Phosphor Imaging Plates
Computed Radiography
Exclusively designed for industrial use the standard IPS and IPC2 and the latest high performance IPU Imaging
Plates from GE Sensing & Inspection Technologies deliver superior image quality, exposure speed and enhanced
life. The combination of a wide dynamic range and exposure latitude results in substantial reduction of downtime
and greater throughput. All plates are the latest high-tech components of GE’s computed radiography systems
for industrial applications.
The new imaging plate technology in combination with the GE scanners, received BAM certification and are
accepted by the quality control regimes of a number of leading global companies in aerospace, oil and gas
and power generation, meeting applicable ASME, ASTM and EN standards, classified IP Class 1 / Special.
Discover Superior Image Quality
Enjoy Enhanced Durability and Lifespan
The storage phosphor in the IPS features excellent
homogeneity and short response time. The previous pixel is
fully faded before the laser stimulates the next one and, as
a result, a very high level of sharpness and Signal-to-Noise
Ratio (SNR) is obtained. The IPS imaging plate is ideal for weld
inspection, castings and honeycomb structure applications.
GE’s IPC2 plates are protected by an Electron-Beam-Cured
(EBC) topcoat. This is proprietary technology for hardening
a pre-polymer lacquer coat into a high-density polymer
shield protecting the phosphor layer. The results are superb
resistance to mechanical wear and extensive immunity to
chemical cleaning solutions. Overall, you’ll enjoy greater
return on your investment.
The storage phosphor in the IPC2 features high absorption
efficiency with excellent homogeneity. This results in an
extremely fast plate with higher image quality and better
SNR than our traditional IPC. The IPC2 imaging plate is ideal
for erosion-corrosion inspection applications.
The new IPU plates offer excellent sharpness resulting in
improved probability of detection compared with other
plates in the GE range and are ideally suited for highly
critical, specialist applications involving castings and
weld inspections.
