Industries that would benefit directly from HEEB welding and materials processing include auto makers, airplane manufacturers, composite manufacturers, the nuclear industry, the railroad industry, ceramics manufacturers, shipbuilders, and the electric transformer industry, to name a few. The x-ray imaging monitor is a critical element of a feasible HEEB system in that it provides a real-time, remote means of assessing welding or materials processing operations.
