X7500 | NSI | Inspection Services Group

Standalone Manipulator

The X7500 is the standalone manipulator from North Star Imaging’s largest standard system, the X7000. The large scanning envelope and generous focal distance allow for unparalleled inspection capabilities of very large objects. The system is great for composites, castings, pipes, tubes, welds and similar parts.
