Large-Part Industrial CT

See inside complex components without cutting them open.

The ZEISS METROTOM 1500 is an industrial CT solution for inspecting and measuring complex parts where important geometry may be hidden from conventional measurement methods.

Computed tomography reconstructs the component as a three-dimensional volumetric dataset, allowing internal and external characteristics to be evaluated within the same inspection workflow.

Internal and external information in one 3D dataset. Inspect hidden structures, cavities, wall thicknesses, interfaces and internal defects without destructive sectioning.
The Inspection Challenge

Some of the most important features are hidden inside the part.

Large and complex components can contain internal geometry that cannot be fully evaluated from the outside. CT provides a way to investigate these structures without dismantling or destroying the component.

01

Internal Features

Channels, cavities, bores and enclosed structures may have no practical access point for conventional tactile inspection.

02

Complex Assemblies

Dismantling an assembly can change component relationships or make it impossible to understand how parts interact in their assembled state.

03

Destructive Inspection

Sectioning a component can reveal internal structures, but destroys the original part and limits what can be investigated afterwards.

Large & Complex Components

Inspect the geometry you cannot reach from the outside.

Large housings, castings, assemblies and complex industrial components can contain critical features that are difficult to access with conventional probes or optical systems.

Industrial CT creates a volumetric representation of the component, allowing engineers to investigate internal structures while preserving the original part.

  • Large cast and machined components
  • Complex housings and enclosures
  • Multi-component assemblies
  • Internal channels and cavities
  • Difficult-to-access internal features
CT Inspection Capabilities

One volumetric scan can answer multiple inspection questions.

METROTOM 1500 supports inspection workflows where internal geometry, defects and dimensional characteristics need to be evaluated together.

CT

Volumetric Inspection

Reconstruct the complete component volume to investigate internal and external geometry within a single dataset.

DIM

Dimensional Measurement

Evaluate dimensions and geometric characteristics, including features that are difficult to access using conventional measurement.

DEF

Defect Detection

Visualise internal voids, inclusions, porosity and other volumetric characteristics within manufactured components.

WT

Wall Thickness

Investigate material thickness throughout internal structures and difficult-to-reach regions.

ASM

Assembly Inspection

Examine relationships between assembled components without requiring the complete assembly to be dismantled.

NDT

Non-Destructive Testing

Investigate internal structures while keeping the original component intact for further evaluation.

Applications

Industrial CT for complex components and assemblies.

The METROTOM 1500 can support inspection requirements across industries where component size, internal geometry or assembly complexity makes conventional inspection difficult.

Aerospace

Aerospace Components

Inspect complex aerospace components, castings and assemblies for internal geometry, cooling channels, wall thickness and manufacturing defects.

Automotive

Castings & Housings

Investigate castings, housings and complex automotive components for porosity, internal channels and dimensional characteristics.

Electronics

Electronic Assemblies

Examine internal connections, interfaces, housings and enclosed structures without dismantling the assembly.

Medical

Medical Components

Inspect internal structures and dimensional characteristics of complex medical components and assemblies without destructive sectioning.

What CT Can Reveal

From internal defects to dimensional relationships.

The value of CT is not limited to simply seeing inside a component. The resulting volumetric dataset can support different inspection and analysis requirements.

Internal Geometry Inspect cavities, channels, bores and enclosed structures that are difficult or impossible to reach conventionally.
Defect & Porosity Identify and evaluate internal voids, porosity and other volumetric anomalies within manufactured parts.
Wall Thickness Investigate material thickness throughout complex components and internal structures.
Dimensional CT Compare reconstructed geometry with nominal dimensions and CAD data where applicable.
Assembly Inspection Examine internal relationships between components without dismantling the complete assembly.
Non-Destructive Inspection Investigate the internal condition of the component while keeping the physical part intact.
Internal Inspection

Measure what conventional surface inspection cannot reach.

Internal channels, cavities, interfaces and wall structures can be among the most difficult features to inspect. CT makes these structures visible within the reconstructed volume.

This is particularly useful when cutting, sectioning or dismantling the component would destroy the information needed for the inspection.

01

Internal Channels

Investigate enclosed channels and passages without physically opening the component.

02

Hidden Defects

Reveal internal voids, porosity and other volumetric characteristics.

03

Internal Dimensions

Evaluate dimensions and wall structures that conventional probes cannot easily access.
