X7500 | NSI | Inspection Services Group

Standalone Manipulator

The X7500 is the standalone manipulator from North Star Imaging’s largest standard system, the X7000. The optional independent horizontal (x-axis) travel of the tube and detector allow for unparalleled inspection capabilities of an elongated object. The system is great for composites, castings, pipes, tubes, welds and similar parts.
