German term
Durchstrahlungsprüfung
German to English
Tech/Engineering
Nuclear Eng/Sci
The text relates to measuring instruments for detecting radioactive material. Ernst has "radiographic test" and "radiation test" as translations, but I'm unsure which - if either - of these is correct in this context:
"Entwicklung kundenspezifischer Lösungen zur Messung und Automatisierung für Sonderaufgaben, wie z.B. die Durchstrahlungsprüfung von Werkstoffen"
"Entwicklung kundenspezifischer Lösungen zur Messung und Automatisierung für Sonderaufgaben, wie z.B. die Durchstrahlungsprüfung von Werkstoffen"

Selected
radiographic test[ing]
In this context, >>radiation<< test - with several possible meanings - is too nonspecific. >>Radiogaphic<< test[ing] (industrial radiography) is specific to using radiography in testing materials by transmission of radiation from an industrial radiation source (x-ray or radionuclide) to a detector/receptor/imaging system.
