Non-destructive testing - Characteristics of focal spots in industrial X-ray systems for use in non-destructive testing - Part 4: Edge method

This European standard specifies the checking of focal spot dimensions above 0,5 mm of X-ray systems up to and including 500 kV tube voltage, by means of radiographs of sharp edges. The image quality and the resolution of X-ray images depend highly on the characteristics of the focal spot. The imaging qualities of a focal spot are based on the two dimensional intensity distribution in the object plane.
