HS-450 is a medium-to-large format industrial CT system built around a large focal spot and a 450 kV high-voltage X-ray source, engineered for large and complex workpieces. It resolves fine internal defects with high-resolution imaging, and its multiple inspection modes let a single machine cover a mixed production mix rather than one narrow part family. Porosity rate, wall thickness and the other critical parameters are analysed automatically, which is where the inspection throughput actually comes from. Operation is safe and straightforward thanks to full radiation shielding, a closed-tube source and intuitive controls. It is deployed across automotive and aerospace castings, welded industrial structures, composite materials, additive manufactured parts, special alloys, plastics and ceramics — a precise and efficient quality-control instrument for a broad industrial base.
| What the deal needs | What the factory supplies |
|---|---|
| Something to quote against | Configuration sheet with the exact detector, source and software scope, so your quotation and ours never contradict each other in front of the same buyer |
| Proof before the visit | Test scans of the customer's own sample, run in our exposure chamber, returned as volume data plus the analysis report — you walk into the meeting with images, not brochures |
| Tender paperwork | Technical compliance tables, drawings, CE and ISO documentation, and a factory audit visit when the tender requires one |
| Commissioning the site | Engineer dispatched for installation, calibration and operator training; handover checklist signed on site |
| Keeping it running | Closed-tube design means no filament consumable programme to manage; spare parts list and response commitment agreed before the first unit ships |
| Growing the territory | Territory and exclusivity terms discussed on volume commitment, not on a one-off order |
The 450 kV configuration is the top of the closed-tube range. It is specified when a 225 kV or 320 kV answer is honestly not enough: thick steel castings, dense alloy components, heavy weldments, thick ceramic bodies. In a competitive tender those are exactly the line items where a weaker source gets disqualified on the technical envelope rather than on price — which is the cheapest way for a distributor to lose a deal.
| Capability | What it wins you in the field |
|---|---|
| 450 kV closed-tube source, 1.5 kW | Penetration into dense alloy and thick steel sections where lower energy systems return grey instead of defect |
| 0.4 / 1.0 mm dual focal spot | Small spot for fine detail on the technical demo, large spot when the customer cares about throughput |
| 3072 × 3072 CsI flat panel, 140 µm, 16-bit | A specification line that stands up in a side-by-side comparison table |
| 430 × 430 mm active area, Φ830 × 1100 mm envelope | Covers the mid-to-large workpiece class most distributors meet in general industry |
| ±55° rotating arm, joystick control | Demonstrations that run smoothly in front of a customer instead of needing re-fixturing mid-demo |
| Radiation leakage below 0.5 µSv/h | Removes the "you will also need to build a shielded room" objection from the quotation |
| Automatic porosity and wall-thickness analysis with report output | Delivers a document, not just an image — the deliverable an end customer can actually accept |

| Can we represent you in our territory? | Yes — territory and exclusivity are discussed against a volume commitment. Tell us the country, the end markets you already sell into and your forecast, and we will put a proposal in writing. |
| Do you sell direct into our market? | Not behind a contracted partner. Territory discipline is the whole point of the arrangement. |
| How do we handle a technical objection we cannot answer? | Escalate with the sample data and the customer's requirement; our engineering team responds with a written technical position you can forward. |
| What about training our sales engineers? | Product and application training at the factory, plus joint customer visits during commissioning of the first unit in your territory. |
| What are the site requirements to quote to a customer? | 380 VAC ±10% 50/60 Hz three-phase, 6 kVA maximum, approximately 12000 kg on a level industrial floor, footprint 2620 × 2585 mm. No shielded room needed at below 0.5 µSv/h leakage. |
Send us the territory, the end markets and one customer sample. We will send back the scan, the specification pack and a dealer proposal.
