28 Advertisements. FLIGHT OCTOBER 5H1, 1944 FOUND IN TIME / —an unsound component A box casting in aluminium alloy, form ing part of a mechanical assembly, had bolted round it a number of components the movements of which were such as to set up alternating stresses in the body of the casting. For this reason the soundness of the casting was important. A radiograph of one wall of the casting showed, in addition to general shrinkage throughout the casting, a well-marked shrinkage cavity at one end—and the casting . was therefore condemned. Radiographic inspection has established its value in preventing mechanical breakdowns by eliminating defective components.
