May 03 2023 - 9:05AM
Business Wire
Varex Imaging Corporation (Nasdaq: VREX) announced today the
launch of its XRD 3131N digital X-ray detector, addressing the
growing need for faster and more comprehensive inspection in
high-paced Electric Vehicle (EV) battery manufacturing,
strengthening our current portfolio for the EV battery inspection
market.
XRD 3131N enables a rapid and more thorough inspection
process
- Engineered for high inspection throughput in 24/7 manufacturing
cycles
- Powers premium quality imaging across various inspection
platforms
- Flexible shielding options to withstand continuous high dose
radiation
The XRD 3131N digital detector was developed in response to the
need for faster inspection tools that deliver detailed information
across 24/7 manufacturing cycles. With imaging at up to 150 frames
per second and capturing images at 100 µm, the features of the XRD
3131N support the increased need for rapid in-line non-destructive
testing. This is particularly critical in the electric vehicle
battery market where the continued global adoption of EVs is
pressuring battery manufacturers for increased production.
“The rapidly growing electric vehicle market has become
increasingly more demanding on battery manufacturers,” said Sunny
Sanyal, Chief Executive Officer of Varex. Sanyal added, “Our XRD
3131N digital detector addresses the needs of our customers to
inspect these critical components in a growing and fast paced
manufacturing environment.”
Increased throughput across various manufacturing
platforms
The XRD 3131N digital detector provides EV battery manufacturers
with an integral component to augment their efforts to comply with
rigorous customer safety requirements. In addition, the detector
supports manufacturers to pursue increased inspection quality
levels and stringent safety requirements while continuing to meet
high throughput demands. Overall, the XRD 3131N digital detector
targets industry goals such as fewer faults and increased safety by
facilitating detailed inline 3D-CT imaging across various
manufacturing processes.
“The XRD 3131N, built on Varex Imaging’s decades of experience
in Industrial and High-Dose imaging applications, is expected to
become a work-horse detector capable of delivering high frame rates
that enable in-line inspection of EV batteries and high-resolution
imaging over a wide X-ray dose range to inspect complex parts,”
said Jesse Merkley, VP & GM of Industrial Imaging. Merkley
added “In addition to battery inspection, we are excited the XRD
3131N will expand our current portfolio for the 3D printed
aerospace parts imaging market, supporting our customers need for
inspection solutions that keep pace with the most advanced
manufacturing requirements.”
