Can my older machine be upgraded?
In most cases, yes, at least for some of its components. We check compatibility before any recommendation.
Is my CT system compatible with the latest RX Solutions upgrades?
In most cases, yes. Depending on the age and configuration of your system, we can assess the compatibility of detectors, X-ray generators, software solutions, computing setups or automation options before making any recommendation.
Is an upgrade cheaper than a full replacement?
Very often. An upgrade lets you add the capabilities you actually need without investing in a whole new system. You optimize your existing equipment while keeping your budget under control.
Which parts of my system can be upgraded?
Depending on your configuration, many components can evolve: detectors, cameras, nano source, computing workstation, reconstruction software, automation, motorized stages or accessories for new applications.
Can I improve the resolution of my existing CT system?
Yes. Some upgrades give access to higher resolution through more powerful sources (nano-CT or high-energy, for example), suitable detectors or an optimized acquisition and reconstruction chain.
Is it possible to scan larger samples?
Yes. Integrating imagers with a wider field of view lets you inspect larger parts or reduce the number of acquisitions needed for certain applications.
Can I speed up my 3D reconstructions?
Yes. Hardware and software upgrades can significantly cut reconstruction times and make it easier to process ever-larger data volumes.
Can an upgrade improve image quality?
Yes. New generations of detectors, cameras and reconstruction algorithms deliver sharper images, improve the signal-to-noise ratio and reduce certain artifacts. For multi-material parts, RX Solutions offers
HORUS, an advanced reconstruction solution.
Can I automate more of my inspections?
Yes. Options such as sample loaders, automatic filter changers or certain software solutions increase productivity and reduce operator intervention.
Do upgrades require long machine downtime?
It depends on the type of upgrade. Our team plans each intervention to limit the impact on your business and get your system back in service as quickly as possible.
How do I know which upgrades are really relevant for my application?
Our experts analyze your CT system’s current configuration, your constraints and your goals. We only recommend upgrades that bring a concrete benefit for your applications, whether in resolution, productivity, automation or new inspection capabilities.
Will my CT system be able to handle new applications after an upgrade?
That is precisely one of the main goals of an upgrade. A suitable hardware or software evolution can open up access to new materials, sample sizes, levels of detail or inspection workflows.
What is the difference between a retrofit and an upgrade?
A retrofit replaces a component to maintain the system’s reliability or maintainability. An upgrade aims to improve the CT system’s performance, productivity or capabilities so it can do more.
