Many critical parts simply don’t fit within the vertical limits of traditional CT systems. Tall bottles, helmets, footwear, battery cells, and long electronic assemblies often extend beyond the available field of view. This makes high-resolution inspection difficult, since it typically requires moving the part farther from the source.
Lumafield’s new Helical Scanning removes this constraint by moving the part upward as it rotates, capturing a continuous helical dataset that dramatically expands the vertical scan envelope. The result is the ability to scan high-aspect-ratio geometries at 10× or higher resolution. Engineers no longer have to choose between imaging an entire part at low resolution or scanning only a portion at high resolution.
