Yxlon UX50 SMT X-ray Inspection Machine

With its large inspection envelope, multiple field-of-view extensions, and a powerful 450 kV X-ray tube, the UX50 takes the inspection of complex, dense parts to the next level.

UX50 highlights

Wide application range: 450 kV and large inspection envelope

Choice of line and/or flat-panel detectors for maximum flexibility

CT techniques for extended field of view and image processing

Simple creation of inspection sequences with Geminy

Automated detector calibration and image sharpness measurements

For applications e.g., in automotive, metal casting, and additive manufacturing

Maximum flexibility for quality assurance testing

Whether its massive motor blocks, larger steel parts, or complex e-mobility components – the Comet Yxlon UX50 CT system scans the most challenging items in record time. Fast switching between line and flat-panel detectors, intuitive operation with the user interface Geminy, and a comprehensive set of image processing tools make the UX50 ideal for an unlimited range of X-ray and CT applications in the industrial environment.

One system, two detectors: line detector and/or flat-panel detector

The UX50 offers a variety of detector configurations to meet the individual inspection needs of manufacturers. While CTScan 3, a line detector array (LDA) designed and produced by Comet Yxlon, is highly efficient at high energies, the Y.Panel 4343N offers more versatility. The configuration with both detectors provides the best solution for each task, allowing for quick and easy switching between the image chains in one sequence.

Easy upgrades for a future-proof investment

Simply choose the image chain that meets your current tasks and budget. If your requirements change, single detector configurations can be upgraded on site. In addition, the Geminy user interface will provide regular updates including new features.
