Abstract

A non-destructive inspection method for inspecting an object to be inspected using a plurality of different types of non-destructive inspection means is shown. The method includes the following, fixedly forming common marks that can be detected by any of the plurality of non-destructive inspection means on the object to be inspected; then detecting the object to be inspected including the marks by the plurality of non-destructive inspection means respectively; and comparing the detection results by the plurality of non-destructive inspection means using the marks as positional references.

Claims (12)

1 . A non-destructive inspection method for inspecting an object to be inspected using a plurality of different types of non-destructive inspection means, the method comprising:

fixedly forming common marks that can be detected by any of the plurality of non-destructive inspection means on the object to be inspected;

then detecting the object to be inspected including the marks by the plurality of non-destructive inspection means respectively; and

comparing the detection results by the plurality of non-destructive inspection means using the marks as positional references.

2 . The non-destructive inspection method according to claim 1 , wherein peculiar parts are identified based on the detection result by one of the plurality of non-destructive inspection means and the peculiar parts are then detected intensively by the other non-destructive inspection means.

3 . The non-destructive inspection method according to claim 1 , wherein information other than the positional references is recorded in the marks and the information is read from the detection results of the non-destructive inspection means.

4 . The non-destructive inspection method according to claim 1 , wherein any two or more of X-ray radiographing means, magnetic field distribution measuring means, thermography radiographing means and hardness measuring means are included in the plurality of different types of non-destructive inspection means.

5 . The non-destructive inspection method according to claim 4 , wherein the plurality of different types of non-destructive inspection means comprise an X-ray Talbot radiographing apparatus as the X-ray radiographing means.

6 . The non-destructive inspection method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of different types of non-destructive inspection means comprise the magnetic field distribution measuring means, and

raw materials constituting the marks comprise a magnetic substance.

7 . The non-destructive inspection method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of different types of non-destructive inspection means comprise the X-ray radiographing means and the magnetic field distribution measuring means, and

raw materials constituting the marks comprise a substance with low X-ray transmission and a magnetic substance.
