New high-power X-ray target from FEINFOCUS
New high-power X-ray target from FEINFOCUS
Keywords: X-rays, Electronic engineering
The latest high-power target from FEINFOCUS is a transmission target consisting of two layers: an interaction layer made of tungsten and a special backing layer that provides improved heat transfer and lower focal spot temperature.
The construction of the FEINFOCUS high-power target allows users to operate the X-ray tube with higher energies at the highest possible resolution, allowing for increased image contrast. The new target is ideal for the inspection of objects with low-contrast structures or objects with particularly high absorption structures.
As a rule, the thermal stress applied to the target increases with decreasing focal spot size and increasing tube power. Focal spot size, however, is a critical factor in determining geometric magnification and image resolution, while tube power influences the X-ray intensity output.
