XU8800 U-Shaped X-Ray Line Scan Cameras

Product information "XU8800 U-Shaped X-Ray Line Scan Cameras"

U-Shaped CMOS Photodiode Detector Array; Pixel Pitch 0.4, 0.8 mm; X-Ray Energy 40-160 kV; Length 1,491-4,626 mm; Line Period ≥0.44-≥1.8 ms; Scan Velocity ≤13-≤109 m/min

The XU8800 Series “U” shaped Line-scan Camera utilizes the same detector chip technology as the XI8800 Falcon series and provides an ideal solution for tire inspection applications. At the heart of a XU8800 camera are X-Scan Imaging’s CMOS silicon imaging detector array chips providing wide dynamic range and solid-state reliability. The Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) vision interface option provides long cable lengths for convenience.

Each XU8800 U-shaped camera system includes a unique camera body, software development kit, power adapter and cabling. A recommended frame-grabber which can be installed in the computer is offered as an option.

In a typical tire inspection application, the treads and sidewalls of a rotating tire intersect the x-rays radiating from the x-ray source and directed to the camera body. A wide selection of scintillation materials is available for converting x-ray radiation into visible light for detection by the imaging array, which optimizes both sensitivity and image resolution.
