North Star Imaging's Digital X-ray Systems With robotiX®
Robotic capabilities for x-ray inspection of large parts
Automatic loading and unloading of large parts for digital X-ray inspection is now available on the larger Computed Tomography systems manufactured by North Star Imaging (NSI). NSI's robotiX: https://4nsi.com/innovations/robotix.
Larger parts, such as automotive carburetors and airplane blades, can easily be loaded, scanned, and unloaded into the NSI X-ray system using a simple interface that allows users to create robotic control programs. These programs allow for reusable safe zone sub-routines that speed up the programming process to ensure that your NSI X-ray or CT system is up and running quickly when programming new parts for loading/unloading.
Adding robotiX to your NSI system reduces cycle time, increases productivity and allows for more efficient use of your X-ray equipment.
North Star Imaging, an ITW company, manufactures, sells and services state-of-the-art X-ray Imaging systems and Computed Tomography equipment for industrial use, and designs and develops software applications for its systems.

The piCOBOT Electric vacuum generator
Fully electric, slim design and absence of air-tubing and cabling. The new piCOBOT® Electric heads towards another success for Piab's piCOBOT® program. A secondary effect of these achievements is the absence of entangling air tubing and cabling. It simplifies the installation, and as the new piCOBOT® Electric only needs a single connection on the cobot arm, the clean set-up allows a completely unrestricted movement. The new piCOBOT® Electric package will contain plug & play software to fit UR e-series cobots, but many other useful adaptations will be introduced in the coming year
