The German BAM is revolutionizing the quality assurance in additive manufacturing (AM) within the initiative QI-Digital. From metal powder to non-destructive testing with X-ray technology, every step of the production chain is digitally mapped, to manufacture components with consistent quality. The MesoFocus 450 X-ray tube plays a crucial role in helping to achieve this goal. Learn more about BAM's project and the future of quality assurance in additive manufacturing.

Hear directly from Michael Hubler, Product Manager X-ray Tubes. In a world where speed is a crucial part of the production equation, the new Ultra Performance tube pushes the limits of what is possible.

In a world where speed is a crucial part of the pro-duction equation, the new Ultra Performance tube pushes the limits of what is possible. Thanks to its increased power load it allows for shorter exposure times to deliver higher throughput and high uptime while still maintaining excellent image quality.

This focus topic explores the challenges and limitations of conventional X-ray tube technologies in providing cost-efficient quality control for battery inspection, for complex casts in the automotive industry, or for large and additively manufactured parts in aerospace.

"We choose the XMB system at sites with areas that are hard to reach and limited maneuvering room".

“When researching artworks, we often need to determine; how, when, and by whom they are made. X-ray examination is unique in the way that it enables us to look inside, behind, and as it were - back in time,” explain Jakob and Troels from the gallery.

We invite all of our peers in the NDT industry to join us in proudly identifying as being NDT TOUGH.

The ION integrated X-ray series is tailor-made for X-ray scanning applications and ideal for industries such as food processing, sorting, thickness gauging, and security in particular.

Lithium-ion batteries are an integral part of our daily lives. You may not see one very often, but they are used in a variety of products, such as electric cars, cellphones and power tools. As the need for more lithium-ion batteries is increasing rapidly, giant production facilities (a.k.a Gigafactories) are being built around the globe to keep up with this demand. X-ray inspection is a crucial step in the production line of lithium-ion batteries, as faulty batteries can become very dangerous. By conducting a thorough inspection, one can ensure that the batteries will be safe to use, which is why X-ray inspection systems are such an important tool in the battery industry.

The best innovation of the canton of Fribourg - that's MesoFocus! Not only the customers are enthusiastic about the new X-ray technology, but also the Canton of Fribourg recognizes MesoFocus as an innovation with big potential creating true value in X-Ray inspection.

Listen in as Rebecca Rudolph discusses NDTMA as well as the innovations at Comet X-ray with host Marybeth Miceli of We-NDT.

Every two years, the Canton of Fribourg awards the Innovation Prize to companies and start-ups to reward their innovative inventions and to make them known in the canton and beyond. This year, Comet X-ray is among the top three companies with its new MesoFocus technology!

It delivers performance and enables high throughput without sacrificing spatial resolution or field of view - and power, performance, speed, Six Sigma production, and predictive maintenance are just some of the benefits you can experience. Read about the MesoFocus series in "MesoFocus applications" below - or on the website product pages.

This edition introduces the Facts & Features series, giving you insights into the Comet X-ray product series. The first edition is about FXE modules presented by Dirk Schneider, Product Manager for open and sealed MicroFocus products at Comet X-ray. Dirk talks about how the features of the FXE benefit the customers of the open microfocus modules.

At Comet X-ray, we understand partnering and service as crucial elements of our mutual business success. Our channel partners and integrators are vitally important to us, and we consider it an honor and privilege to be immersed in your project as part of your team, developing the best solution for the end user together.

Your project is unique, but our goal is always the same: To create solutions that generate real value for every customer.

I am excited to announce that I have joined Comet, an innovative technology company in the x-ray market, as their Head of Sales, Americas.

Comet X-ray is known for Quality, Responsiveness, and Delivery. Even during these uncertain times with supply chain issues plaguing so many manufacturers, Comet X-ray continues to deliver quality products on time for your systems. 

In the past, to achieve the resolution and penetration needed to maintain high-quality standards in critical components, a dual-tube setup, and inspection process were required - this setup led to increased system costs and inspection times.
