Key Solution Characteristics
-
Industry-leading detector performance
-
The Phoenix V|tome|x M comes standard with our exclusive 4 MP Dynamic 41|200 next-generation photodiode design industrial X-ray detector. It provides 10x increased sensitivity relative to the state of the art 200µm pixel-size DXR detectors producing a 2-3x cycle time increase without image quality impact, making inspections and measurements more efficient and productive.
As a premium option, the 100µm / 16 MP Dynamic 41|100 detector provides 2x the resolution increase without impacting cycle times. Detection of 2x smaller defects without an increase of geometric magnification allows for the imaging of large objects at higher resolutions.Dynamic 41 digital detector technology means you get up to 2-3x faster CT scans or doubled resolution.
-
Faster scans with less artifacts
-
Advanced Scatter|correct technology automatically removes scatter artifacts for artifact-free precision CT results on the quality level of fan-beam CT scanned several hundred times faster with advanced cone-beam CT.
-
Unprecedented scan speed
-
Our proprietary High-flux|target allows for higher power on a smaller focal spot, so you can cut scan time in half.
-
Automated CT process
-
Boost your CT scanning performance with a fully automated, robot-based workflow and 3D analysis in real-time.
-
Enhanced reliability with real results
-
Backed by our proprietary technology and durable hardware, you can maintain safe and reliable operations while remaining in compliance.
-
Optimized inspection performance
-
By bringing your CT inspection right onto the factory floor or into the lab, you can unite manufacturing with quality control for greater reliability, speed, and efficiency.
-
Maximum flexibility
-
Unique Dual|tube configurations enhance the flexibility. Depending on the inspection task, fast and easy change between the microfocus and nanofocus X-ray tube is possible just by a push of a button.
-
Precision metrology
-
With Ruby|plate and True|position technology, our 3D metrology has an accuracy of (3.8 + L/100 mm) µm, referring to VDI 2630 guidelines. For all other positions besides the VDI positions, a remarkable accuracy of (5.5+ L/50 mm) µm can be reached.
-
AI-based automated defect recognition (ADR)
-
Proprietary machine learning (ML) based algorithms deliver exceptional Automated Defect Recognition (ADR) across various flaws for e.g. battery anode overhang analysis or typical casting defects. Our AI and data science based ADR library yields greater accuracy and enhanced ease of use compared to conventional ADR approaches, eliminating the need for expert parameterization skills.
Waygate Technologies offers X|approver, the next level and premium ADR platform consisting of the full and intuitive workflow management as well as a comprehensive ADR library running in the background of your production delivering automatic decision making. On top of it reporting functions are provided to see potential negative trends in production at a glance. Any authorized operator can parametrize scanned samples (e.g. for highly accurate overhang issue detection), and the algorithms get more accurate over time.

Flash! optimized 2D failure detection
-
Especially when being equipped with its optional tilt axis, the Phoenix V|tome|x M can also be used as a flexible 2D X-ray inspection system to detect failures even without performing a CT scan. The system includes Waygate Technologies X|act inspection software with industry leading Flash!™ intelligent image processing technology. Users benefit from two versions:
- Flash! (for general NDT use such as casting inspection)
- Flash! Electronics (optimized for Electronics inspection)

Redefining Automation for Industrial Volumetric Computed Tomography (VCT) Applications
Industrial environments consist of multiple processes that must interact with humans and automation. Volumetric Computed Tomography (VCT) is a crucial component to the overall success of many of the industrial inspection routines. Along with Mobile Machine Tending (MMT) and collaborative robots, this allows for a much more productive environment to meet customer demand. A world-class example of pushing the limits of lean manufacturing.
