Nikon’s versatile microfocus X-ray Computed Tomography (XCT) system for high-resolution inspection of components, ranging from small plastic connectors up to aluminium castings, for R&D, failure analysis and production quality control. Our Nikon XCT systems is best suited for larger samples, from a few mm diameter to approximately 20 cm diameter (and less than 30cm in length). With itshigh-power 225 kV and 320 kV x-ray sources, it can achieve transmission of sample up to approximately 30 mm steel. Typical scan times using vary from 10 to 120 minutes. The resolution varies from 3 to 104 µm for specimen areas with a diameter of < 10 mm and up to 300 mm diameters respectively. Specimens larger than 300 mm can be analysed by taking linked scans that can then be pieced back together during the reconstruction stage, however this capability is limited by the cabinet size.
