ZEISS Xradia 515 Versa

3D 서브 마이크론 이미징을 위한 최상의 장비

ZEISS Xradia 510 Versa

Break the one micron resolution barrier with this X-ray microscope for 3D imaging and in situ / 4D investigations.

Use the combination of resolution and contrast with flexible working distances to extend the power of non-destructive imaging in your lab.

Benefit from its architecture that uses a two-stage magnification technique to achieve submicron resolution at a distance (RaaD). Reducing dependence upon geometric magnification maintains submicron resolution even at large working distances.

Sintered Powder Steel

Non-destructive 3D imaging is crucial for additive manufacturing development. A powder stainless steel sample was laser-sintered and imaged by ZEISS Xradia Versa. From the 3D dataset, the non-sintered solid phase was virtually segmented and volume quantified. XRM also provides ability to do interior tomography and look at virtual cross-sections without damage to the sample. Sample courtesy of NIST.

Advanced Reconstruction Toolbox (ART) introduces Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven reconstruction technologies on your ZEISS Xradia 3D X-ray microscope (XRM) or microCT. A deep understanding of both X-ray physics and applications enable you to solve some of the hardest imaging challenges in new and innovative ways.

Discover how speed of data acquisition and reconstruction as well as image quality are enhanced without sacrificing resolution by using OptiRecon, two variants of DeepRecon and PhaseEvolve, the unique modules of ART.

With the Advanced Reconstruction Toolbox, you are able to:

  • Improve data collection and analysis for accurate and faster decision-making
  • Greatly enhance image quality
  • Achieve superior interior tomography or throughput on a broad class of samples
  • Reveal subtle difference through improved contrast-to-noise
  • Increase speed at an order of magnitude for sample classes requiring repetitive workflow

ZEISS DeepRecon Pro provides a straightforward, uncomplicated, and powerful application of AI and deep neural network technology for enhancing X-ray tomography results without prior knowledge on deep learning technology. [...] It helps us to reduce the scan time required for in situ fluid-rock interaction experiments when we need to work with long exposure times.

ZEISS DeepRecon Pro & Custom for Deep learning-based reconstruction

Increase the speed of your data acquisition with reconstruction technology

DeepRecon technology is offered in two forms - DeepRecon Pro and DeepRecon Custom - both leveraging AI and enhancing image quality and speed. Increase throughput without sacrificing RaaD (resolution-at-a-distance). Alternatively, keep the same number of projections and enhance the image quality further.

DeepRecon Pro used for throughput improvement for Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) sample, achieving 10× throughput improvement without sacrificing image quality. This would allow for much higher temporal resolution for in situ studies. Left: Standard reconstruction (FDK): Scan time 9 hrs (3001 projections). Center: Standard reconstruction (FDK): Scan time 53 mins (301 projections). Right: DeepRecon Pro: Scan time 53 mins (301 projections).

Find out the difference:

  • With DeepRecon Pro you benefit from superior throughput and image quality across a wide range of applications.
  • It enables you to reveal subtle differences in the images of your samples through improved contrast-to-noise.
  • Increase the speed of your data acquisition up to 10x for sample classes requiring a repetitive workflow.
  • Apply DeepRecon Pro to unique samples, to semi-repetitive and repetitive workflows.
  • Now you can self-train new machine learning network models on-site with an easy-to-use interface.
  • The need for a machine learning expert is thus eliminated and DeepRecon Pro can be seamlessly operated by even a novice user.
  • ZEISS DeepRecon Custom is targeted specifically for repetitive workflow applications to further boost XRM performance beyond DeepRecon Pro.
  • ZEISS collaborates closely with users to develop custom-created network models that fit their repetitive application needs precisely.

ZEISS PhaseEvolve for contrast enhancement

What if your image contrast of which you know is uniquely inherent to 
X-ray microscopy is overprinted by phase effects in low-medium density samples, or high resolution datasets?

  • Use PhaseEvolve, a post-processing reconstruction algorithm.
    It enables you to enhance your image contrast.
  • Perform more accurate quantitative analysis with improved contrast
    and segmentation of your results.

The image on the right shows an application of PhaseEvolve to a pharmaceutical powder sample. High resolution or low kV imaging can result in inherent material contrast being obscured by phase contrast artifacts. PhaseEvolve effectively removes phase fringes to enhance image contrast and improve segmentation results.

Wide Field Mode (WFM) can be used to image across an extended lateral field of view. The wide lateral field of view can provide 3x larger 3D volume for large samples, or give a higher voxel density for a standard field of view. All Xradia Versa systems are capable of WFM with the 0.4x objective. The Xradia 620 Versa system also features WFM with the 4x objective. In combination with Vertical Stitching, WFM enables you to image larger samples at exceptional resolution.
