SkyScan1174 (compact micro-CT)
The SkyScan 1174 is a compact, cost-effective micro-CT scanner
with variable magnification. Fast scanning, straightforward
control, small footprint and maintenance-free operation make
the 1174 an ideal solution for scientific research, quality
control and industrial applications.
This scanner uses an x-ray source with adjustable voltage
and a range of filters for versatile adaptation to different
object densities. A sensitive 1.3 megapixel x-ray camera allows
scanning of your whole sample volume in several minutes. Variable
magnification (6-30 µm pixel size) is combined with object
positioning for easy selection of the object part to be scanned.
The scanner can run from any desktop or portable computer,
requiring just one USB (or serial) port and a FireWire (IEEE1394)
input. The full range of SkyScan software is supplied, including
fast volumetric reconstruction, software for 2D / 3D quantitative
analysis and for realistic 3D visualization.
