Tescan UniTOM^®HR for Materials Science

The UniTOM® HR is the only micro-CT system that combines sub-micron spatial resolution with high temporal resolution dynamic CT in a single instrument. It delivers flexibility for researchers who need to examine the smallest structural features in large samples while also capturing fast, dynamic processes.

Sub-micron resolution down to 600 nm for detailed structural analysis

Accommodates samples up to 500 mm in diameter and 700 mm in height

High temporal resolution dynamic CT with scans as fast as 5 seconds per rotation

Multiscale imaging workflows for seamless navigation from overview to detail

HOW Tescan UniTOM® HR SUPPORTS YOUR materials science research

Sub-micron imaging

Resolve features down to 600 nm to study fine structural details inside large samples.

Multiscale workflows

Move from full sample overview scans to high-resolution regions of interest seamlessly.

Dynamic CT

Capture material changes in real time with continuous rotation and scans as fast as 5 seconds per rotation.

In situ studies

Monitor crack propagation, deformation, or fluid transport while applying mechanical or environmental stimuli.

Large sample support

Accommodates samples up to 700 mm tall, 500 mm in diameter, and weighing up to 45 kg.

User-friendly operation

Automated alignment, recipe-driven workflows, and intuitive navigation reduce training time and ensure reproducibility.

IN MATERIALS SCIENCE

Composite research

Characterize large composite parts and zoom in to reveal the 3D pore and fiber structure. Multiscale CT allows researchers to relate individual defects to the structural integrity of fiber-reinforced components, providing more accurate models of mechanical performance.

Additive manufacturing

Examine internal structures and defects inside 3D printed parts. High-resolution micro-CT reveals pores, cracks, and inclusions at sub-micron resolutions, enabling better assessment of part reliability and manufacturing quality.

Building materials

Non-destructive 3D characterization of concrete, ceramics, and wood. UniTOM HR captures porosity, cracks, and phase distribution with precision, supporting durability assessment and advanced construction materials research.

In situ imaging

Visualize material behavior in real time. Dynamic micro-CT combined with in situ stages shows how materials form, deform, and fail—for example, the compression of lightweight metal foams or fracture progression in polymers.

PANTHERA™ Software
