Introducing MIRRORCLE-CV4
The MIRRORCLE CV series products are perhaps the most revolutionary in the Photon Production Ltd.
They are the smallest X-ray converter magnet system designed by Photon Production Laboratory
and are characterized by the following unique attributes:
- Ultra compact design that is fully self contained and includes integral radiation shielding.
Product is designed as a ready to use appliance like device for on site and field applications.
- Elegant permanent magnet system designed for reduced weight and power consumption as well as
enhanced reliability through simplicity.
- Comparatively lower energy range output spectrum resolves radiation shielding problems while operating
in a close quarter environment.
- Output spectrum and physical geometry oriented towards high resolution phase contrast imaging.
- Low cost with high performance makes it suitable for many new cost sensitive entry level
applications.
MIRRORCLE-CV4 was designed with the capability of forming part of a field based mobile non-destructive testing
platform. Shown below is an example truck based configuration with MIRRORCLE-CV4 capable of performing NDT
inspection of bridges, buildings, and other structures normally inaccessible to this type of testing.
Like with other MIRRORCLE products, X-ray output is highly dependent on the interchangeable
target positioned in the electron beam inside the X-ray converter magnet system. This is a very active area of
research and most likely existing product will be able to take advantage of future target improvements.
The graph below shows the output spectrum of MIRRORCLE-CV1 and MIRRORCLE-CV4 using different materials
for a particular physical target configuration.
While we have discussed a couple of example applications, there are many more possible applications
where MIRRORCLE CV series products would excel. We welcome discussions on any potential
MIRRORCLE applications you might have.
MIRRORCLE-CV series products are production products that are ready to meet your requirements today.
