Mobile high resolution X-ray inspection unit

The high resolution MDXi X-ray vision and inspection system, which can be wheeled around a factory, can produce, record and display images in 3D as well as conventional 2D. Applications range from the non-destructive testing and verification of complex assemblies through to measuring the internal dimensions of an aluminum casting. While self-contained, it can readily link into an existing factory system and works in both batch mode or as part of a robotic assembly line. The system can accurately measure linear distances and alignments and the database it produces can be linked into a QC, SPC or SCADA system. It uses patented line-scan technology and stereoscopic detection system that eliminates the need for conventional, expensive, panel X-ray detectors. Additionally, as the detection system only needs about 2 per cent of the X-ray output of competitive systems, dosage to the product is dramatically reduced.
