ABSTRACT INSPECTION METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PNEUMATIC TIRE CASINGS A method and apparatus for inspecting a pneumatic tire casing 100 is described. The inspection method includes the steps of aligning a source 60 and a detector 70 external of the casing 100, the source 60 angularly transmitting a beam across the shoulder region of the tire and angularly impinging a portion of the casing; rotating the casing about its axis of rotation; receiving the beam image of the shoulder region of the casing; and observing any separation or lifting of the breaker edge of the casing relative to the rest of the breaker as displayed onto a screen. The preferred apparatus includes a traversable assembly 50 which is pivotally and linearly movable, an X-ray source 60 and a detector 70 linearly spaced along the beam axis of the source 60 and attached to the assembly 50, and a means for energizing the source.
