How much of the assembly item can be captured with a CT scan?
[Mitarepo] The internal structure is completely visible! We investigated how much of the assembly, which cannot be seen from the outside, can be captured with a CT scan!
"Mitarepo" is a series that introduces what can be done using various products with the concept of "I tried doing this!" We deliver useful information each time from the wide range of product genres handled by System Create. The theme of Vol. 39 is "We investigated how much of an assembly item can be captured with a CT scan!" CT scans are used in industrial fields, but it can be hard to imagine their actual applications. This time, we tried everything from CT scanning to data analysis! Using a Rubik's Cube as an example of an assembly item, we verified the following: 1) Structural confirmation: Checking how the internal structure can be captured 2) Defect analysis: Confirming the presence of voids inside plastic molded products 3) Verification with the actual item: Disassembling the workpiece to check the contents "What does a structure that can't be seen from the outside look like?" "What can be done with a product's CT scan?" We will explain the visibility and applications of CT scan data, along with verification photos and comments from technical staff. *You can download the materials from the button below.
