Inspect Casting Porosity with Nondestructive X-Ray
Leave a CommentThe phrase aluminum die casting porosity is used extensively when talking about any void in an aluminum casting, but it does not describe the actual problem. It can take many different shapes and forms, but it is often described just as “porosity”. When analyzing a casting’s porosity, it is important to describe specifics like size, shape, location, and frequency (Image 1). Since porosity is within the casting’s walls, the best way to analyze it is through Nondestructive Testing.
