Standard NDT Radiographic Film

Agfa NDT radiographic film family builds on two critical facets of Agfa advanced film technology: High-quality images and rugged performance. Agfa NDT films' reputation for excellence is the result of GE Inspection Technologies' continuous striving for the highest product quality.

Optimum Image Quality

Agfa NDT films maintain a crucial edge over other leading films due to an emulsion breakthrough that provides increased contrast and maximum clarity of detail. Even the tiniest details can be seen clearly and interpreted easily. And we've given the image a pleasant blue tint to make it easy to read. New international standards for film performance are currently being introduced. These standards use objective, measurable parameters to express the quality a user can expect from a particular system, a combination of film, processing type and chemicals.

Quality Through Design Innovation: Protective Coating

An important feature in the Agfa NDT films is a special protective top coating resulting directly from Agfa NDT's Split Antistress Layer (SAL) technology. This top coat gives the Agfa NDT films unique high resistance to pressure, scratching and creasing. Another advantage of the top coat is that surface roughness has been optimized for problemfree processing in automatic feeders such as the Agfa NDT Film Feeder.

The emulsion coatings are covered by two separate antistress layers (3+4).To achieve a rugged surface, the top layer has received the matting agent.

AGFA NDT D2 Film

Extremely fine-grain film with low sensitivity and high contrast. Ideal for exposures requiring the finest possible detail rendering.

AGFA NDT D3 Film

Ultra fine grain film with very high contrast.This film obtains a very high detail perceptability, which meets the requirements of the most critical NDT applications.For exposure with lead screens using either X-ray, gamma rays or radiation from megavolt equipment.

AGFA NDT D3 s.c. Film

Single coated film with very high image quality, (accurate interpretability), high contrast and pleasant image tint. The ideal film for optical enlargements. The colourless back coating guarantees a very flat film under all conditions.

AGFA NDT D4 Film

Extra fine grain film with very high contrast. Suitable for a wide variety of critical applications. For exposure with lead screens using either X-ray, gamma rays or radiation from megavolt equipment.

AGFA NDT D4 s.c. Film

Single coated film with very high image quality, (accurate interpretability), high contrast and pleasant image tint. The ideal film for optical enlargements. The colourless back coating guarantees a very flat film under all conditions.

AGFA NDT D5 Film

Very fine grain film with high contrast. Excellent for visualisation of discontinuities. This film is intended for use with lead screens using either X-ray or gamma rays.

AGFA NDT D7 Film

Fine grain film with high contrast and high speed. Designed for direct exposure or with lead screens. For exposure with lead screens using either X-ray or gamma rays.

AGFA NDT D8 Film

Medium grain film with high contrast and very high speed. Suitable for a variety of applications. This film can be used for direct exposure, or with lead screens. It gives good image quality with short exposure times.

D4W Wide Latitude Film

This extra fine grain, medium-high contrast and certified class W-B film according to the Industrial Film Systems Classification ASTM 1815 is specially designed for in-process radiography and the inspection of objects with a wide range of thickness, such as castings.

D6W Wide Latitude Film

This fine grain, medium contrast film combining good image quality and wide latitude is recommended for in process-radiography to inspect wide range thickness objects.

AGFA NDT F6 Film

Medium speed, high contrast fine grain film, preferably suited for use in combination with fluorometallic (RFC) screens or similar fluorescent screens. To be preferably processed in short cycle (90 sec.). If needed standard 8 min. cycle can be used alternatively.

AGFA NDT F8 Film

High speed, high contrast fine grain film, mainly for exposures in combination with fluorometallic (RFC) screens or fluorescent screens.

AGFA NDT RCF Fluorometallic Screen

One of the most important applications of lies in the inspection of off-shore pipelines. Combining the screens sensitivity and rapid processing of the Agfa NDT F6 Film provides an ideal film-screen system.
