    摘要: An X-ray inspection system includes an X-ray source for generating a directed X-ray beam and a linear array detector for measuring the intensity of the received radiation and generating electrical signals representative thereof. A method for aligning the detector with the directed X-ray beam includes removing any part between the X-ray source and the detector, opening an X-ray beam limiter, positioning the linear array detector for maximum signal from each detector element, reducing the X-ray beam limiter opening, detecting whether any signal from a detector element is reduced, moving the limiter for producing a maximum signal on each signal, securing the X-ray beam limiter, and positioning the detector array for maximum signal.

    摘要: The quality of x-ray images is significantly enhanced by adjusting the x-ray system operating parameters in real time during acquisition of x-ray data to take information about the part into account adaptively. X-ray energy, x-ray flux, and integration time can all by varied independently and in combination to improve the signal to noise ratio in the image. The x-ray data from a previous subsection of the image is processed to determine optimum system operating parameters for a next image subsection. x-ray tube voltage is adjusted to change x-ray energy and keep .alpha.L close to 2 over all image subsections. X-ray tube current is adjusted to change x-ray flux and data acquisition integration time is adjusted to keep the signal to noise ratio within limits.
