We have three separate radiographic facilities in Cambridge, Ontario with railcar, truck or crane access for more efficient handling of your components.
Babcock & Wilcox Canada's NDE Services provide in-house radiographic services on materials of up to 13 inches thickness. With a complement of automatic film processing, and the largest exposure room in Canada, we can turn around any size component quickly. Whether you need a 4 MeV linear accelerator, a 250 KV spot X-ray tube, or cobalt and iridium gamma ray sources, we have the equipment.
We are North America's first users of a new gamma source: Selenium. Selenium provides advantage of longer half-life, improved operator safety, smaller exclusion zone & above all high quality in low thickness zones (5-30 mm steel). Our radiograph facilities are available for handling jobs ranging from 5 mm to 13 inches of carbon steel.
