Industrial X-ray and CT Systems
Our industrial X-ray scanners are designed with superior resolution and accuracy while maintaining an easy to use interface. Whether it’s high speed 3D scanning, failure analysis, or reverse engineering, our systems are built for efficiency and repeatability to ensure your components function safely and correctly each and every time. Ranging in size from compact to large vault options, you can seamlessly acquire full internal and external details of your components. From new product development to process development to quality control, X-ray technology saves time and money throughout the product life cycle. No nondestructive testing challenge is too small or too large for our attention.
Automated X-ray and CT Systems
RobotiX Part Loaders
RobotiX part loaders allow for automatic part loading and unloading for reduced cycle times and increased productivity. Our RobotiX solutions, when combined with our Assisted Defect Recognition software, can significantly automate the X-ray inspection process. This is more important than ever in a tight job market where human capital is at a premium. Set-up and operation of our RobotiX loaders are effortless through a simple interface that allows the operator to easily create new robotic motion programs. RobotiX motion programs are created through NSI’s efX-DR acquisition software. This feature allows the user to program the robot and configure the image acquisition parameters all through a single software interface. This means your operators don’t have to learn another software program, which saves your company valuable time and money.
RobotiX Part Manipulators
RobotiX part manipulators allow you to scan more parts quicker for reduced cycle times and increased productivity. Scanning parts with complex geometries can require you to get scans from different angles. If done manually, someone is required to reposition parts and possibly change out fixtures. Time is wasted as each time the X-ray tube shuts off and the door has to open and close. Our RobotiX part manipulators can eliminate wasted time by repositioning parts as needed for each scan.
High Energy CT Systems
CT Scanning Services
See beyond the surface of your parts in 3D to evaluate like no other technology can. See inside your products without destroying them. Our 3D Computed Tomography (CT) scanning services use the most advanced X-ray inspection technology to give you the clearest picture of your product inside and out, virtually eliminating any evaluation errors.
Computed Tomography works by taking hundreds or thousands of 2D Digital Radiography projections around a 360 degree rotation of an object. Proprietary algorithms are then used to reconstruct the 2D projections into a 3D CT volume, which will allow you to view and slice the part at any angle. CT scanning gives you enhanced capabilities with versatility and product information that you cannot receive anywhere else. Computed Tomography X-ray inspection is a completely nondestructive and noncontact method for obtaining internal and external information on just about any object ranging from microns to feet in size!
North Star Imaging is ISO 9001:2015 certified, ITAR registered/compliant, ASTM compliant, DOD 4145.26-M Compliant, and has ASNT & NAS 410 Level III certified employees.
X-ray Scanning Services
See inside your products without destroying them. Our 2D Digital Radiography (DR) X-ray inspection services use the most advanced X-ray systems to let you see beyond the surface of your product. Digital Radiography is a 2D X-ray inspection method using a digital X-ray detector in place of X-ray film. You can make scan adjustments on the fly and apply digital image enhancements quickly and easily.
