Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) is a technique for detecting a defect in an object without causing damage. NDT technology can be utilized in the arts for inspection purposes. The NDT technique that can be used for the inspection of art pottery is digital X-ray radiography. It can inspect until the contents inside the art pottery without causing damage. To obtain a high quality of watermarked art pottery image using digital radiography, the radiation exposure factors should be optimized. In this work, optimization was done by varying the voltage, current, and exposure distance. Then, the radiography images were analysed using Contrast to Noise Ratio (CNR). From the analysis, it can be determined that the optimum exposure factors are 60 kV of voltage, 16 mA of current, and 100 cm of exposure distance. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
