Industrial X-Ray CT Scanner / NDT Inspection

RF System Lab NAOMi-CT 3D-L

Industrial X-Ray Computed Tomography Scanner

The RF System Lab NAOMi-CT 3D-L is the larger-envelope, higher-resolution sibling in the NAOMi-CT line, designed for non-destructive volumetric inspection of mid-size samples up to a Φ300 × H320 mm envelope and 20 kg in weight. A 100 kV / 10 mA micro-focus X-ray source pairs with an 11.4 MP amorphous-Si flat-panel detector at 76 µm pixel pitch — nearly 6× the pixel count of the 3D-M — to deliver high-density 95 µm voxel reconstructions of larger automotive castings, full electronics assemblies, complex composite lay-ups, and mid-size injection moldings. Each scan completes in approximately 45 seconds. The cabinet is FDA-classified self-shielded under 21 CFR 1020.40 — no X-ray room, no licensed operator.

RF System Lab NAOMi-CT 3D-L industrial X-ray CT scanner — front view
01
CT Scanner Overview

A self-shielded mid-envelope CT scanner with metrology-grade detector resolution.

The NAOMi-CT 3D-L is the mid-tier scanner in the RF System Lab industrial CT line, engineered for QA and R&D teams that need a larger scan envelope and a higher-resolution detector than the entry-tier 3D-M, without stepping into the six-figure metrology-CT category. The 11.4 MP amorphous-Si flat-panel detector at 76 µm pixel pitch is the structural difference: 5.7× the pixels of the 3D-M means a much larger field of view at the same voxel target, plus more usable detail per slice on complex geometries. The 100 kV / 10 mA source remains the right kV class for aluminum, polymers, electronics, composites, and food / packaging samples up to Φ300 mm. Each scan completes in roughly 45 seconds; the cabinet is self-shielded to FDA 21 CFR 1020.40 for benchtop / factory-floor deployment.

95µm
Minimum Voxel
95 µm reconstructed voxel resolves porosity, void chains, fiber orientation, and inclusion structure across a larger sample envelope than the 3D-M.
Φ300mm × 320mm
Scan Envelope (Φ × H)
Holds full automotive castings, mid-size electronics assemblies, complete plastic moldings, and composite lay-ups in their native geometry.
100kV / 10mA
X-Ray Source
100 kV / 10 mA micro-focus tube. Right kV class for aluminum up to ~10 mm, polymers, electronics, composites, and food / packaging across the larger envelope.
11.4MP
Flat Panel Detector
11.4 MP amorphous-Si flat panel at 76 µm pixel pitch. 5.7× the pixel count of the 3D-M, with 14-bit dynamic range for high-density features alongside polymer / foam structure.
SELF-SHIELDED
No X-Ray Room Required
FDA-classified cabinet X-ray (21 CFR 1020.40). No X-ray room build-out, no licensed operator. Same self-shielded design as the 3D-M, scaled up.
20kg
Max Sample Weight
20 kg maximum sample weight on the rotation stage — 2× the 3D-M capacity. Machine itself is ~70 kg with a 820 × 420 × 400 mm footprint.
02
X-Ray Source

100 kV / 10 mA micro-focus source with 0.5 mm focal spot.

Same source class as the 3D-M, calibrated to the larger envelope and higher-MP detector.

The 3D-L runs the same 100 kV / 10 mA micro-focus tube and 0.5 mm focal spot as the entry-tier 3D-M — the upgrade is in the detector and the scan envelope, not the source. Penetration limits stay the same: aluminum to ~10 mm, polymers and composites at any sample-size-bound thickness, electronics, food / packaging, biological specimens. Above 100 kV, step up to a higher-kV vendor (Nikon Metrology / ZEISS METROTOM tier). Oil and air cooling keep the tube stable across continuous duty.

Not sure if 100kV is enough penetration for your sample?

Send Rev1 your sample geometry, density, and target defect size. We will help validate whether the NAOMi-CT 3D-L's 100kV / 10mA source has the penetrating power for your inspection workflow before you quote.

03
Flat Panel Detector

Metrology-grade detector resolution: 11.4 MP at 76 µm pixel pitch.

The 3D-L's defining advantage is the detector. An 11.4 MP amorphous-Si FPD at 76 µm pixel pitch (5.7× the pixel count of the 3D-M) delivers high slice density across the larger Φ300 envelope at the 95 µm reconstructed voxel target.

76µm
Pixel Pitch
Finer pixel pitch than the 3D-M, calibrated to a larger envelope. Resolves sub-100 µm features across full-size automotive castings, mid-size electronics assemblies, and composite lay-ups.
11.4 MP
Active Detector Area
3792 × 3024 sensor — 5.7× the pixel count of the entry-tier 3D-M. More voxels per slice means more usable detail on complex geometries without sacrificing throughput.
14-bit
Dynamic Range
Wide bit-depth captures metal inserts and polymer housings in the same scan. Solder joints, internal cable lay, and composite ply structure all readable in one acquisition.

The 3D-L is the right answer when slice density is the binding requirement. Same self-shielded benchtop platform as the 3D-M, scaled to a larger sample envelope with a metrology-grade detector — without stepping into the six-figure facility-shielded metrology-CT category.

04
Scan Envelope & Sample Handling

Φ300 × H320 mm scan envelope. Up to 20 kg samples.

A 300 mm diameter by 320 mm height envelope holds full automotive castings, complete mid-size electronics assemblies, composite lay-ups, and most consumer-product geometries in their native form — one cubic-content-equivalent step up from the 3D-M's 250 / 230 mm. Sample weight is bounded at 20 kg by the rotation stage — double the 3D-M capacity. For parts at or near that limit, fixturing should distribute load evenly.

A precision rotation + Z-lift stage scaled to the 20 kg / Φ300 mm envelope.

Same architecture as the 3D-M sample stage, scaled up: rotation under controlled speed while source-to-detector Z-lift dials in the geometric magnification — trading scan diameter for voxel size as needed for the inspection job. Positioning repeatability holds at ~10 µm so scan-to-scan comparisons across a production lot stay meaningful.

NDT in Production

Full automotive castings. Mid-size electronics. Complete plastic moldings.

Automotive Casting QA
Full-size HPDC component porosity audit on a self-shielded benchtop platform.
Where the 3D-M handles small to mid aluminum die-castings, the 3D-L scales up to full automotive components — engine brackets, gearbox housings, transmission cases — with the same self-shielded benchtop deployment story. The 11.4 MP detector provides higher slice density across the larger sample, so void chains and shrinkage cavities are easier to call across a complete part rather than a partial-scan section. RF System Lab reference customers run 3D-L units in continuous HPDC porosity QA across automotive and consumer-product casting lines.
~10 mm
Aluminum penetration depth
Mid-size Electronics & Composite QA
Larger PCB assemblies, complete cable harnesses, composite lay-ups.
The 11.4 MP detector resolves solder joint voids, internal cable lay, and ply structure inside composite lay-ups across a sample envelope big enough to hold mid-size electronics assemblies, full cable harnesses, and complete composite test coupons. The 95 µm voxel is small enough to call solder voids, polymer flow defects, and assembly-tolerance failures inside the as-built part — without cutting it open, without stitching multiple scans of subsections.
11.4 MP
FPD detector resolution

These are the application classes the 3D-L was engineered around. For samples outside this band — thicker steel components, dense ceramics, large industrial assemblies above the Φ300 mm envelope — Rev1 will help size the right CT system, including a step up to a higher-kV vendor when the application requires it.

06
Reconstruction & Analysis

Filtered back projection, iterative reconstruction, defect quantification, CAD bridge.

The bundled NAOMi-CT software handles end-to-end acquisition, FBP and iterative reconstruction, multi-planar reformat (MPR), volume rendering, automated porosity and void quantification with CSV / report export, and surface extraction to STL or STEP for downstream CAD compare and dimensional metrology in VGSTUDIO MAX, Volume Graphics, or any standard CAD platform. Reconstructed volumes export as DICOM stack, TIFF stack, or VGL. The 11.4 MP detector means longer reconstruction time per scan (~2-5 min) than the 3D-M, but the higher-density data delivers more usable detail per slice.

Sample Compatibility

What the 3D-L is built to scan — and what it is not.

The 100 kV / 10 mA source qualifies the 3D-L for light alloys (aluminum to ~10 mm thick), polymers and composites at any sample-size-bound thickness, electronics assemblies including PCBs and cables, food packaging and contents, and biological specimens. For thicker steel components, dense ceramics, or sample sizes above the Φ300 mm envelope, Rev1 helps size a higher-kV or larger-envelope system — including the slide-format 3D-Slide L for large flat samples or a 225+ kV metrology vendor for dense materials.

Competitive Comparison

NAOMi-CT 3D-L vs. industry benchmarks & intra-brand peers.

We benchmark the 3D-L against the standard metrology-CT punch-up tier (Nikon Metrology XT H 225 ST 2x and ZEISS METROTOM 1500) plus an open-vendor mid-market peer (North Star Imaging X5000), and against the natural intra-brand cross-shop (NAOMi-CT 3D-M, the smaller-envelope sibling). The goal is buyer clarity: where the 3D-L leads on price-per-MP, deployability, and scan time — and where a different system genuinely fits better.

Rev1 takeaway: the 3D-L is the right machine for in-house QA and R&D on mid-envelope samples that need higher detector resolution than the 3D-M. Punch up to 225 kV / sub-10-µm metrology systems only when dense materials or sub-10-µm voxel is the binding constraint. Step down to the 3D-M when the Φ250 mm envelope fits the application. Application review with Rev1 is the fastest way to confirm fit before quote.

Buyer FAQ

RF System Lab NAOMi-CT 3D-L questions buyers ask before quoting.

What is the NAOMi-CT 3D-L designed for?
The NAOMi-CT 3D-L is a self-shielded benchtop industrial X-ray CT scanner for non-destructive 3D inspection of mid-size samples that exceed the entry-tier 3D-M envelope or need the higher 11.4 MP detector resolution. Typical use cases are full automotive HPDC component porosity audit, mid-size electronics and PCB assembly verification, composite lay-up internal structure analysis, EV battery and module inspection, and complete plastic injection molding QA.
How does the 3D-L compare to the entry-tier 3D-M?
The 3D-L runs the same 100 kV / 10 mA micro-focus source as the 3D-M, but it has a much larger scan envelope (Φ300 × H320 mm vs Φ250 × H230 mm), 2× the sample weight capacity (20 kg vs 10 kg), and a 5.7× higher-MP detector (11.4 MP at 76 µm pitch vs 2.0 MP at 98 µm). The 3D-L is the right answer when the sample is too large for the 3D-M envelope, or when slice density / detail-per-scan is the binding inspection requirement.
What materials and sample types can the 3D-L scan?
The 100 kV / 10 mA source qualifies the 3D-L for light alloys including aluminum up to roughly 10 mm thick, polymers and composites at any sample-size-bound thickness, electronics including larger PCBs and cable harnesses, food packaging and contents, and biological specimens — across an envelope big enough for full automotive components and mid-size electronics assemblies.
How small a defect can the 3D-L resolve?
The 3D-L reconstructs voxels down to 95 µm in partial-scan mode. Slightly larger than the 3D-M's 80 µm because the envelope is bigger, but the 11.4 MP detector means more usable voxels per scan and far more detail density per slice. Small enough to image porosity, hairline cracks, void chains, fiber orientation, fine inclusions, solder voids, and polymer flow defects on the sample classes the system targets.
How long does a scan take on the 3D-L?
A single 3D CT scan completes in approximately 45 seconds — same as the 3D-M. Reconstruction takes longer (~2-5 minutes per scan) because the 11.4 MP detector produces more data per slice, but the higher data density delivers proportionally more inspection detail. Production-QA cycles with multiple parts per shift remain practical.
Does the 3D-L require an X-ray room or licensed operator?
No. Same self-shielded design as the 3D-M, scaled to the larger envelope. The cabinet is FDA-classified under 21 CFR 1020.40 with radiation leakage below 1 µSv/h at 5 cm from the cabinet exterior. Operate it on a standard factory floor or QA bench — no X-ray room build-out, no facility shielding plan, no licensed-operator credential required.
What software does the 3D-L use, and can I export to my existing CAD or metrology workflow?
The 3D-L ships with the bundled NAOMi-CT software for acquisition, FBP and iterative reconstruction, multi-planar reformat, volume rendering, and automated porosity / void quantification with CSV and report export. Reconstructed volumes export as DICOM stack, TIFF stack, or VGL for downstream analysis in VGSTUDIO MAX or Volume Graphics. Surface extraction to STL or STEP supports CAD-compare and dimensional-metrology workflows in any standard CAD platform.
What does Rev1 installation, training, and post-sale support include?
Rev1 supports 3D-L buyers from quote through production. Pre-sale: application review, sample-fit validation, facility power and footprint check. At install: setup guidance, calibration verification, operator orientation on acquisition and reconstruction software. Post-sale: phone and video support, software-workflow guidance, parts coordination, and engineering troubleshooting from Auburn Hills, Michigan. Rev1 is the US sales and support partner for the RF System Lab NAOMi-CT product line.
How does the 3D-L compare to a Nikon Metrology XT H 225 ST 2x?
The Nikon Metrology XT H 225 ST 2x is a metrology-grade CT system with a 225 kV source and sub-10 µm voxel resolution. It runs roughly 6× the 3D-L price and requires a shielded X-ray room build-out plus a licensed operator. The 3D-L is the right answer when the application is light alloys, polymers, or electronics in the 95 µm voxel band on a self-shielded benchtop platform — not when sub-10 µm on dense materials is the binding constraint.
How does the 3D-L compare to a ZEISS METROTOM 1500?
The ZEISS METROTOM 1500 has a comparable scan envelope to the 3D-L (Φ300 × H350 mm) but at 225 kV with ~8 µm voxel resolution and integrated ZEISS CAD-compare / GD&T workflow. It runs ~8× the 3D-L price. Choose ZEISS when the production line already runs ZEISS metrology software and the parts justify integrated dimensional inspection at production cadence. Choose the 3D-L when 95 µm voxel and a self-shielded benchtop platform fit the application.
