Phosphorimaging plates

New IPU2New IPS

The sharpest IP plate
in NDT

Improved top coatingfor a longer IP lifespan

Computed Radiography (CR)Waygate Technologies offers phosphor imaging
plates delivering superior image quality,
faster exposure speed and improved lifespan.
Combining a high dose-sensitivity with a wide
dynamic range, Waygate Technologies’ imaging
plates, designed exclusively for industrial use,
provide higher throughput for substantiallyreduced asset downtime.

In combination with our CR scanners, the new imaging
plates received BAM certification and are accepted by thequality control regulators of leading global organizations inaerospace, oil and gas, power generation, automotive an
military segments. They are fine-tuned for harsh industrial
optimal performance, and they meet applicable ASTM, ISOand EN highest standard classes.

Realize superior image quality

Profit from greater efficiency

IPU2 imaging plate (release 2021)

Higher throughput

Sharper IP plate for non-destructive testing (NDT)

The wide dynamic range of the storage phosphors on our CR
plates allows for fewer critical exposure parameters and more
freedom in selecting exposure dose.

Best for: Highly critical specialized applications such as
precision castings and critical welds.

IPS imaging plate (updated 2020)

The wide exposure latitude of these imaging plates enables thevisualization of more information with inspection of multiple
thickness sections in a single exposure.
Combined, these features tremendously reduce the need forretakes, substantially reduce downtime and/or facilitate ahigher throughput.
Ball size = Sharpness of IP

IPS has a high homogeneity structure and fast responsetime. The resulting image has a very high level of sharpness
and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performance. Thanks to theimproved scratch-resistant coating, the IPS plate has anincreased lifespan without compromising its proven imagequality.
Best for: Most applications, such as weld inspection, castings,
aerospace structures, antiquities, power, transportation, andmany more.

IPC2 imaging plate
Short exposure time and proven reliability
This extremely fast imaging plate offers high image quality andgood SNR performance due to the high absorption efficiency
and excellent homogeneity structure of the storage phosphor.
Best for: Fast rapid screening inspections, such as erosioncorrosion (CUI, ISI, wall thickness measurement) and concrete
examination in combination with both X-rays and isotopes.

Higher SNR

Longer IP lifespan with improved topcoat

IPU2

Normalized SNR

The high sharpness attained with unique phosphor technology
for the IPU2 imaging plate, improves your probability ofdetection. Achieved SNRn values vary between 250 and 400,unmatched in CR technology.

Our imaging plates are safer, too. With highest ISO speeds,
the required image quality can be achieved with much lower
radiation doses.
