4.1 Purely industrial applications
Four main types of inspection can be carried out using tomography :
densimetric measurements;
troubleshooting ;
dimensional or geometric measurements ;
dynamic tracking measures.
These tests are carried out in production, prototyping and process development phases. They cover all industrial sectors (aeronautics, automotive,...
