GKS Inspection Services, a provider of dimensional inspection, 3D laser scanning, and terrestrial scanning services, has expanded its capabilities to include computed tomography (CT) scanning services and systems sales. High-accuracy CT scanning enables 3D scanning of parts with complex internal geometry. Visual access is not required for CT scanning so the process is nondestructive.

CT scanning is a measurement method suited to many different industries for inspection of complex parts and assemblies too difficult to measure with conventional touch probe or line-of-sight vision-based scanning technologies. The speed and precision make CT scanning a viable option for nondestructive testing of production line and critical components. GKS offers customers the option of sending parts in for scanning services, or of purchasing their own CT scanning system.

Customizable two- and three-dimensional inspections of small- to medium-sized objects generate 3D XYZ scan data in standard file format outputs for inspection, reverse engineering, and defect analysis applications. Parts with small, complex, and fine geometry from the medical and electronics industries benefit especially from this technology.
