Gantry CT.
The part rests while source and detector rotate around it. Made for long workpieces, battery modules and inline cells.
In Royma's Gantry CT systems the part rests and the CT moves: source and detector rotate on a ring around a workpiece that lies flat on a table or a conveyor. Long and heavy parts are scanned without being lifted or clamped, and battery cells are scanned without any clamping force on the housing, which makes the gantry the geometry of choice for modules, packs and the production line.
The RMCT7000 scans workpieces up to 2000 × 420 × 160 mm in its standard configuration with a closed 200 kV microfocus tube, at the line or inline, and measures with a precision of 35 µm depending on thickness and material. The Quick CT is the at-line system for battery cells: loaded by hand, it checks the four corners of a cell for overhang and the tab welds in one cycle. The RMLCT7500 is the inline system for prismatic cells, with a corner scan of 4 to 8 seconds and up to 36 cells per minute by number of rings.
Choose Gantry CT when the part is long, heavy or sensitive to clamping, and when the scan has to happen where the part is produced rather than in a laboratory. The inline members of the family are also listed under Inline CT.
