About This System
The PiXS 500/90/XLW provides a level of capability years in advance throughout the industry. This walk-in vault system is a PXS hybrid. This system combined with a temperature control module and precision scales allows advanced metrology, CAD to CT comparison, and much more. Manufacturing methods such as metal 3D printing is expanding the limits of typical designed hardware. Depending on inspection needs, C-arm (tube and detector), robot, tensile testers, and more options can be added to this design. The limits of this system are endless whether using it for research, laboratory qualification, or production.
