Abstract
Through collaboration with the NEUTRA-facility at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), Switzerland, a turnkey tomography system was designed specifically for the beam geometry at the South African Neutron Radiography (SANRAD) facility, located on the beam port floor of the SAFARI-1 nuclear research reactor and operated by Necsa. The new system is currently being extensively utilized in both 2D and 3D mode for various applications in general industry and institutional activities. The basic performance characteristics of its 3D tomography capability in a neutron and X-ray configuration are presented with the aid of several case studies. An X-ray source has also been commissioned to further diversify the capabilities of the facility.
