Abstract
Industrial Computed Tomography is used to solve metrological tasks in quality assurance. Although CT has many advantages like complete and non-destructive data acquisition, artefacts can occur depending on the part’s material and geometry. Moreover the extent of scanning artefacts strongly depends on the specimen’s orientation. By a raycasting approach, the homogeneity of penetration lengths is determined and maximized in order to find the optimal orientation. The reduction of artefacts is assessed by point-based quality metrics. The results show a local contrast improvement of 80 %.
