Resolution, Speed, Image Quality and System Versatility in micro-CT.
Despite an ever-expanding range of additional capabilities for micro-CT systems, the key application for micro-CT remains the production of 3D datasets of a sample’s structure or composition. Whether these datasets are used to quantify material characteristics such as porosity, used as input for numerical models, or are simply being used to gain a better understanding of the interior of a sample, image quality remains paramount to obtaining reliable and reproducible results.
UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCE
Accelerate Performance. Optimize System Utilization and Throughput.
Enhance throughput and minimize cost per sample with TESCAN micro-CT systems. Leveraging fast frame rate detectors and high flux x-ray sources, our systems deliver exceptional temporal resolution.

4D In-Situ Scan
TESCAN Dynamic micro-CT technology enables you to identify events in your sample with the exact time of occurrence, offering real-time, complex in-situ capabilities, recording and visualizing a multitude of physical processes — compression, torsion, tension, flow, heating, cooling, growth of forms, dissolution of liquids and many other dynamic events.
See how dynamic micro-CT can be combined with numerical modeling to fully understand material behavior.
Application Spectrum
High Resolution
600 nm
Using state-of-the art x-ray sources, precision stages and high-quality detectors, high resolution – down to 600 nm on UniTOM HR – is guaranteed on all TESCAN micro-CT systems.
Faster Scan
< 5 sec.
Short scan times enable high throughput, enhance system availability and reduce the cost per sample. TESCAN micro-CT offers best-in-class scan times, often limiting scan time to minutes or less. Of course, high image quality is maintained.
Modularity
Up to 3
Upgrade your TESCAN micro-CT system with additional detectors. Offering higher resolution, better contrast or different imaging modalities – such as spectral micro-CT imaging. Modularity extends the lifetime of your investment
4D In-Situ Scan
Dynamic ready
Unique tools for the acquisition, reconstruction and processing of 4D datasets, combined with ample connectivity possibilities for communication and interaction with complex in-situ devices.
Probe Dimensions
Samples up to 1 meter tall and 60 cm diameter can be scanned in the TESCAN UniTOM XL, without the need of any sample preparation. Using TESCAN VOIs, the sample is automatically repositioned to zoom in to any location.
Nondestructive
Micro-CT is non-destructive, enabling multi-scale studies of the same sample, performing time-resolved experiments, and allowing the same samples to be investigated further using other imaging or analytical techniques.
Software Suite
Powerful, in-house developed software – PantheraTM and AcquilaTM – control TESCAN micro-CT systems and make the acquired data accessible and comprehensible. All data is compatible with third party software packages.
