Press Release Summary:
High-Power Target consists of interaction layer made of tungsten and backing layer that provides heat transfer and lower focal spot temperature. Construction allows users to operate X-ray tube with high energies at highest possible resolution, maximizing image contrast. Unit is suited for inspection of objects with low-contrast structures, or objects with high absorption structures.

New High-Power X-ray Target from FEINFOCUS
STAMFORD, CONNECTICUT - The latest High-Power Target from FEINFOCUS is a transmission target consisting of two layers: an interaction layer made of tungsten and a special backing layer that provides improved heat transfer and lower focal spot temperature.
The construction of the FEINFOCUS high-power target allows users to operate the X-ray tube with higher energies at the highest possible resolution, allowing for increased image contrast. The new target is ideal for the inspection of objects with low-contrast structures, or objects with particularly high absorption structures.
As a rule, the thermal stress applied to the target increases with decreasing focal spot size and increasing tube power. Focal spot size, however, is a critical factor in determining geometric magnification and image resolution, while tube power influences the X-ray intensity output.
FEINFOCUS, a COMET company, is a leading global supplier of award-winning high-resolution X-ray inspection systems. The combined resources of COMET and FEINFOCUS provide the most complete offering of X-ray technology and products in the world. FEINFOCUS offers full radiation-shielded X-ray systems and X-ray sources, as well as complete in-house X-ray services, such as failure analysis, component defect detection, technical support, and preventative maintenance for both FEINFOCUS and third-party systems. As pioneers of microfocus and nanofocus X-ray inspection technology, the company developed the first patented "open" X-ray tube in 1982, and remains an industry leader in non-destructive testing for electronics, semiconductor, and related industries.
FEINFOCUS is headquartered in Garbsen, Germany. In the Americas, the company maintains sales, service, and applications labs in Stamford, CT and San Jose, CA. In Asia, the company's sales and service office is located in Shanghai, China.
