X-RAY NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING EQUIPMENT MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW
The global X-Ray Non-Destructive Testing Equipment Market Size is USD 1516.57 million in 2023 and the market is projected to touch USD 2606.07 million by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.20% during the forecast period.
X-Ray Non-destructive Testing Equipment is a type of inspection equipment that enables checking internal conditions of mechanical structures and parts without destroying the object. When x-rays or ultrasonic waves are introduced into objects, images or echoes are produced which can be used to check for internal deterioration as well as flaws.
It serves as radiographic testing (RT), a non-destructive testing method that uses either gamma rays or x-rays to look at the inside structure of components produced in industry so that they may identify defects and faults while performing non-destructive tests in such a manner that the material or object being tested does not lose value.
COVID-19 IMPACT: Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic Impact on Machinery Industry
The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering with the market experiencing higher than anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.
