■ Roll Films<br />

In the radiography <strong>of</strong> circumferential welds in cylindrical specimens, in the<br />

examination <strong>of</strong> the joints <strong>of</strong> a complete frame <strong>of</strong> an aircraft fuselage, and the<br />

like, long lengths <strong>of</strong> film permit great economies. The film is wrapped around<br />

the outside <strong>of</strong> the structure and the radiation source is positioned on the axis<br />

inside allowing the examination <strong>of</strong> the entire circumference to be made with a<br />

single exposure. Long rolls <strong>of</strong> film are also convenient for use in mechanized<br />

exposure holders for the repetitive radiography <strong>of</strong> identical specimens or for<br />

step-and-repeat devices in which radiation source and film holder move in<br />

synchronism along an extended specimen.<br />
