Case Study of Observing Syringes with an inspeXioTM SMXTM-225 CT FPD HR Plus System

User Benefits

- Non-destructive and easy inspection of fit between parts in product assemblies and inclusions inside sealing materials. - Analysis of product wall thickness and visualization with 3D imaging.

Introduction

Syringes are medical devices used to inject drugs into the human body. Because such devices are used for the human body, their safety and reliability are crucial. If a gap or irregularity in the product allows foreign material or air bubbles to get into the drug, it could result in a medical accident. Therefore, it is important to thoroughly inspect the fit between parts in the product assembly and the interior of sealing materials. In addition, since medical devices require reliability, It is also important to reduce any variability in product quality. Because X-ray CT systems can non-destructively visualize the interior of objects in three dimensions , they are ideal for observing the fit between parts in products and analyzing inclusions. This article describes a case study of analyzing the component parts and assembly status of a syringe with a inspeXio SMX- 225CT FPD HR Plus microfocus X-ray CT system.
