Nikon's adaptive microfocus CT systems, distributed by NM3D Ibérica, provide high-resolution inspection of components ranging from small plastic connectors to aluminum castings. These systems are ideal for research and development activities, failure analysis and quality control in a production environment.

 Adaptable solutions for demanding inspection applications

The XT H line combines the flexibility needed in the laboratory with advanced features such as 225 kV Rotating.Target 2.0, Half.Turn CT acquisition mode and Auto.Filament Control. These technologies contribute to shorter cycle times and higher system availability, especially in serial inspection contexts on the shop floor.

Product Highlights

Operational flexibility - Thanks to the possibility to choose between different sources, targets, CT scanning strategies and options such as motorized adjustment of the distance between the source and the detector, XT H systems are extremely versatile, effectively responding to a wide range of inspection requirements.

X.Tend Helical CT - Allows scanning of tall objects in a single continuous acquisition, eliminating artifacts typical of cone beam and stitching of multiple scans. This approach also offers the advantage of performing inspections at higher magnifications, resulting in significantly higher resolutions.

225 kV Rotating.Target 2.0 - This unique technology enables continuous operation at up to 450 W, with up to three times the resolution for the same power — or three times faster acquisition times for equivalent resolution.

Main Features

Feature

Description

Dual.Material CT for production

Innovative reconstruction technique for automatic inspection of dual-material samples, with significant reduction of density artifacts. 

OPC UA Production Integration

Allows direct connection to MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems), facilitating integration into the production environment.

Auto.Filament Control

Intelligent X-ray source control system that doubles filament life without compromising image resolution. 

Half.Turn CT

Optimized reconstruction algorithms, developed in-house, that allow to reduce the acquisition time by half without losing quality. 

X.Tend Helical CT

Continuous scanning of tall objects with elimination of stitching artifacts and increased resolution by moving the sample closer to the source. 

Offset.CT

It allows scanning components with dimensions larger than the detector, maintaining high resolution and proximity to the X-ray source. 

Traceable measurement accuracy

The MCT225 system meets the requirements of the VDI/VDE 2630 standard, with MPE verification, ensuring the required metrological accuracy. 

Industry-leading image quality

Flat panel detectors with high resolution (small pixel size) and microfocus sources with reduced focal spot for excellent images.
