SKYSCAN 2214 - nm X-ray microscope

MULTISCALE X-ray microscope SKYSCAN 2214 CMOS in one instrument covers most widely object size and spatial resolution, to oil and gas exploration in geological materials, composite materials, lithium battery, fuel cell, electronic components, and in vitro preclinical applications (such as lung imaging or tumor vascularization) for advanced 3 d imaging and precise modeling.

The instrument can be greater than 300 mm in diameter of the object's internal microstructure scanning and three-dimensional reconstruction, of the small sample could also be sub-micron resolution.

The system is equipped with a < 0.5 micron "open" transmission X-ray source and the size of a diamond window.It can accommodate four X-ray detector, most have the greatest flexibility.Automatic variable acquisition geometry and phase contrast enhancement can be implemented in a relatively short scan time best quality.

SKYSCAN 2214 got the 3 d. A supplement to the SUITE.This comprehensive software suite covers the GPU acceleration reconstruction, morphological analysis and 2 d / 3 d surface and volume rendering visualization.

The light source

SKYSCAN 2214 using the latest generation of open X light source.The light source can be achieved is better than the actual spatial resolution of 500 nm, 160 keV X-ray energy, and power of up to 16 W.Because have very simple registration in advance of the filament replacement program, the light source is hardly needs to be maintained.

SKYSCAN 2214 with diamond Windows open (pump) nano focus X-ray sources.It can produce peak energy range from 20 kV to 160 keV X beam, and there are two types of the cathode.Tungsten (W) cathode applies to a maximum of 160 kV complete acceleration voltage range, minimum spot diameter of 800 nm.Six boride lanthanum (LaB6) cathode applies from the acceleration of 20 kV to 100 kV voltage of X-ray beam spot size can be smaller than 500 nm, to ensure the highest resolution in imaging and 3 d reconstruction.JIMA resolution test card shows that it can easily parse out the structure of 500 nm.In order to ensure that the position of the focal spot size and source can remain stable for a long time, X light also can equipped with water cooling system, the system contains a loop device, can accurately control the temperature of the cooling liquid in order to maintain the stability of the temperature.

The detector

SKYSCAN 2214 can be equipped with four X-ray camera, in order to obtain maximum flexibility: three with different resolution and field balancing of CMOS camera, and a flat panel detector in order to cover the XL view.Just click of a mouse, you can choose all the cameras.

Use small pixels of large size CMOS detector three-dimensional imaging of high resolution can be extended to large objects.Built-in detector flexibility makes it can be adjusted according to the size of the object and the density field and spatial resolution.From the reconstruction of the volume of interest to advanced, can not affect image quality under the condition of high resolution scanning was carried out on the selected part of the large object.

In addition, by using the offset of the camera position and the vertical objects move, can increase the horizontal and vertical field of view.3 d. SUITE software automatically different image stitching together, and the strength of the migration and the possible differences to compensate.

With the development of the research topic and analysis of demand, the camera can be used in the system during the period of any point in time to add.

In situ test rig

With highly accurate sample 2214 SKYSCAN, support up to 300 mm diameter and weight of up to 20 kg object.Air suspension rotation motor can precisely at very high accuracy rotating object position, integration of precision positioning platform can guarantee the sample completely aligned.

SKYSCAN 2214 has a very big sample room and easy to use, convenient scanning large objects and install an optional test rig.It has enough space to accommodate the peripheral equipment.

Brooke's material test bench can be maximum compression test of 4400 N and 440 N tensile test.All test bench can be contacted automatically by the system of the turntable, without any external cables.Through the use of software provided, can set the scheduled scan test.

Brooke's heating and cooling units can reach the highest + 80 DHS C or below the lowest environment temperature low temperature of 30 DHS C.And other test bench, heating and cooling units do not need any extra connection, the system can automatically identify the different test rig.Through the use of heating and cooling, the test samples under the condition of the environment, to assess the micro structure of the temperature of the sample.

SKYSCAN and DEBEN test-bed is fully compatible with 2214.With the aid of own adapter, DEBEN test-bed can easily be installed to the SKYSCAN 2214 rotary table.

The key application

SKYSCAN 2214 application

Add material manufacture

Increase material manufacture is usually referred to as "3 d printing", can be used to produce parts with complex internal and external structure.And need special mold or tool of the traditional technology, increase material manufacturing can used for economical production of single product prototype, and can produce large quantities of parts.After completion of production, to ensure that produce parts performance in line with expectations, to verify that the external and internal structure.XRM can accomplish this in the form of nondestructive testing, to ensure that produce parts meet or beyond the prescribed performance.

  • Check the internal space formed by the residual powder
  • Verify the internal and external dimensions
  • As compared with CAD model directly
  • Analysis consists of a single material and a variety of material components

Fiber and composite materials

By putting the materials synthesis of composite materials, components can be obtained with higher strength, at the same time significantly reducing weight.To further optimize the component performance, you must ensure that the direction of the composition can be optimized.Fiber is one of the most commonly used components, in reinforced concrete, glass fiber in electronic components, materials and aviation carbon nanotubes.XRM can be used for detecting fiber and composite material, and the need for crosscutting, to ensure that the sample status will not be affected in the process of preparation of samples.

  • The direction of the embedded objects
  • Layer thickness, fiber size and spacing of quantitative analysis
  • Using in situ sample, test temperature and physical properties

geological

Study of geological samples - as the core sample in deep underground and above ground rock, to explore the formation process of the world in which we provide a wealth of information.Analysis usually need to destroy the original sample, eliminate the internal structure of the important origins.XRM without slice analysis under the condition of the sample, and thus to more quickly get the results, also make the samples in the future can continue to for analysis.

  • According to the density of internal structure for 3 d visualization of the sample
  • Pore network visualization
  • Digital section allows you to use standard geological analysis method
