Why Choose the NovaScan NX?
✓ Large-Area Coverage: 17×17-inch IGZO TFT panel covers large workpieces in a single exposure, reducing scan time and improving throughput.
✓ Static & Dynamic Imaging: Supports both high-resolution radiography (static) and real-time fluoroscopy (dynamic) for versatile inspection workflows.
✓ Up to 30 fps Real-Time: High-speed imaging at 30 fps (1536×1536) enables moving-object inspection on production conveyors.
✓ 16-Bit Dynamic Range: 65,536 greyscale levels for detecting the finest cracks, porosity, and density variations in materials.
✓ Wide Energy Compatibility: Operates from 40 to 150 kVp, suitable for plastics, composites, aluminium, steel, and dense alloys.
✓ Compact & Universal Fit: ISO 4090 cassette form factor (460×460×15 mm) at just 3.4–3.5 kg integrates into any standard X-ray cabinet or automated line.
✓ AED Function: Automatic Exposure Detection ensures optimal image quality without manual parameter adjustment.
✓ Dual Scintillator Options: GD₂O₂S:Tb (NX-4300G) for cost-effective inspection, or CsI:Tl (NX-4300C) for maximum sensitivity.
