u-X360J – X-ray Residual Stress Analyzer

The μ-X360J is a portable residual stress analyzer that uses X-ray technology for non-destructive measurements. With a compact and lightweight design, this instrument offers high accuracy in residual stress analysis, width at half height (FWHM), and retained austenite (optional), making it ideal for industrial applications and field testing.

Material Measurements and Characterization

The u-X360J performs accurate measurements of residual stress and other structural parameters through X-ray diffraction analysis. The system allows for easy sample positioning and reduced measurement time, approximately 40 seconds for ferritic samples.

Main Applications

• Residual stress analysis in metal parts, gears, springs, and crankshafts.
• Weld bead evaluation, including HAZ and fusion zones.
• Heat treatment and plastic forming monitoring.
• Quality control in advanced manufacturing processes.
• Structural integrity verification of components and equipment.

Technical Resources and Differentiators

• Portability and lightness: sensor weighing only 3 kg and power supply weighing 5.1 kg.
