Fast neutron radiography (FNR) is a promising application for small neutron generators. FNR provides advantages in non-destructive evaluation (NDE) o f thick composite materials. The potential effectiveness of this technique depends on the development of suitable imaging screen for fast neutrons An digital neutron imaging imaging system was developed for use in non-destructive inspection of explosives, iron corrosion in concrete buildings, low Z components, ect. The camera image area was 27 *27 cm field -o f—view and the dimension of the optic box was 125 x 30 x 30 cm. For fast neutron source the SAMES T-400 and Thermo Fischer MP 320 neutron generators were used.
