Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a technique used to evaluate the integrity of a
component and product. Radiographic Testing (RT) is NDT method of inspecting
materials for hidden flaws by using the ability of short wavelength electromagnetic
radiation to penetrate various materials. In industrial sector, trial and error method
for the exposure timing is used in Digital Radiography. There are many standards
published that show the requirement that need to achieved for each radiographic
image before proceeding to analyse the flaws or defects. To obtain radiographic
images that meets all the requirement is difficult. Therefore, this study aims to confirm
an assumption which is 60% exposure timing for White IP based on D7 Film Exposure
Chart of GE Titant Isovolt model and to study the relationship between the different
energy (kV), current (mA) and exposure timing (s) applied on the X-ray tube by
producing radiographic images quality for two samples with different thickness based
on standard DIN EN ISO 17636-2.
