Faster Computed Tomography
The CT solution described in this article enables a reduction in scanning and reconstruction times to less than 2 minutes in total. Results are achieved through enhanced synchronization of scanning algorithms and sampling rate of detectors. This in combination with a high-power microfocus X-ray tube and fast reconstruction algorithms supported by hardware accelerators leads to previously unknown speeds of 3-D X-ray inspections.
