• The Basic Module - for total system control, operator interface, and if required, automated defect recognition.  Everything that concerns your application is entered through the Windows-based Graphic User Interface.   Applications specific data, operational parameters and Service information are all readily accessible and executable through this operator-friendly interface.

• The Standard Modules - proven modules are combined and implemented at any time to form the system you require without costly non-recurring engineering and integration time.

• Configurability - for your specific requirements.  We recognize not all customers have the same requirements.   Functions can be easily added to the PXV5000--without rewriting or reinventing the whole system!

The PXV5000 can be implemented as a stand alone system or it may be easily integrated into a manufacturing process.  At all times you may rest assured that the PXV5000 is working for you.  Performing objective, tireless, and repeatable processes.

System setup is extremely user friendly and requires little X-ray experience, if any.  Knowledge of image analysis is not required.  Test programs are loaded either automatically by the test sample recognition module or by the operator using a standard computer mouse to point and click.   The advantage of the automated test sample recognition module is that sorting of different styles of test samples is not required.  This allows the system to be fed with all production samples you have in your production line in random order.

PXV5000 Basic System includes:

Hardware:

-  Industrial PC
-  Operator Interface Monitor 20"
-  Imaging Monitor 17"
-  Keyboard and Mouse
-  I/O Control (e.g. SPS)

Software:

-  Windows-based Graphic User Interface
-  System Control for Part Handling and X-ray Parameters
-  Automated Defect Recognition
-  Data Communication

Available Standard Modules

• Part Recognition -- This module reads a code off the sample.  The code can be applied or cast into the part.  By implementing this method, random testing of samples is realized and time is saved.

• Statistical Data -- This module stores type, location and occurrence of defects.  A warning is given when unusual increases in defects are determined.

• Part Marking System -- You can select to mark good or defective samples or both.  You can also use different markings for different decisions made by the system.

• Part sorting -- This module sorts the defective and the accepted samples.  This assures that only accepted samples can exit the system for further processing.

• Remote Diagnosis -- The system is also equipped with a remotely accessed phone modem which allows the system to be updated and serviced from a remote location.
