High-energy X-ray system

04/11/2021

North Star Imaging has introduced a new range of high-energy X-ray systems that are available in 3 million, 6 million and 9 million electron volts.

The MeVX product line answers the need for higher-energy X-ray inspection to deeply penetrate dense parts that cannot be scanned using standard lower-energy X-ray equipment.

Use of a 3, 6 or 9 MeVX is a huge time-saving solution, especially for aerospace, defence, automotive and other emerging technologies where speed and superior high-resolution images are required for mission-critical parts.

Noise, scatter and beam-hardening artefacts negatively impact the image fidelity of a part. With the help of a linear accelerator (linac), the MeVX units not only improve scanning penetration but also image quality.

Common applications that are readily scanned include large and complex assemblies, rocket engines and tanks, nickel-based alloys, combustion chambers, engine blocks, turbine blades and more.
