X-ray camera of the present invention comprises an X-ray irradiation unit, an X-ray image sensor, a controller having a correction factor setting unit, a correction factor storage unit and a correctional operation unit, and a display unit. The X-ray image sensor in the above configuration comprises a sensor such as CCD, TFT, and the like having a scintillator on a surface thereof, and a substrate having the sensor mounted thereon. The correction factor setting unit obtains a value La/Ln by dividing a predetermined brightness reference value La set beforehand by a brightness value Ln of an arbitrary pixel &ldquo;n&rdquo;, and sets the obtained value as a correction factor for each pixel. The correction factor storage unit stores the correction factor set by the correction factor setting unit. The correctional operation unit obtains the correction factor from the correction factor storage unit, and performs a corrective operation.

X-ray camera

An X-ray imaging apparatus of the present invention is configured so that image data outputting means receives X-rays and outputs image data containing plural pixels, and, when a pixel value of a designated pixel in the image data is larger than a maximum pixel value of pixels surrounding the designated pixel by a predetermined value or more, abnormal data eliminating means judges the designated value as an abnormal data and corrects the abnormal data, thereby an optimum image quality adjustment is automatically conducted in accordance with an exposure object.

An automatic offset adjusting apparatus for current detectors in a digital controller for a servo motor is constructed so that, when errors occur in offset correction values due to a temperature change and the like while the servo motor is in operation, an electrical angle detecting unit detects a ripple of the torque of the servo motor, on the basis of a ripple of a torque command value, and detects a first electrical angle, where the torque command value becomes maximum, and a second electrical angle, where the torque command value becomes minimum, based on an electrical angle signal of the servo motor, a judgement unit judges whether or not offset correction errors have occurred on the basis of a difference between the first and second electrical angles, and, if the judgement unit judges that the offset correction errors have occurred, a correction unit adds adjustment values for the offset correction values corresponding to the first electrical angle to the respective offset correction values to update the offset correction values, whereby the correction of the offset correction values is automatically carried out even while the servo motor is in operation, thereby preventing generation of the ripple of the torque of the servo motor.
