To our valued customers,

It is time: 

Beuth Verlag will become DIN Media. 

You can find out more about our new name and the reasons behind it here.

As we are working hard on this, we are unfortunately unable to process any orders at present due to technical reasons. Our webshop will be available again from Monday at 8 a.m.

Thank you for your understanding.

ASTM Reference Radiographs

The ASTM Reference Radiographs (Comparison series for radiographic images) contain compilations of radiographic images that show various severity levels of discontinuities that can occur in castings and welded joints.

Describing discontinuities in castings, e.g. porosity or shrinkage cavities, is extremely difficult, if not impossible.

Gas pores in welded joints or in aluminium and magnesium castings are additional examples of discontinuities that are poorly suited for written descriptions.

Discontinuities can be easily evaluated by comparing them with radiographic images portraying similar types of discontinuities.

There are four to eight levels of severity for every type of discontinuity, with level 1 being the best. The discontinuities shown in the images include gas holes, microshrinkage, inclusions, incomplete melt and porosity.

The ASTM Reference Radiographs are recognized worldwide and their application is mandatory for product acceptance in numerous civil and military material specifications.

The radiographic images can be used in their entirety, or a specific selection of images and levels of severity can be chosen based upon the intended use of the final product to be evaluated.

The use of radiographic images allows the experts to determine the type of discontinuity and complete the product acceptance process quickly and accurately. The experts have a visual image in their hand rather than a table or a diagram for comparison and don’t have to carry out extensive size and distance measurements.

The ASTM Reference Radiographs allow designers, manufacturers and testing experts to “speak the same language”.

Eight digital reference images, previously only available as film reference radiographs (ASTM E1320 Vol. II), are now available from ASTM International. The images illustrate the types and degrees of discontinuities that may be found in titanium castings over 1 inch (25.4 mm) to 2 inches (50.8 mm). This DVD consists of the 8 digital files, software to load the desired format, and specific instructions on the loading process. The disk includes the install program, and files illustrating five discontinuity types. The graded series each illustrate eight grades of severity. The images may be installed as 16-bit TIFF files or as DICONDE files and may be installed for negative or positive image polarity. The images may be installed at resolutions to match the effective resolution of various digital detectors in increments of 10 microns from 20 microns to 400 microns. A copy of the current ASTM standard is included with the purchase of these reference radiographs.
