i3system’s line scanning X-ray detector platform, XID-C15DP/XID-C24DC, is a high performance and cost effective solution for dental panoramic, cephalometric applications. i3system’s direct type sensor ensures the most sharp images among the current products in the market. XID series is designed for compact size and easy installation. High DQE(Direct Quant㎛ Efficiency) enables high performance at lower dose of X-ray. Introduction Indirect type X-ray detector uses the scintillator and the photo-diode(CCD or CMOS sensor) for conversion of the X-ray into the light and for taking images espectively. But the light scatters and goes extinct during it passes through the scintillator and reaches to the CCD or CMOS sensor. As a result, it is inevitable to get blurred image. In the mean time, XID C15DP, direct type detector, converts X-rays into electronic signals directly without conversion process of light. Because X-ray is not converted into light, it provides much sharper images than indirect type detector. XID C15DP is designed to compact for easy installation. It provides Gigabit Ethernet port on the detector for easy configuration. Instead of Gigabit Ethernet, camera link or optical interface can be provided according to requirements of users.

Combined laser scan/video scope technology for gun barrel inspection, superior measuring results: With the RIB 4D, Kappa presents a new, high-performance system for large-caliber weapon barrel inspection designed for troops evaluating actual and post-firing status and calculating remaining service life. 3D Laser Scanner and 360° Videos: Within the completely newly designed RIB 4D measuring head, the entire bandwidth of the newest image-generating technology for seamless, complete barrel inspection is used. A supersensitive laser scan generates a detail-rich point cloud. In addition, 8 CMOS sensors provide the viewer with brilliant 360° videos of the barrel’s interior surfaces. The highly precise barrel digitization offers a comprehensive data basis for secure assessment of a barrel interior’s condition. Keeping it simple: only one operator required Simple handling means that just one person can operate the entire system. Independent of the operator, the automatic system delivers clear and reproducible measurement results. The barrel digitization is the reliable data basis for the subsequent location-independant assessment of the barrel condition. The compact system is designed for versatile use. One system for multiple barrel types and diameters RIB 4D is made for smooth and rifled barrels. With adapter rings, the system can easily be used for different calibers. The current RIB 4D version covers the range from 120 mm to 155 mm. Another version for smaller diameters is in preparation. Ultra-fast fully-automated barrel digitization (< 30 min.) The RIB 4D completes the entire high-resolution and precise measurement of the inside of the gun barrel sensationally fast in under 30 minutes (example Leopard 2), which speeds up and largely automates maintenance for system users and thus simplifies it to a great extent. Interactive Software for Reliable Assessment: The extensive data of the inspected surface is analyzed in the user-friendly application software and can be documented and evaluated as a report according to the service regulation TDv018. The interactive interface supports the detection and measurement of critical damaged areas and the final evaluation of the barrel condition and the determination of the remaining service life. Digitization of the inner barrel surface and precise measurement of damaged areas: The analysis covers erosion, corrosion, damage to the chrome coating including diameter measurement of the fields and lands and groves on rifled barrels. Complete solution all-in-one: The non-contact RIB 4B inspection system consists of the sensor head, the drive unit, the container with the drive chain, the server, the analysis laptop and extensive accessories. An unrivaled level of experience: We are the pioneering supplier in the area of gun barrel inspection; we know our customers’ requirements inside and out. Rely on our state-of-the-art systems based on modern technologies and decades of experience. Versatile use: Suitable for all smooth and rifled tubes in diameters between 120 mm and 155 mm used in tanks, artillery systems and naval guns. Reliable detection of damage Precise scanning of the damaged areas - quick location - simple measurement The system includes the noxRIB4D application software for system control, surface inspection and reporting. In the first step, the pipe is completely digitized on site with RIB 4D. Based on the data, the subsequent analysis can be carried out in the software independent of location. The noxRIB4D software offers two analysis screens, the Heat Map and the Intensity Map, for precise damage analysis. Finally, the analysis results are reported in Excel or TDv018 with evaluation of the barrel condition. COTS product: Direct market availability RIB 4D for 120 mm and 155 mm. Other diameter sizes with minor adjustments without new development.

Green Optics possess proprietary CVD-based Zinc Sulfide (ZnS) production technology for defense and industrial multi-wavelength optical materials. We have core technological capabilities to manufacture high-quality ZnS products tailored to meet diverse customer requirements. ZnS Material Optical Performance and Processing ZnS materials produced through CVD processes provide high transmittance exceeding 70% in the SWIR wavelength range (8-12 μm). When these materials undergo additional Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) treatment, the crystal structure undergoes recrystallization, improving transmission characteristics to achieve over 70% transmittance in the visible (VIS) wavelength range of 0.45-0.8 μm. This process extends the application range of optical materials previously limited to SWIR and LWIR bands, delivering superior optical performance across multi-wavelength regions from VIS to LWIR. Material Specifications: - STD-ZnS (Standard ZnS Material): Manufactured via CVD process, exhibits transmittance exceeding 70% in LWIR wavelengths (8-12 μm) with high physical hardness (Knoop hardness: 210 kgf/mm²). - MS-ZnS (Multispectral ZnS): Converted from STD-ZnS through HIP processing, extends wavelength range into the visible spectrum. While crystal structure recrystallization during this process reduces hardness somewhat (approximately 150 kgf/mm²), it still meets MIL specifications. This dual-processing approach enables comprehensive wavelength coverage while maintaining military-grade durability standards.

The semi-automatic ViscoTec mix-on-demand station is already in successful use as a mobile system. For reliable mixing and dosing of two-component materials, in situ. Two-component materials are commonly processed using premix cartridges, hardener rod cartridges or by mixing two components by hand. The disadvantages are obvious: The risk of human error, enormous material waste and high production costs offer every reason for taking the automated route. With ViscoTec filling stations, epoxy resins, polysulfides and polyurethanes can be removed from larger containers and filled on-demand with the exact quantity required. The dosing is volumetric on a component or a filling container. A typical application is dosing in so-called inserts (thread inserts). The compact arrangement of the components on a mobile frame guarantees the operator maximum flexibility. The design as a stationary system has already been implemented several times.
