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. NSI has a standard range of 7 extremely flexible products to meet varied requirements. Other services include need-based X-ray/CT scanning and consulting and Technical Service & Support. NSI's corporate office is in Minnesota (USA) with added sites in California, Massachusetts, Paris, London and Suzhou (China). NSI is an ISO 9001:2015 certified company. https://4nsi.com/

IP Seals for Robots

Freudenberg Sealing Technologies' IPRS (Ingress Protection Seals for Robots) provides reliable protection for robotic systems operating in harsh environments. Designed to prevent dust, moisture, chemicals, and wear from compromising performance, IPRS extends service life and reduces maintenance. The adaptive Z-shaped geometry ensures sealing integrity under continuous motion, making it ideal for high-speed automation and outdoor applications. Manufactured with high-performance elastomers such as Fluoroprene XP and EPDM, IPRS offers exceptional resistance to lubricants, cleaning agents, and extreme temperatures. This makes it the perfect solution for six-axis robots, SCARA robots, AMRs, AGVs, and cobots. With its low-friction design and durable materials, IPRS enhances energy efficiency and operational reliability in industrial and autonomous robotics. Learn more about our IPRS Seals
