X-ray computed tomography (CT) as a non-destructive technique for imaging the inner structure of objects has undergone a major technical and instrumentation development at the turn of the millennium. This allowed its significant use and expansion in industry. Nowadays, CT is an indispensable tool for trouble-shooting, design, improvement and quality check of the products. The actual trends of industrial CT development are in robotization for inspection automation, resolution improvement up to sub-micron level or implementation of high energy sources (linear accelerators) for inspection of large and massive objects.

ABOUT US
Based on long-term cooperation with industry, the CT system manufacturers themselves and the gained experience, the research centre Central European Institute of Technology (CEITEC BUT) and CactuX LINACTON s.r.o. are joining together to expand their portfolio with a high-energy X-ray computed tomography. For this purpose, a project called LINACTON is being created, the mission of which is to build a new centre with this technology and make it available for general industrial use. This technology is going to help to improve scientific, engineering and technical knowledge in line with current industry trends such as automation (Industry 4.0) and electrification (e-mobility).
CactuX LINACTON s.r.o. is a start-up company of CEITEC BUT. CEITEC BUT works with CT application and development for more than 10 years. Working together with selected global producers of CT instrumentation, it managed to establish several intercooperating laboratories. These laboratories are equipped with complex and complementary state of the art devices, covering a wide range of tomographic analysis. Besides fundamental research in different fields, the activities focus on close cooperation with industry, for which these laboratories provide a high-quality level of digital X-ray radiographic and tomographic expertise.
