01 / OVERVIEW

Find, verify, and communicate pores in one focused workflow

VXPI analyzes CT volumes for gas pores and presents each finding with measurable properties. Users can review the result on MPR and 3D views, correct the detected set when needed, and prepare a report for quality, process, or engineering discussions

01

Detect pores efficiently

Apply focused detection settings to large CT volumes with GPU-assisted processing

02

Review every finding

Locate pore results on coordinated MPR and 3D views before accepting the analysis

03

Report measurable results

Summarize pore size, position, shape, and other metrics for downstream decisions

02 / CORE CAPABILITIES

Built around the work, not just the image

Each capability supports a clear inspection task, with the image and the decision kept in the same workflow

DETECTION SETTINGS / PREVIEW BEFORE CALCULATION
01

DETECTION

Focus the analysis on the pore range that matters

Detection parameters and preview tools let users tune the analysis to the material, voxel size, and inspection goal before calculating the full result

  • High-speed pore detection
  • Detection preview and threshold control
  • Configurable pore-size range
  • GPU-based parallel processing

REPORTING

Give every pore a location, size, and shape

The porosity report turns detected features into a searchable list and connects the selected result to its position on the MPR view

  • Pore volume and surface area
  • Voxel count and maximum diameter
  • Roundness and location information
  • Filtering and Excel-compatible report output

REVIEW & EDITING

Keep the analyst in control of the final result

Users can add or remove pore findings in the region of interest and use size-based color mapping to see how results are distributed throughout the part

  • Add and remove pores on the MPR panel
  • Color mapping by pore size
  • 3D distribution overview
  • Visual confirmation before reporting

03 / WORKFLOW

A shorter path from CT volume to porosity report

The workflow keeps automated detection and engineering judgment together, giving the analyst clear checkpoints before the result is shared

  1. 01

    Prepare

    Open the CT volume in VX3D and define the inspection region

  2. 02

    Detect

    Set the detection range, preview the result, and run the analysis

  3. 03

    Verify

    Review pore locations and edit the result set when appropriate

  4. 04

    Report

    Filter the metrics and export a result for quality or process review

04 / FUNCTION SET
