INDUSTRIAL RADIOGRAPHY MARKET SIZE AND SHARE ANALYSIS - GROWTH TRENDS AND FORECASTS (2024-2031)

The global industrial radiography market is facing constraints in its growth trajectory primarily due to risks associated with radiation exposure. Industrial radiography uses highly penetrating electromagnetic or particulate radiation to examine the internal structure and operation of components and find surface breaking and subsurface defects in metals and alloys. However, prolonged or repeated exposure to radiation can lead to severe health issues in humans.

Market Opportunities: Adoption of digital radiography systems

The adoption of digital radiography systems is poised to provide significant opportunities for growth in the global industrial radiography market. Traditional film-based radiography, while having served industrial needs for decades, has disadvantages such as requiring darkroom setups for film processing. The move to digital allows for faster, high-resolution imaging that does not require film or chemicals to develop. Digital images can also be more easily shared, stored, and analyzed digitally. This provides efficiency benefits to end users in industries such as manufacturing, oil and gas, and construction where radiography is used for non-destructive testing.
