Core Insights - Shimadzu, a pioneer in industrial X-ray system manufacturing with over 90 years of history, will continue to leverage its expertise in imaging technology to support quality control and R&D innovation for global manufacturing and research institutions [1][7]. Product Launch - On October 15, 2025, Shimadzu announced the global launch of the new micro-focus X-ray CT system, inspeXio 7000, designed to meet the increasing demands for precision and application range in industrial non-destructive testing [2]. Technical Advantages - The core advantage of the inspeXio 7000 lies in its large high-resolution flat panel detector, which enables wide-field imaging while effectively suppressing noise interference, resulting in high-definition and high-contrast CT images that accurately reproduce the internal structures of samples [3]. - The system is compatible with larger and more complex samples, thereby expanding the detection range [3]. User Experience - The new CT control software, inspeXio64 ver3.0, significantly reduces the operational threshold, enhancing the usability and detection efficiency of the equipment [5]. Application Areas - Thanks to the collaboration of Shimadzu's self-developed micro-focus X-ray generator and high-sensitivity flat panel detector, the inspeXio 7000 excels in non-destructive testing, making it an ideal tool for R&D and quality control in fields such as lithium-ion batteries, electronic devices, and automotive components [7]. - The system is suitable for high-precision testing of automotive parts like aluminum die-cast components and can clearly present the internal structures of lightweight materials such as glass fiber reinforced plastics (GFRP) and carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP), providing strong support for material research and quality management [7].
