It has a customisable 3000 x 3000 pixels Flat Panel (FP) detector (active area 417 x 417 mm) allowing the operator to optimise the system\u2019s performance to best suit the sample and imaging requirements. The system it is also equipped with a range of advanced acquisition modes which allow horizontal and vertical field of view expansion, including helical acquisition, panel offsetting, and vertically overlapping scans. It also features scatter compensation techniques for denser objects and linear translation laminography for high aspect ratio samples.<\/p>\n<p>The d5 can be used to image specimens with dimensions from a few millimetres in cross-section up to objects with ~ 2 \u20133 m linear dimensions with a scannable field-of-view in excess of 1 m (\u00d8) x 1.5 m (H). The heavy-duty rotation stage can support specimens up to 200 kg. A labyrinth at the rear of the system allows routing of cables and pipes that can control and feed in situ rigs for time-resolved and\/or environment controlled \u00b5-CT experiments.<\/p>\n<h5>In summary:<\/h5>\n<p>\u2023 300 kVp &amp; 450 kVp X-Ray sources<br \/>\n\u2023 resolutions:<br \/>\n\u2023\u00a0\u2023 300\u202fkVp source: ~ 3\u202f\u00b5m up to 10\u202fW \/ 20\u202f\u00b5m up to 80W<br \/>\n\u2023 \u2023 450\u202fkVp source: ~ 0.4\u202fmm up to 700\u202fW \/ 1 mm up to 1500\u202fW<br \/>\n\u2023 3000 x 3000 FP detector\u202f(active area 417 x 417mm)<br \/>\n\u2023 scanning modes:<br \/>\n\u2023 \u2023 horizontal &amp; vertical field-of-view expansion and cropping<br \/>\n\u2023 \u2023 helical scanning<br \/>\n\u2023 \u2023 linear translation laminograpgy<br \/>\n\u2023 scattering compensation<br \/>\n\u2023 imaging volume\u202fin excess of 1x1x1.5 m<br \/>\n\u2023 200 kg rating\u202fsample stage<br \/>\n\u2023 temperature controlled<br \/>\n\u2023 user labyrinth and large 5\u00a0x\u00a03.5\u00a0x\u00a03.5\u00a0m enclosure for large specimens and\/or complex in situ testing<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3649,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"ty_pe":[41],"class_list":["post-4115","equipments","type-equipments","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","ty_pe-material-sustainability"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mobileandwebsitedevelopment.com\/seam.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/equipments\/4115","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mobileandwebsitedevelopment.com\/seam.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/equipments"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mobileandwebsitedevelopment.com\/seam.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/equipments"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mobileandwebsitedevelopment.com\/seam.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3649"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mobileandwebsitedevelopment.com\/seam.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4115"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"ty_pe","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mobileandwebsitedevelopment.com\/seam.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ty_pe?post=4115"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
