ZEISS Metrotomography: 3D CT Scanning
Metrotomography is the fusion of metrology and tomography. With ZEISS Metrotoms, it is now possible to measure highly precisely and non-destructively in areas where only destructive inspection was possible before or no quality assurance took place at all. Metrotomography allows you to measure the interior of a workpiece: all recorded data can be applied to all areas of quality assurance and be evaluated. Non-destructive testing technology, such as assembly inspection, damage and porosity analysis, material inspection and defect checks is possible as well as traditional evaluation, reverse engineering applications or a comparison of geometries.
