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| 1–5 MeV | Electron-beam and X-ray sterilization | Food packaging, pharmaceuticals, single-use devices |
| 6–10 MeV | Non-destructive testing (NDT) | Weld inspections, pipelines, border security |
| 6–25 MeV | Medical applications | Radiation therapy systems |
| 25–100 MeV | High-energy industrial and research applications | Thick metal inspection, materials science, isotope production |
Core Components of NDT / Industrial Linear Accelerators
