New Digital X-Ray Camera Series delivers performance and speed with a reliable GigE or Camera Link interface.
WATERLOO, Ontario – Teledyne DALSA, a Teledyne Technologies company and global leader in digital X-Ray image sensors, today introduced the first in its new Rad-icon series of CMOS X-Ray cameras.
The Rad-icon 1520 detector features 1548 x 2064 pixel resolution, an active area of 15.3 x 20.4 cm, and 99 micron pixel size. Rad-icon detectors deliver real-time frame rates of up to 30 fps, high sensitivity, and superb

The detectors offer a unique combination of higher resolution and fast imaging suitable for industrial x-ray inspection, scientific imaging, and non-destructive testing, including weld inspection, wire bond and printed circuit board (PCB) inspection, microfocus, computed tomography (CT) and other demanding industrial imaging applications.
“The Rad-icon digital x-ray cameras deliver a unique combination of speed, resolution and connectivity,” commented Thorsten Achterkirchen, Vice-President, X-Ray Imaging for Teledyne DALSA, “The 1520 is only the beginning of what we are promoting as a cost-effective and flexible platform for high performance digital x-ray imaging for non-destructive testing.”
Rad-icon digital x-ray cameras leverage Teledyne DALSA’s advanced CMOS image sensing technology that enables the delivery of higher image quality than a-Si flat panels and image intensifier devices.
Other features include:
• 5 lp/mm resolution
• Energy range from 10 to 225 kV
• 14-bit digitization of images
• SDKs, drivers and programming support
