Kurzfassung
UK university has demonstrated for the first time the principle of a portable instrument for the measurement of residual stress in engineering components and structures. The method uses high energy polychromatic X-ray to evaluate stresses. The UK university is looking for potential partners either for licensing or joint further development of the technology according to specific needs.Details
Every manufacturing process, from casting and forging, to machining and finishing, induces residual stresses in components. For critical components, such as aircraft wings and turbine blades, these stresses affect the durability and lifetime of the structures and assemblies. Current methods are either destructive (e.g. hole drilling), limited to the surface (laboratory X-ray), or rely on large facilities (synchrotron and neutron sources). The new method uses a laboratory source of high energy polychromatic X-ray in transmission to evaluate stresses in the bulk of the sample. The method is portable and can be adapted to any number of demanding applications.Innovative Aspects:
• A truly non-destructive method for bulk stress measurement
• Transmission measurement capability using high energy beam
• Penetration depth of 25mm in Aluminium, >5mm in steel and nickel
• High X-ray photon flux
• Portable
• Suitable for large and assembled components
• Cost effective
