CT scan for material analysis

Applications

Material analysis.

Fibres, pores and particles.

Inspection tasks

Structure, measured in three dimensions.

Pores, fibres, phases and particles determine how a material behaves. High-resolution CT quantifies them in the volume and leaves the specimen intact for the next test.

Porosity and phases

Pore size distribution and phase fractions are calculated from the volume, not estimated from a section.

Composites and ceramics

Fibre structure, delamination and micro-cracks are shown in composite and ceramic materials.

Rock, concrete and powders

Geotechnical specimens, concrete and particle agglomerates are analysed without preparation.

Scan examples
