Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is diOptiScan?

diOptiScan is an online tool that automates CT scan setup: it computes the optimal part pose from your CAD geometry and provides a matching digital fixture (3D-print file or a specification for a reconfigurable kit).

2. Who is it for?

CT operators, QA/inspection teams, and R&D groups working with complex parts, ROI scans, or tight throughput/quality demands.

3. How does it work (in short)?

An in-house, high-performance GPU ray-tracer converts your CAD surface meshes into path-length projections and systematically explores the full pose space. Multiple metrics are balanced to select a robust optimum that reduces penetration lengths and cone-beam artefacts while maximising projection consistency and achievable magnification.

4. What scan modes are supported?

In addition to standard cone-beam setups, diOptiScan supports horizontal/vertical field-of-view extensions (including multiples), limited-angle, and helical trajectories.

5. What do I get as output?

  • The recommended pose and geometry parameters (e.g., magnification, focus-detector distance), considering collision risks.
  • A digital fixture: 3D-printable design or a reconfigurable-kit assembly specification.
  • Visuals/plots (e.g., pose-space maps, path-length histograms) to support feasibility checks.

6. Does it work with my CT system?

Yes. Results are applicable to all industrial CT systems, regardless of supplier.
