the world of X-ray tube assemblies and X-ray tubes
In our product range, you will find X-ray tube assemblies and X-ray tubes that impress with precise construction and manufacturing, offering versatile applications in the fields of medicine, industry and research.
up to 80 kV
Our range includes a variety of combinations of X-ray tubes in the radiation protection housing, which in turn can have different exit angles, cooling methods, mounting options, and operating voltages (up to 80 kV).
up to 80 kV
The cathode system of this type of X-ray tubes is finely tuned, resulting in highly stable operation. In our product range, we offer technical X-ray tubes with glass windows up to 80 kV and with Beryllium windows up to 60 kV.
up to 70 kV
The structure is similar to a classic X-ray tube, which is typically operated in pulse mode. This allows for higher power output. We manufacture dental X-ray tubes with a voltage of up to 70 kV and focal spots ranging from 0.3 – 0.8 IEC.
up to 30 kV
All our X-ray tubes with a Beryllium window can be encapsulated with a special rubber-like potting compound. There are numerous combinations possible between focal spot size, anode angle, anode material and X-ray exit window.
from A to Z
We also offer our X-ray tubes as complete packages with pre-assembled high-voltage and heating cables, as well as a high-voltage power supply. These are customized and ready for immediate use.

FAQ
Thank you very much for your interest in our products. Do you have a question? You can find the answer in our list of FAQ.
What should be considered before commissioning X-ray tubes and X-ray tube assemblies?
The power supply used must have a control circuit with filament current limitation.
According to the manufacturer’s specifications, this must be adjusted (e.g., data sheet) to prevent overheating of the filament when switching on (please refer to our application notes regarding lifetime).
The X-ray tube assembly must be stored at room temperature for at least 48 hours before commissioning.
We recommend a warm-up before initial operation, see application guidelines.
What is the length of an X-ray tubes/X-ray tube assemblies life time?
The lifetime depends on the operating conditions and operational parameters. Please refer to our application guidelines for further information.
The warranty period is 12 months, as stated in the terms and conditions.
Is the focal spot adjustable through grid control?
The focal spot declared on our final test data sheet match the actual focal spot of the X-ray tube in standard operation.
The grid control can be used for ‘closing’ or ‘pulsing’ the X-ray tube, please refer to our application guidelines for details.
Are there special procedures for transportation? What should be considered?
The packaging must be designed in a way that the goods are not subjected to impacts. If you receive the package through a carrier, it should be inspected immediately for any external damages.
For international shipments, the package may be opened by customs; upon receipt, the goods should be promptly checked for any damage.
Can damage to an X-ray tube in the radiation protection housing be detected?
See our application notes respective X-ray tube assembly rapid test.
Is it possible to replace the X-ray tube in the radiation protection housing or repair the X-ray tube assembly?
Replacement of the X-ray tube is only possible at our facility.
The components are not user-repairable.
The warranty claim is void if disassembly or loosening of fasteners is done by the user.
Are there regulations for the disposal of X-ray tubes and assembly?
The waste oil is to be disposed of in a proper manner.
The Be-windows are also to be turned over to a processing plant.
We offer a proper disposal within our facility.
