3D localisation and visualisation of cracks

Microtomography enables the non-destructive detection and 3D visualization of cracks. It accurately quantifies the size, shape, and volume of cracks, including their propagation depth.

This volumetric measurement capability allows for the assessment of structural integrity, the monitoring of degradation progression, and the optimization of materials. Essential in R&D, it helps prevent failures and improve durability, particularly in the aerospace, automotive, and medical device sectors.
