X-ray Source & Camera Selection Guide

X-ray Source & Camera Selection Guide
More and more factories and research labs, faced with ever stricter demands for quality and safety in all
types of food and industrial products, are finding that non-contact, non-destructive X-ray inspection is extremely effective in upgrading quality and safety since it detects tiny product structural flaws and foreign
object contamination - with no product damage whatsoever.
Hamamatsu Photonics has a full line of X-ray sources and cameras for X-ray inspection of electronic components, industrial products as well as for a wide range of fields to meet needs in food processing, medical treatment and security.
This pamphlet introduces typical items from our large product lineup and will prove a convenient selection guide for finding the precise answer to your specific application needs.
For more information on any of the products please contact your local Hamamatsu office.
These photos show just some examples of X-ray imaging. Image quality depends on the conditions such as inspection environments, object materials
and system configurations.

The Hamamatsu microfocus X-ray sources were developed specifically
for X-ray non-destructive inspection. These X-ray sources use an X-ray
tube with a small focal spot of several micro meter to 10 micro meter
capable of producing a clear X-ray image even at a high magnification.
The RS-232C interface is provided as a standard feature, allowing
automatic operation by external control. The X-ray tube has an aircooled and hermetically sealed structure, and is integrated with its high
voltage power supply for easy handling. (High voltage cables are not
required.)

FEATURES
FEATURES
■On-chip signal integration
■Digital output
■High sensitivity
■Wide dynamic range
This is a digital CCD camera coupled with a scintillator-coated fiber plate
designed for low level X-ray imaging. A wide area can be viewed by using
a tapered type fiber plate. When the fiber plate is not coated with
scintillator materials, this type of CCD camera can be readily coupled to
an image intensifier for low-light-level imaging.

X-CUBEs are compact X-ray CCD Cameras designed for non-destructive
inspection. There are three different models in the X-CUBE family-the
H8480, H8481 and H8953. The H8480 and H8953 use a 2/3-inch CCD
coupled to a large-diameter tapered FOP. This FOP is coated with CsI.
The H8481 uses a straight type FOP instead of the large FOP, achieving
a high resolution of 20 Lp/mm.

X-ray I. I. camera units
4-inch X-ray I. I. digital camera unit C7336 series
4-inch beryllium window X-ray I. I. camera unit C7876
FEATURES
FEATURES
■Digital output: Camera Link compliance
■High resolution, High contrast
■Low distortion
■Real time imaging
■Analog output
The C7336-03/04 consist of a high resolution, high contrast 4-inch X-ray
image intensifier (X-ray I.I.) and a 1.45 megapixel digital CCD camera.
The X-ray I.I. used has a fixed field-of-view of 100 mm diameter and an
input window made of thin aluminum which is excellent in X-ray transmission and causes less scattering of X-rays. These features allow real-time
detection at X-ray energy levels from about 20 keV.
The C7876 is an X-ray I. I. (image intensifier) camera unit incorporating a
4-inch beryllium window X-ray I. I. and a CCD camera. The C7876 offers
greatly improved X-ray detection efficiency even at low energy levels by
using an X-ray I. I. having a beryllium window instead of conventional
aluminum windows. Clear, sharp X-ray images can be captured even
from light element materials such as plastics. Also available is the C7336
X-ray image intensifier camera unit that uses an aluminum input window.
Digital output type is also available.
