The Aluminum ASTM Wire Type IQI-02B is a standardized Image Quality Indicator (IQI) essential for radiographic testing (X-ray and gamma-ray inspection) of aluminum materials. This IQI conforms to the requirements of ASTM standards, typically ASTM E747, which governs the specifications for wire-type IQIs used in radiography.
Key Features:
Wire Type Design: Composed of a set of six precisely manufactured aluminum wires of varying, known diameters.
Aluminum Material: Fabricated from aluminum, ensuring radiographic absorption characteristics comparable to the aluminum components being inspected.
ASTM Compliance: Adheres to the stringent standards set by ASTM International, most notably ASTM E747, for reliable and consistent image quality assessment.
Material Group 02: Designated as Material Group 02 according to ASTM E747, specifically intended for use with aluminum alloys.
Set Letter B: Belongs to Set Letter B, one of the standard sets of wire IQIs defined by ASTM E747. Set B contains six specific wire diameters designed for evaluating radiographic sensitivity over a defined range of aluminum material thicknesses.
Identification Marking: Clearly marked with the material (Al), the ASTM designation (or reference to it), the material group (02), and the set letter (B) for easy identification and traceability.
Applications:
Used in radiographic testing of aluminum castings, forgings, weldments, and other components.
Placed on or near the test object during radiography to assess the quality and sensitivity of the radiographic technique.
Employed to verify that the radiographic image provides sufficient detail to reveal flaws of a predetermined size.
Utilized in quality control processes to ensure compliance with radiographic inspection standards and specifications.
Importance:
Provides a standardized and objective method for evaluating radiographic image quality.
Enables inspectors to determine the smallest discernible detail in a radiograph, indicating the sensitivity of the inspection technique.
Ensures that the radiographic technique is adequate for detecting critical flaws within the aluminum material being examined.
Facilitates consistent and reliable radiographic inspection results across different inspections and operators.
Essential for meeting the requirements of various codes, standards, and specifications that mandate radiographic testing of aluminum.
