X-ray technology is the only non-destructive test method that visualizes subsurface defects in opaque products, assemblies or components. It has become a requisite tool for many sectors, including manufacturing, automotive, aerospace and medical imaging.
How It Works
A microfocus X ray source can manage spot sizes that are smaller than typical alternatives while sustaining the required output power. They also can produce film-comparable resolution with such digital detection developments CMOS sensors, amorphous silicon sensors and CCDs. Increased integration of functionality between the x-ray source and the detector has also increased overall performance and throughput.
Features
A “Micro-Block” unit offers a compact design and a small focal spot with a short focus-to-object ratio for maximized magnification and defined 2D and 3D imagery. An integrated microfocus X ray source, operated on 24 VDC power, can incorporate a high-voltage power supply with a controller, an end-window tube and a graphical interface base on the Windows system.
Applications
Applications for a microfocus X ray source include:
- PCB Inspection
- Electronic Component Inspection
- Micro-CT Imaging for Industrial and Life-Science Applications
- Semiconductor Inspection
