See beneath the surface with X-ray Computed Tomography
X-ray Computed Tomography (micro CT) is the only non-destructive testing method that is able to
Visualize interior features within solid objects, and for obtaining digital information on their 3-D geometries and properties.
When X-rays are projected through and around a sample, they form a ‘shadow’ image, or X-ray image, of the object on a digital detector. Our expert testing team will for ensure that the object fits inside the field of view and that it does not move during the CT scan. This is essentially the same as a doctor’s office X-ray and, for industrial parts, is known as digital radiography. This method is very useful to check for unexpected features: cracks, pores or inclusions.
Our X-Ray computed tomography services
Porosity Analysis | Detect & Locate
X-Ray Computed Tomography features high volumetric density analysis, capable of detecting pores of various shape and sizes.
The evaluation is carried out in 3D, precisely locating the position of every single pores. This technique can be used for:
- Product quality validation
- Casting process optimization
- First Article Inspection
Dimensional Measurement | Fast & Accurate
Acquisition of a 3D volumetric data enables simplification of complex measurements.
External and internal measurements, GD&T and complex shapes and geometries can be easily analyzed, specially curated for:
- First Article Inspection
- Locate and validate critical features
- Pinpoint critical defects
Reverse Engineering | CAD Support
X-Ray Computed Tomography features advanced algorithm which enables existing product to be reconstructed in the form of a 3D volumetric data.
The evaluated data can be exported to .STL format,
compatible with most of the CAD software for:
- Design optimization
- Mold design correction
- Dimensional measurement
- 3D Printing
Nominal-Actual Comparison | Color Coded
High density data from X-Ray Computed Tomography allows determination of dimensional deviation of the actual product from its nominal (CAD) design.
Color coded evaluation simplifies the process of deviation analysis especially on complex geometries and freeform surfaces. This technique can be used for:
- Overall product dimensional deviation
- Production parameter/process optimization
- First Article Inspection
