X-RAY SCAN

INDUSTRIAL COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY

Carùs’ R&D department continues to tirelessly optimise the production process and improve the product quality. A state-of-the-art fully customised industrial tomography has recently been introduced, capable of scanning large objects in a short space of time.

Carùs innovative computerised industrial tomography service is available to our customers, allowing for increased quality with the strictest confidentiality.

WHAT IS THE CT SCAN?

The computed tomography (CT) scan is a powerful non-destructive investigation technique that allows one to see inside objects.

CT is a particular application of X-rays which, thanks to an evaluation of the absorption of these rays by the material traversed, reconstructs in three dimensions the volume and internal structure of the analysed objects .

These features make CT one of the most robust quality control tools available today.

WHAT IS DR?

The Digital Radiography (DR) is the digital mode of acquisition of the single radiographic image. It is the modern version of the radiographic film.

WHAT IS FLUOROSCOPY?

Fluoroscopy is a technique that allows to obtain a movie of a sequence of DR. Therefore it allows to analyse internal movements of the analysed object.

FAQ

Does the scan leave residual radiation in the part?
NO.

Does scan heats up the part?
NO.

Can multiple parts be CT scanned at the same time?
Yes, it is one of the advantages of having a large scan volume.
