A technique that uses CT scanning to measure the thickness of the walls or shells of an object.
Wall thickness analysis is a technique that uses CT scanning to measure the thickness of the walls or shells of an object. Wall thickness analysis can be used to evaluate the quality, uniformity, and stability of an object, and detect any thinning, deformation, or cracking of its walls. Wall thickness analysis can be applied to various objects, such as pipes, bottles, cans, casings, or shells, and can help improve their design and manufacturing process.
Like a nominal actual comparison, a wall thickness analysis is typically displayed as a colour map on the surface of the part. It is then possible to see at any point what the calculated wall thickness is in that area.
While viewing the 2D slices a whisker plot which represents the wall thickness is visible.
