Experience dynamic impact events with X-ray vision
See the inside of a collision. Get first-hand knowledge of the fundamentals in impact dynamics. Flash X-ray takes your scientific toolbox to the next level, so you can see inside objects during collisions.
Improve your failure analysis to reduce or prevent breaks during collisions
Are you ready to stop guessing how breaks occur when you can’t see them happening? Take your R&D to the next level and see inside objects during collisions.
See inside hypervelocity impacts with our SCF450S high-energy-level system
The 450S is ideal for research involving hypervelocity impact studies like space debris crashing into a satellite at 15 km/s – you can observe the first layer of protective covering vaporize.
See through centimeters of steel with our SCF450 high-energy-level system
Capable of penetrating materials equal to several centimeters of steel, SCF450 systems have been used to study mechanical fraction, shock waves and impact studies where images of the impactor inside a material are collected as a function of time.
See through centimeters of aluminum with our SCF300 medium-energy-level system
The 300 system is ideal for research involving both shadow imaging and penetrating materials like ceramics, aluminum or centimeters of steel.
See through smoke and fire with our SCF150 low-energy-level system
The 150 system is ideal for research involving both shadow imaging and penetrating soft materials like plastic or tissue as well as thin metal plates like aluminum and steel.
Take your dynamic events research to the next level with flash X-ray
From visual obstruction to fast moving objects, flash X-ray let’s you see the nearly impossible events that aren’t visible to the human eye.
Mobile flash X-Ray: Portability and fast results, anywhere!
A complete flash X-ray system in a 20-foot ISO container, ready to go: portable, fast, and flexible. Run your experiments anywhere and see your results faster than you can say “sex laxar I en laxask” (that’s an old Swedish tongue twister).
Increased orders and on-time deliveries continue as expected
Keep your research on schedule despite supply chain challenges. Scandiflash deliveries remain on schedule so you can run experiments on time.
Scandiflash 2.0: A refreshed identity and new website
Sometimes looking like the leader you are means rethinking and refreshing the way you present your company, products and services.
Behind helmet blunt trauma (BHBT) studied with X-ray cinematography
A study of 6,000 cases reveals that, even if 70% of injured patients were wearing bullet-proof helmets and other individual protective equipment, 50% was found to have suffered brain injuries.
Material impact studies of a ricochet phenomena
High-speed flash X-ray cinematography catpures ricochet phenomena at 820 m/s A bullet traveling 820 m/s impacts an inclined aramid composite plate. 6 X-ray images capture the event with a 50 microsecond time interval between them.A ricochet phenomena under ballistic...
How to set up high-speed flash X-ray cinematography
A schematic image of the setup showing the Multi Anode tube, sample (projectile and ballistic protection plate), scintillator screen, mirror and high speed camera.With the right setup, high-speed flash X-ray cinematography can be used to investigate ballistic impact...
How fast X-ray pulses capture dynamic events
If you want to capture dynamic events that are happening super fast and can’t be seen by the human eye, then you’re going to need really fast pulses of X-rays.
The discovery of X-rays
Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen first discovered X-rays in 1895 when he found that, if he worked in a dark room with a discharge tube that was enclosed in a sealed, thick black carton to exclude all light, a paper plate covered on one side with barium platinocyanide placed in the path of the rays became florescent.
