Industrial CT Scanning

CactuX offers industrial CT scanning services for reliable internal inspection. Industrial CT scanning provides non-destructive 3D X-ray inspection for defect detection, metrology, and failure analysis. From high-resolution nano-CT scanning to dedicated micro-CT scanning service workflows, we help manufacturers validate assemblies, improve quality, and accelerate product development.

X-ray technologies are the best option for advanced, non-destructive imaging in industrial applications. Digital radiography and industrial CT scanning provide precise, high-resolution insights into internal structures. Without damaging or altering your sample, we are able to examine intricate components and details that may not be visible through traditional methods.

We’re here to provide accurate, high-quality imaging solutions tailored to your needs.

Industrial CT captures a series of X-ray images from different angles while the sample rotates around its axis. Subsequently using advanced reconstruction algorithms, it is possible to compute detailed cross-sectional slices. These slices together create a 3D digital volume – a digital twin of the measured object.

Metrological validation

Internal and external inspection of parts for defect detection and measure dimensional deviations:

      • High-precision measurements – Analysis of dimensions, porosity, and defects with micrometer accuracy. Analysis according to industrial standards.
      • Quality control – Validation of parts against to 2D drawings or CAD models to to detect deviations and identify manufacturing issues.

Reverse engineering

Precise digital reconstruction of complex parts without disassembly:

      • Complete 3D digitization – Capturing external and internal geometries to create highly detailed digital 3D models without damaging the original part.
      • Reconstruction of lost documentation – New technical drawings and CAD files generation for legacy or unavailable parts.

Component analysis

Complete view of a component’s internal structure, material distribution, and assembly quality:

      • Assembly verification – Verification of solder joints, welds, bonds, and internal connections integrity without disassembly.
      • Dynamic X-ray testing – Analysis of components under mechanical load, temperature variations, or operational conditions in real time.

Material inspection

Deep understanding of a material’s internal composition:

      • Fiber orientation & density variations – Analysis of material distribution, detection of inconsistencies, and optimization of production quality.
      • Dynamic & in-situ CT – Observation of material behaviour under stress, temperature changes, or mechanical load in real time.
