Introduction This case study was performed to demonstrate how routine X-ray CT inspection adds value to medical implant production, ensuring quality and reliability. This particular case is for 3D printed (additively manufactured) titanium hip and knee implants but the methodology is applicable to all manufacturing techniques, not only additively manufactured implants. X-ray CT inspection is …

This example shows a typical microCT analysis of 3D printed parts. 3D printing and additive manufacturing technologies differ widely and quality control of these parts are very important. In this example, Markforged parts were scanned of the following types: 1. Nylon 2. Short fibres in onyx plastic 3. Long fibres in nylon Here is a …

Our first 3D print from a nanoCT scan data set (blown up from 1 mm to 150 mm length) was successful! In this image the happy client is holding his 3D print of a microstructure within his material. This is a great way to visualize and demonstrate 3D information, great for presentations. When added to …

Our first 3D print is completed! As experts in 3D scanning, taking visualization to the next level with physical prints is something we’ve been looking forward to for a long time. This first print is a DNA helix – not a CT Scan data set just yet. 3D printing will be offered as an accessible …
