1. INTRODUCTION
Radiographic Testing (RT) is one of the most important
nondestructive testing techniques for welding inspection. It
is based on the ability of foton (x-ray or ray) to pass
through metal and other materials opaque to ordinary light,
and produce photographic records by the transmitted
radiant energy [1]-[3]. Because different materials absorb
either foton to different extents, penetrated rays show
variations in intensity on the receiving films. RT can
examine the internal structure of a weld. Traditionally,
experienced interpreters evaluate the weld quality based on
radiography. It is a time and manpower consuming work.
In addition, human interpretation of weld quality based on
film radiography is very subjective, inconsistent and
sometimes biased. Therefore, it is desirable to develop a

2.1.IMPROVED DIGITAL IMAGE
Image enhancement aims to improve the quality of the display
image to view humans or to convert an image in order to have
a better format so that the image becomes more easily
processed by computers[6]. Operation that repairs image in this
study includes three processes, namely: contrast stretching,
noise reduction by a median filter, and image enhancement
using the Laplacian filter.

3. PROCEDUR
Digital image used radiographic films have a format .bmp
or .jpg, for a program that reads a digital image
radiographic film designed to read both formats .bmp or
bitmap files is a common format for storing bitmap
images developed by Microsoft and is used as an
uncompressed image. While format jpeg (Joint
Photographic Experts Group) is a standard photographic
image quality [3].
3.1.CUTTING IMAGE
on the
identification process that is not useful and to reduce the
computing time and the image that needs to be cut into smaller
sizes. The command is to do a digital image which cuts crop =
imcrop (f), where f is the image that will be cut, while the crop is
the result of cutting. Operator / user can choose the location of
the image will be cut according to the needs.
How to get a piece of the image is by dragging the mouse cursor
to form a box with the desired size and then clicked 2 times.
Image will be cropped automatically and will be processed in the
pre - prosessing.

5. CONCLUSION
quality
using image enhancement includes stretching contrast, the use of
the median filter to reduce noise, to enhance the image intensity
and image enhancement to provide a sharper image, especially at
the edges of the object are considered disabled welds on the
digital radiograph image.
Applications developed from this research in the form of
software-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) that can separate
the defective object with the background image segmentation
using clustering Fuzzy C - Means and interpret the deformed
shape of the weld defect particularly elongated shape, round, and
not irregular that can be used as an analysis and decision support
interpreters interpreting radiographs in industrial radiographic
weld defect types.
