Executive summary
The AIDA-2020 Academia meets Industry (AMI) events are organised to promote cross-fertilisation
and information exchange between experts from academic and industrial communities.
For the 2nd AMI event the topic of Non-Destructive Testing has been chosen.
A total of 21 speakers (16 from industry and 5 from Academia) presented their projects, companies,
research, challenges and needs in front of more than 80 registered participants.
The present document resumes this event in terms of addressed topics, list of participants and list of
companies.
1. INTRODUCTION
The AIDA-2020-Academia meets Industry (AMI) events are organised to promote cross-fertilisation
and information exchange.
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) was chosen as topic for being a growing market that makes use of
different detector technologies.
87 participants registered for this event, representing different stages of the value chain of this field:
researchers, detectors and sources manufacturers, integrators and end users.
The event took place in Centro San Domenico, in Bologna, Italy, and it was organised in conjunction
with the 3rd Annual Meeting of AIDA-2020.

2. COMMUNICATION
A dedicated poster (see below Figure 1) was realised to advertise the Academia meets Industry event.
The posters were displayed at CERN, at the highly visible billboards of the restaurants and other areas
with a high circulation of people. Posters were also sent to partner institutions.
The event was advertised online on the AIDA-2020 website, on the CERN Knowledge Transfer
website and in their newsletter, in the On Track newsletter and on social media, namely through the
CERN LinkedIn account and on personal LinkedIn accounts.
An article was also written for the Società Italiana di Fisica on the AIDA-2020 project, advertising
this event as well.
In addition, some of the speakers advertised the event through their channels.
Personal invitations were sent to targeted people from the field of Non-Destructive Testing.
The event was also publicised in different internal and external presentations at CERN, including a
presentation to representatives of all CERN’s member states in the Knowledge Transfer Forum.
The event was also advertised in different European Communities, such as Entreprise Europe
Network; Business Europe, in particular their European branch Confindustria; European Technology
Platforms; NDT European Association.
In addition, a Communications Pack was assembled, containing information about AIDA-2020, the
Academia meets Industry event, list of marketing materials and press release text.

4. ABSTRACTS OF THE TALKS
The focus of the event was to represent the whole value chain of the Non-Destructive Testing
industry, namely, researchers, detectors and sources manufacturers and integrators and end users.
4.1. GENERAL TALKS
Aurélie Pezous (CERN KT and WP2 coordinator) introduced the motivation and objectives of this
event, presenting the diversity of the talks and exhibitors in terms of value chain role and geographic
provenance.
Massimo Caccia (Università di Insubria) presented the state-of-the-art of the field, addressed some
key issues and reported exemplary illustrations of the ongoing activities related to imaging sensors
within the High Energy Physics community.
4.2. RESEARCHERS
Angelo Rivetti (INFN Torino) presented the critical issues and the recent trends involved in the
implementation of specialised and complex front-end electronics for radiation detectors. He reviewed
and illustrated recent developments and discussed examples of technology transfer opportunities.
Norbert Wermes (University of Bonn) introduced the importance of pixel detectors in particle physics
and gave an overview over the state of the art and the current trends for future developments with
some emphasis on the interplay between industrial developments and fundamental particle physics
research.
Richard Lanza (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) presented on Nanoscale X-Ray
Tomosynthesis for Rapid Assessment of IC Dice (NeXT-RAID). The NeXT-RAID system is
designed to non-destructively acquire images of integrated circuits using a novel x-ray microscope
based on a 2D array of spatially and temporally addressable nano-focused x-ray sources.
4.3. DETECTORS AND SOURCES MANUFACTURERS AND INTEGRATORS
Thorsten Achterkirchen (Teledyne ICM) discussed some of the fundamentals of large-area CMOS x-
ray imagers, and highlighted specific application examples where CMOS technology has been used
to solve real-world NDT problems.
Carsten Rudolf (Nikon Metrology) presented technical achievements regarding micro focus X-ray
tubes with a high energy spectrum and the new possibilities for the development of new and
innovative products and manufacturing techniques, in combination with state of the art CT
technology.
Richard Kaderabek and Mohamed Ghita (Advacam / Radalytica) presented a robotic X-ray photon
counting imaging system that, contrary to the classic X-ray imaging setups, gives nearly an absolute
flexibility in the X-ray image positioning and viewing angles.

David Murer (Dectris) gave a broad overview of the different applications of Hybrid Photon Counting
X-ray detectors for applications in industrial testing and inspection, showing experimental results
with emphasis on the spectral capabilities, and discussed the future of these technologies in the field.
Hans Radhoe (Amsterdam Scientific Instruments B.V.) showed how the company’s technology can
be used for beam-sensitive materials in the field of CT, X-ray imaging, SAXS, FEL and Electron
Diffraction.
Vladislav Minukhov (X-Spetrum GmbH) focused his presentation on the benefits that the usage of
their hybrid pixel cameras will bring to a potential manufacturer, concerning fast and high quality
NDT.
Emil Espes (Excillum) presented about X-ray sources for high throughput and extreme resolutions.
He referred to a new nanofocus x-ray tube under development, which foundation is the advanced
electron optics, combined with a tungsten coated diamond transmission target.
Thibault Maquet (X-ris) presented their Digital Radiography flat panels with micro-focus portable x-
ray generators.
4.4. END USERS
José Pedro Sousa (ISQ) presented about wind turbine tower welding automatic inspection during
manufacturing, using artificial vision for superficial inspection and Ultrasonic for volumetric
inspection.
Philip van Meer (Applus+ RTD) presented the company’s activity in the NDT field, as well as their
view on how academy and industry should cooperate to innovate in this area.
Antonio Ciliberto and Fabrizio Montagnoli (Leonardo) presented two typical NDT cases: one dealing
with the characterisation of non-conventional discontinuities/defects (resin pocket) in polymer-epoxy
matrix composites, the other with the characterisation of manufacturing processes using metallic
powders in Additive Manufacturing.
Kees Revenberg (Maser Engineering) presented 2D and 3D NDT techniques in the first level of
Failure Analysis flow for electronic components and modules.
Nello LiPira (CRF) presented novel frontiers in Non-Destructive testing for automotive parts, as well
as the current challenges of the industry.

5. FEEDBACK FORM
Participants voiced immediate positive feed-back, and the Scientific Advisory Panel (SAP) of AIDA-
2020 also commended the organisers for the well-attended AMI event, and suggested to monitor the
impact of the first and second event also on longer term.
In addition, an online feedback form was created and sent to the participants by mail, and 17 people
(20% of the participants) provided their opinion.
More than half of the participants that answered to the feedback form considered that that the event
was worth of maximum grade (Figure 3), which is a good indicator of the success of the symposium.
Figure 3 – “What is your overall assessment of the event? (very poor 1 – Excellent 4)”
Most of the participants considered the event to be technical/specialised, but not too much (Figure 4),
which was our goal: to have an event where technical experts of different fields could share challenges
and experiences.

From the 17 participants that answered the feedback form, only one does not agree that this should
be a regular event and the majority believes it should take place every year (Figure 5). In fact, a
similar event was also organised last year but related to Medical Applications.
Figure 5 – “What do you think should be the most appropriate frequency of the event?”
One third of the people attending the event had the objective of discovering new trends in Non-
Destructive Testing. The other main objectives of the attendees were to connect with industrial and
academic partners as well as public relations (Figure 6).
Figure 6 – “What were your three most important objectives for the event?”
Also, one third of the participants found the themes of the event the most attractive point of the
symposium, followed by the presence of leading experts and organisations.
