Digital X-Ray Film for Industrial Radiography
The Flexible Digital X-Ray Detector for NDT Inspection
Digital X-ray Film (DXF®) is Silveray’s semi-disposable, ultra-thin, flexible digital X-ray detector for industrial radiography and NDT inspection.
At less than 1 mm thick, DXF® wraps around pipes from 3-inch diameter upwards and fits into confined spaces traditionally not accessible with digital detectors.
Built on Silveray’s patented NPX® X-ray sensitive semiconductor ink, DXF® delivers direct conversion digital imaging with instant results through simple USB-C connectivity.
Field-Ready Functionality: Four Key Features
Thin and Flexible
Less than 1 mm thick, DXF® wraps around curved surfaces and complex geometries. This enables digital X-ray inspection in applications where rigid detectors are physically impossible to use.
Direct Conversion Technology
Silveray’s patented NPX® nanoparticle technology converts X-rays directly into electrical signals. Direct conversion delivers sharp resolution across X-ray through gamma ray energies – with clarity.
Simple USB-C Connectivity
DXF® connects directly to a laptop via USB-C cable with instant digital results. Simply plug in and capture high-quality digital images immediately – without complex software or processing delays.
Existing Equipment Compatibility
DXF® works seamlessly with your current X-ray sources. The solution also integrates into existing workflows without disruption, enabling you to maintain proven processes while gaining digital benefits.
Why Choose Silveray's Digital X-Ray Film?
DXF®: Transforming industrial X-ray Inspection
Reach Where Rigid Detectors Cannot
DXF®’s flexibility opens up digital X-ray for curved pipes, complex welds and confined spaces that have remained off-limits to conventional flat panel detectors.
Inspection Efficiency – Without Disruption
Instant digital results eliminate film processing delays and storage requirements, while compatibility with existing X-ray sources means limited retraining and technique changes.
Financial Barriers – Removed
Pay-per-use pricing keeps DXF® as an operational expense with similar per-image costs to film. This makes digital transformation affordable – without large capital investment.
Built for Critical Industrial Applications
DXF® delivers flexible digital X-ray inspection across high-stakes industries.
Oil & Gas
The oil & gas sector has millions of miles of pipes for oil, gas, steam and various chemicals. DXF® addresses small-diameter pipe inspection where rigid detectors cannot access welds, with flexible format wrapping around 2-inch diameter pipes and larger.
Nuclear & Energy
Nuclear and energy facilities require hundreds of thousands of inspection images annually with complete traceability. DXF® provides instant digital imaging with full regulatory compliance while reducing inspection downtime.
Aerospace
The aerospace industry’s use of composite materials allows for more complex and exciting shaped parts to be manufactured. DXF® is flexible enough to conform to these curved and complex shapes and even squeeze between turbine blades for in-situ NDT inspection.
Shipbuilding
In shipbuilding, DXF® accelerates inspection of thousands of welds across hulls, bulkheads and piping systems. Instant digital results eliminate film processing delays while the flexible format handles curved structures and tight spaces.
Proven Technology Backed by Research
Silverays DXF® technology is built on peer-reviewed scientific research published in leading journals.
