SKYSCAN 1174: COMPACT X-RAY MICROTOMOGRAPHY

• Description

At a fraction of the price of competitive systems, with a small footprint, this system provides fast, high resolution 3D imaging.

50kV maintenance-free X-ray source
Cooled 1.3 megapixel x-ray camera
Down to 6µm 3D spatial resolution
Scanning during compression, tension, cooling, heating
2D/ 3D image analysis and realistic visualization

This scanner uses an x-ray source with adjustable voltage and a range of filters for versatile adaptation to different object densities. A sensitive 1.3 megapixel x-ray camera allows scanning of your whole sample volume in several minutes. Variable magnification (6-30 µm pixel size) is combined with object positioning for easy selection of the object part to be scanned.

The scanner can run from any desktop or portable computer, requiring just one USB (or serial) port and a FireWire (IEEE1394) input. The full range of SkyScan software is supplied, including fast volumetric reconstruction, software for 2D/ 3D quantitative analysis and for realistic 3D visualization.
