Computed tomography utilizes a motorized X-ray source that rotates around a gantry to capture a series of tomographic images that can be layered to generate an extremely accurate 3D image. Laboratory computed tomography instruments are used extensively for NDT testing and are capable of accurately imaging the entirety of a material. When comparing laboratory CT devices, scan times can be of paramount importance for keeping up with your throughput. Also, consider the detector of the CT device. Flat panel detectors tend to offer increased longevity and size, whereas CMOS detectors can offer increased scanning speed with improved resolution. Laboratory computed tomography devices are offered in several sizes ranging from benchtop to floor-standing models, the right choice will vary depending on laboratory space as well as the size of the object to be imaged.

The parallel beam geometry combined with an ultra-bright 1200 W rotating anode X-ray source enhances the contrast of low-density materials, which are normally difficult to image using high-energy X-ray sourcesRigaku nano3DX is a true submicron resolution microCT scanner (micro computed tomography). The parallel beam geometry combined with an ultra-bright 1200 W rotating anode X-ray source enhances the contrast of low-density materials, which are normally difficult to image using high-energy X-ray sources.
This parallel beam geometry in combination with an optical lens produces high-resolution 3D images. Furthermore, it avoids blurring which is commonly encountered using X-ray beam divergent imaging techniques.
The X-ray anode can be selected from Cr (5.4 keV), Cu (8 keV), or Mo (17 keV). These anode materials generate low-energy and pseudo-monochromatic radiation to maximize the X-ray CT image contrast. The anode material can be selected with the click of a button depending on the sample material and size. With the highest magnification lens, the nano3DX can achieve 325 nm voxel resolution and true submicron (700 nm) spatial resolution, with no sample preparation.
Key features - Parallel beam geometry for true submicron resolution
- Selectable pseudo-monochromatic X-ray radiations
- Ultra-bright 1200 W X-ray source and sCMOS for shorter scan time – as short as 30sec
