25、tion of the inspection4.1 GeneralCT is used in industry both for defect testing and dimensional testing and measurement. Since CT does not directly provide measurement of desired quantities such as, for example, pore size or wall thickness, these quantities must be derived from the X-ray linear atte

26、nuation data represented by the CT grey values. The detectability of features and the degree of accuracy required depend on the inspection task, the specification of the available test equipment and the analysis and evaluation methods used. When determination of such quantities is required, a specia

27、l task-specific qualification test of the CT system is required. The qualification measures are described in 4.2 and 4.3. The qualification should be carried out by trained personnel. The trained personnel shall be able to prove they have undergone training and qualification in digital industrial ra

28、diography or radioscopy. ISO 2017 All rights reserved 1BS ISO 15708-4:2017ISO 15708-4:2017(E)4.2 Qualification of defect testing4.2.1 GeneralUnder test qualification, the suitability of the CT inspection technique for measuring a quantity to the required precision should be verified. The following s

29、teps described are typical of those for the successful verification of the suitability of CT for industrial applications.4.2.2 Quality featureTypical quantities to be measured are the sizes of pores, cavities, cracks, inclusions, contaminants as well as studies of the material distribution and the a

30、ssembly and installation position of components. Because the test sample and the type, position and size of the features to be detected determine the properties of a CT system to be used, information such as the following should be known:a) test object:1) dimensions;2) weight;3) materials;4) path le

31、ngth to be X-rayed in the material;b) test feature:1) type;2) position;3) size;4) distribution, frequency;c) feature detectability:1) limiting defect;2) limiting feature.Since the feature detectability strongly influences the specification and therefore the cost of a CT system, special attention mus

32、t be taken when defining the sensitivity of the tests required. If, due to missing information, no limiting values for features are defined, it is recommended that the best possible sensitivity is used for the specific method and CT system and the attained feature detectability is verified using, fo

33、r example, destructive tests.4.2.3 Feature detectability/test system/system parameterisationThe usability of the CT system and the selection of system parameters are determined by the requirements for feature detectability. Typical variables are:a) spatial resolution:1) overall spatial resolution of

34、 the CT image;2) scan geometry;3) detector spatial resolution;2 ISO 2017 All rights reservedBS ISO 15708-4:2017ISO 15708-4:2017(E)4) focal spot size of radiation source;b) contrast resolution:1) overall contrast resolution of the CT image;2) detector settings;3) tube voltage;4) tube current;c) recon

35、struction/visualization:1) number of projections;2) CT grey value dynamic range of the reconstruction or visualization;3) CT image size in X, Y and Z axes.CT system set-up and image quality parameters are described in ISO 15708-2:2016, 4.1 and 5.1.4.2.4 Verification of suitability4.2.4.1 GeneralA re

36、liable statement on the defect detection sensitivity and the defect detectability of the CT system used in a test shall be made by stating the degree of accuracy of the test required (tolerance, degree of fluctuation). Several alternative procedures are described in the following.4.2.4.2 Reference s

37、amples with natural defectsIf a reference sample with a known defect is available, inspection of this sample is carried out and the detectability is stated after the test has been done.If a reference sample with unquantified defects is available, inspection of this part is carried out and the defect

38、 detectability is stated using a counter-check, using, for example, a destructive test after the CT scan has been done.4.2.4.3 Reference sample with synthetic defectIf the test feature can be simulated using a synthetic defect, for example, a hole, the defect detectability verification can take plac

39、e similar to the previous section.4.2.4.4 Reference sample without specificationsIf no specifications are available for the reference sample status and a counter-check is not possible, the test is carried out using the system sensitivity. Sample structures like, for example, wall thicknesses and ext

40、ernal dimensional measurements can be used for estimating the defect detectability. Alternatively, reference samples like, for example, wires or spheres of known dimensions can be used.4.2.5 Consistency checkThe CT scan requires several very complex process steps for which the error sources cannot a

41、lways be excluded. After the scan, the following can be used to trace the possible error sources: reconstruction: size, CT slice positions, possible artefacts ; CT image scale; ISO 2017 All rights reserved 3BS ISO 15708-4:2017ISO 15708-4:2017(E) sinogram (CT grey value and curve progress) or CT proj

42、ection sequence (comparison between projections, image quality of the projections, intensity changes); system status (error messages).Where errors occur, either they shall be corrected or their causes shall be eliminated and the test repeated.4.2.6 DocumentationIn the qualification report, the relev

43、ant parameters and results of the qualification steps are to be described and presented. The CT images are to be archived for a period which is to be agreed with the end-user. The test parameters are to be archived so that an identical test procedure is possible in the case of recurrent test parts a

44、nd features.4.3 Qualification of dimensional testing4.3.1 GeneralCT inspection provides information about the 3D structure of a sample from which surface and geometry data can be derived. Because these data are based on X-ray-physical absorption differences at the contour transitions, small differen

45、ces in measured values may arise compared to classical tactile or optical measuring procedures. In the following sections, those CT scan parameters which influence the results will be described, together with those process steps which affect the accuracy of the results.4.3.2 Test and measurement tas

46、kDimensional measurement tasks include the measurement of single dimensions in the test object, wall thickness measurements, surface extraction, volume extraction or nominal-actual comparisons. The required measurement precision is to be defined for every task and if necessary for different parts of

47、 the sample.4.3.3 Dimensional testing/test system/system parameterisationThe degree of accuracy attainable depends on the test object, the limitations of X-ray physics and the subsequent data handling. An initial estimation of the degree of accuracy of a CT-based dimensional measurement can take pla

48、ce with the following parameters:a) spatial resolution in the test object:1) dimensions;2) geometric magnification, voxel size;3) detector resolution;4) focal spot;b) X-ray penetration of test object:1) material;2) maximal wall thickness to be X-rayed;3) contrast resolution;c) 3D component data:1) o

49、riginal CT image voxel size;2) extraction steps and quality;4 ISO 2017 All rights reservedBS ISO 15708-4:2017ISO 15708-4:2017(E)3) further processing steps and quality;4) registration method.For this estimation, it must be noted that -physical X-ray effects (like scattered radiation and beam hardening) as well as artefacts due to the detector and reconstruction method can lead to strongly varying degrees of accuracy in different parts of the sample. For a known measuring point, the local- parameters should be used.The inspection task
