Quality Control of Castings by Microtomography

The quality standards when processing aluminum castings are very high. Especially in the automotive and aviation industries, these parts have to be extremely resilient; incorrect processing would jeopardize safety and longevity. The use of X-ray computed tomography has proven successful in recent years for quality control in industry.

Revolutionary Resolution

Bruker microCT presented the new SkyScan 1276 in-vivo micro-CT at WMIC 2016. The device sets standards in terms of spatial resolution and scanning speed. fastest scan in 3.9 seconds smallest voxel size 2.8 µm (isotropic) spiral scan mode without ring artifacts The instrument can be operated via touchscreen and offers an on-screen dosimeter.
