phoenix v|tome|x L – versatile and exible CT system

The phoenix v|tome|x L 240/300 and L 450 are versatile high resolution microfocus systems for
3D and 2D Computed Tomography and 2D non-destructive X-ray inspection. With their granite­based 8-axes manipulation they are handling even large samples with highest precision. Both
systems are the optimal solution for void and flaw detection and 3D metrology (e.g. first article
inspection) of castings. Furthermore, phoenix|x-rays high resolution X-ray technology with many
extras like an optionally second X-ray tube allows to adapt the v|tome|x L to any kind of indus­trial and scientific CT application. A variety of effective software tools minimises physical effects
like ring-artefacts or beam-hardenings for highest CT quality.

phoenix v|tome|x L – very high precision even for large samples

With its granite-based 8-axis manipulation unit, the phoenix v|tome|x L 450 handles even large
samples (up to 100 kg (220 lbs) in weight, up to 1300 mm in diameter and up to 2000 mm in height)
with highest precision. A supplemental detector axis enlarges the detector width up to 1200 mm.
Additional to its 300 kV / 500 W microfocus X-ray tube, the v|tome|x L 450 may come optionally
equipped with an extra, 450 kV closed minifocus tube for high absorbing samples. All v|tome|x
systems can also be used for 2D inspection with fast and easy switching between 2D and 3D
mode. The wide range of available configurations allows to adapt the v|tome|x L to almost any
kind of application in science, production control and 3D metrology.

Advanced CT software

All v|tome|x CT systems come standard with phoenix|x-rays proprietary CT acquisition and reconstruction software
package datos|x for fast and accurate CT. Due to GPU based reconstruction techniques, CT results are available af­ter just a few minutes. For ease of use and to optimise the quality of high resolution CT data, phoenix|x-ray offers a
variety of effective software tools, e.g. for automatic geometry calibration, for <360° ROI-CT with maximized magni­fication, for ring artefact reduction, beam hardening correction, optimization of scans with drift effects as well as for
advanced extraction of surface points for 3D metrology applications. The high precision click & measure|CT funci­tionality offers the possiblity for fully automated CT data acquisition, reconstruction and 3D volume evaluation.

Wall-thickness measurement

Extensive flexibility
The v|tome|x L 300 comes with a new unipolar 300 kV / 500 W microfocus source. Due to this unique technique the
system can be used for high magnification applications as well as scans of strongly absorbing samples. Major com­ponents of the system, like the X-ray tube and the temperature stabilized detector are proprietary technology of GE
For highest resolution scans, the v|tome|x L 300 can be outfitted with an additional open 180 kV high power nano­focus tube. There are many flat panel and line detector options for v|tome|x L systems. In multiline detector config­uration, the reduction of scattered radiation for precise 2D scans for metrology application can be reached without
installation of an additional expensive line detector.

Highest accuracy for 3D metrology

Especially if complex parts with hidden or difficult accessible surfaces have to be measured, CT offers big advan­tages comparing with conventional tactile or optical coordinate measuring machines (CMMs): high density of meas­urement points and fast capturing of the complete sample’s geometry. v|tome|x L systems include all essential fea­tures for CT with highest accuracy: Minimised focal spot and voxel size, granite based setup in an air-conditioned
walk in cabinet for high mechanical and thermal stability, high power X-ray tube to enable beam filtering as well as
advanced software for optimised CT reconstruction quality and geometrically correct surface extraction.
