The 3D computer tomography unit can be retrofitted to all Viscom systems of the X80xx series equipped with a rotated axis. With its use, it is possible to depict the internal structure of components in three dimensions. This is applied, for example, in prototype qualification, reverse engineering or in inspections carried out during production. Material defects are shown and defined according to type, geometry and location within the component. This way, packages, components, etc. can be checked for defects and dimensions. This means that flaws such as inclusions, cavities and many others can be detected using either non-destructive slices or a volume model. In this process, a number of two-dimensional projection images are recorded. By means of an algorithmic calculation of the image data, an equivalent number of object layers along the three geometric axes, as well as a three-dimensional volumetric reconstruction of the object are obtained. The two-dimensional projection images and three-dimensional calculation are carried out concurrently, so that computer tomography is fast. In preview mode, the first results are available after only a minute. Operation is simple, and is limited to just a few elements by means of which the main automated routines are launched. The display of the volumetric models shows two views. The normal view displays the calculated body in an infinite space, illuminated by white light from a single source. The spatial stereo view using a pair of 3D-glasses enables the viewer to “enter“ the volumetric model. As an alternative, the raw-data format also allows the results of the 3D-calculations to be displayed using third-party software solutions.
