Film Placement Calculator
?
Film Placement Calculator Accurately calculates the spacing and exact placement positions for radiographic films to ensure equal distribution around a pipe or vessel.
Primary Dimensions
Pipe OD
?
Outer Diameter (mm) Entering the Outer Diameter will automatically calculate the Circumference.
Circumference
?
Circumference (mm) The total distance around the exterior of the pipe. Syncs automatically with OD.
Number of Films
?
Number of Films Total quantity of radiographic films to be placed evenly around the circumference.
Advanced Parameters (Optional)
Film Length
?
Film Length (mm) The physical length of the film wrapped around the circumference. Required to calculate Start/End positions and Overlap.
Min. Overlap Reqd.
?
Minimum Overlap Required (mm) Sets a target overlap to validate your layout against. The system will warn you if actual overlap is below this value.
