This is incredible. As someone who's bought probably half a dozen nice x-ray machines at the scrap yard over the past few years... This is such a very nice project and you made it into something truly useful. What all we nerds dream of doing with an x-ray machine in our electronics lab.
Wouldn't happen to have a spare tube lying around would you? It's the last part I need for my machine 😅 Actually what kind of scrapyard do you even look for this stuff in anyway? Hopefully there's some local one in Australia here
I have a similar setup but I have to use film currently, I couldn't find one of the sensor plates you did without it being thousands of dollars. May I ask where found that? Also what tube do you have? I have a Canon D-045
What's the xray tube you're using? I've gone through the comments and your element14 post, but I have yet to find what specific tube this uses, or the specifications of the tube. It's a good tube, powerful enough to produce crisp shadows on the sensor, which is ideal and what a lot of lower-powered tubes cannot do.
Tube not very good, it is only 39keV at the moment. I would love to get my hands on hamamatsu microfocus tube capable 120-150keV ar 200w power. This would be extraordinary good
Very nice. You could add a Z table for a zoom function and to push small items really close to the source for super zoom. This would be great for checking sausages for bits of bone too. Were the specialised components pricey? ie the sensor and transmitter.
One of those hamamatsu sensors is selling on ebay for 6.5k euro (a lower resolution model iirc). He says he got a good deal though for the one he has. You can get axial ones for 1000 apparently, but I don't know how that would work with this type of compact use, since you'd need a good resolution and to rotate the subject along an axis parallel to the sensor I presume (at that point it'd only be good for CAT). X-ray tubes are comparatively not very expensive, around 100-300eur for most. Although I don't know about one with the same energy he is using. He says in his article a good target is Mo and a good energy is 17 keV
DAMN SON! Seriously amazing. Woulld have been absolutely mind blowing if you'd RE the firmware or at least shown the TTL and wrote your own software for the thingy... Possible but extremely difficult.
nice results.. i have some old working x-ray equipment a may upgrade the software and camera for a higher resolution image. thanks for the great video.
That's a grate project! I might do something similar. what kind of x-ray generator are you using? and does the sensor plugs to a pc, and what software are you using.

Yes, electronics does have support for twi stepper motors. One is for height, and the other is for rotation. Look up my my channel. Where are some videos captured on rotation axis
Hi, Nice job! Congrats.! I would like to do same project to test iron casting parts. To check internal structure about defects and voids. Do you think that tube have power enought to penetrate iron castings? Could be good and very helpful if you could do a video, testing some iron parts or even some nickel coins to see the behaviour of machine. Thank you!
This video inspired me to work on building my own PCB xray inspection cabinet several months ago. I've had a lot of issues but am nearing the end, I'm wondering what panel you use though? I've gotten 2 samsung llx240ab01 but don't have any of the software or cables. I can mock up cables just fine but it's that software I'm struggling with now.
Try to get hamamastu panel. It has sdk with examples how to use it. It will be hard to do in other panels, specially big TFT tipe ones, you need special programs and no SDK.....
Hi Linas K, you have comments turned off on your elegoo saturn fix and I have a question about it. Many people are reporting that they solved the problem of restarting by replacing the power supply. Did your chassis ground solution remain effective? I am having this issue now after years of use, so it's hard to believe that I am suddenly getting static build up after all this time. It has never changed location and it's in a temperature controlled room. I have ordered a new power supply, but maybe I will take the time to ground the chassis as well.
As stated in that video, unscrewing top made it non functional due to restart. It help alot having true ground ( must be in the socket) Good power supply could have proper ground to zero connection
@@Kilohercas Well my new power supply didn't fix it. So I grounded the chassis to the USB board. Actually found a ground pin on that board and used a female connector to connect to the pin. I felt I would have had to completely remove that board to solder to usb ground which was a tight fit to the base and didn't think my soldering tip could fit in there. Then I ran that wire to the chassis, scraped away the paint and soldered it right to the chassis. Printer is working again, thanks for the video. Really odd how this just started happening after years of printing without this issue one time!
Well, i study quantum electronics, but now working as electronics desiner. It is nice to understand physics, have programming and hardware development skils, it allows to do so many things :)
How much did the hamamatsu sensor cost? I want to make an XRay machine but trying to search for the price online yields no results , only "Contact us". Doubt this is anything under 2000$ lol. Really nice build
@@Kilohercas thank you for replying. Actually I need the scanner to develop a product for my customer. It would be better if I could get it more cheaper. Is there any way to contact you? Could not find any email or Instagram.
