This Month's Introduction
Corrosion and Cracking	This month we present some topical articles which so far have not been brought to the public. Also in this issue we are pleased to announce five new exhibitors of our continuously growing Exhibition.
We recognized extensive usage of our Exhibitors' Literature Search - obviously 'NDT shopping' goes along with gathering information of Articles and News. For that reason we have expanded the search features which enables now a full-text search of all or particular exhibitors. Additionally you can distinguish between search in Articles or News. Together with other exhibition functions like Catalog, Homepage Search, Exhibitors' forum participants, etc., this Exhibition serves as the best information bridge between Exhibitors and Visitors.

The measure of all dosimeters Calibrating dosimeters is one of the most challenging processes in X-ray technology. At the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt in Braunschweig, an authority of the German Ministry of Economics and Technology, they use a very reliable X-ray system from the Hamburg company, YXLON, as a calibration reference for this important task. United Technologies Corporation's Pratt & Whitney Selects Computerized Thermal Imaging for Advanced Thermal Imaging Technology P&W plans to use this system to provide additional process control and quality assurance for its world-class engine and part designs. The contract follows several months of successful testing of CTI's industrial thermal imaging technology by P&W. Metals Testing Company's Website "mtc62" Goes Live Metals Testing Company (MTC) announces its new domain name and website www.mtc62.com that contains a wealth of knowledge, not only about the company, but also about nondestructive testing (NDT) technology. For example, for those of you not familiar with titanium related Blue Etch Anodize (BEA), its process is described in various levels. MAGNETIC CRAWLER GECCOSCAN Rapid and cost saving inspections of vessels, tanks and large-diameter pipes. In situ test of delamination in concrete tank – use of the ultrasonic pulse echo method This case study was published in 'Concrete News' - a Newsletter from FORCE Technology on Concrete Inspection and Analysis. 4th European Commission Conf. on research for protection, conservation and enhancement of cultural heritage This information has been delivered from the Cordis Documents Database. P-scan 4 Lite Compact, Battery Powered, Ultrasonic Inspection System The June 2002 NTIAC Newsletter NDE Of Aluminum Gas Cylinders, NTIAC Success Story: NTIAC Assists DCMA With MPI Procedure, Editor's Note: Website Updates, NDE Topics: 2002 SBIRs, NTIAC Announces Low-Cost X-Ray CT Service.
