Laboratory Cone-Beam X-Ray MicroCT System

A prototype of a laboratory cone-beam X-ray microtomography (microCT) system has been designed. The designed microCT setup is based on a microfocus X-ray source operating with accelerating voltages in the range of 30–80 kV. The developed microCT system functioning is automated, and a software for reconstructing 3D images is developed. The results of tomographic studies of several test objects with a resolution below 10 µm are demonstrated.
