Waygate Technologies Mesofocus CT at iWP
Background
iWP in Neuss, Germany, specializes in providing mobile and stationary 2D and 3D X-ray inspection services. Their portfolio features maintenance and repair services.
Technological investments and capabilities
iWP utilizes various X-ray computed tomography systems from Waygate Technologies, including Phoenix V|tome|x M240, V|tome|x L450, and the latest innovation, the compact Phoenix V|tome|x C450 recently equipped with a Mesofocus X-ray tube for high power inspection at small focal spot sizes, enabling higher inspection output at better image quality.
Mesofocus tubes bridge the gap between open high-resolution Microfocus X-ray tubes and robust sealed Minifocus tubes with high penetration power, merging the benefits of both technologies. They enhance the detection of small defects while maintaining high inspection throughput, making them ideal for industrial CT applications such as aerospace and additive manufacturing, as well as battery and automotive casting inspection. By combining precision with robustness, Mesofocus tubes offer a versatile solution for advanced industrial inspection needs.
