Micro-CT, also known as 3D X-ray microscopy (3D XRM), is an advanced imaging technique that provides an in-depth 3D view of samples for biomedical, life and materials science. The modular hardware and user-centred software of the X4 POSEIDON can be tailored to any analytical task. Thanks to its flagship technology, the system is effective at balancing field-of-view, magnification, and speed – allowing lightning fast scan times with expansive coverage and resolving features as small as 2 μm.
The X4 POSEIDON is a compact bench top micro-CT system that brings the capabilities of a floor-standing 3D X-ray microscope into a space-efficient, user-friendly design. The housing reflects Bruker’s distinctive Corporate Product Design, characterised by clean lines, intuitive form language, and high functional integration. The front panel design ensures ease of access, supports fast sample exchange, and can be optionally upgraded with a multi-sample module for automated workflows.
All surfaces are optimised for easy cleaning and regular servicing, meeting laboratory hygiene and maintenance standards. The compact form fits on standard lab workbenches and requires only standard power, emphasising accessibility and minimal infrastructure. The overall design enables walk-up usability with a clear user interface and logical workflow layout. This design combines advanced technology with a modular, modern appearance—clearly distinguishing the X4 POSEIDON from conventional systems in its category.
