Digital Microscope. An Inexpensive X-ray Machine. The following is taken in full from Section IX. Optics, Heat, and Electronics; Chapter 3. An Inexpensive X-ray Machine Library of Congress Card Catalog Number: 60-14286 © Copyright 1960 by C. Harry Simons of 118 Windsor Street, Kearny, N.J., is a lonely amateur scientist. As a lure Simons offers the collection of radiographs reproduced in Figures 225, 226, 227 and 228. 225 Simon's radiograph of two screws imbedded in an inch-thick block of wood 226 Radiograph of the plug from an electric flatiron 227 bones of fish revealed by homemade X-ray machine 228 Effectiveness of Simon's X-ray machine in penetrating the steel leaves of a thickness ranging from .002 to .010 of an inch thick During a rainy weekend back in 1933 Simons was fiddling with an Oudin coil.

“My original Oudin coil,” Simons recalls, “was part of an ultraviolet lamp with which I tested mineral specimens for fluorescence. Why has Simons's hobby failed to catch on? Moreover, X-rays have earned a bad reputation as playthings. TR_0703. Handheld XRF Spectrometer, X-ray Fluorescence Analyzers, PMI Gun, Scrap Sorting Gun, PXRF. Bookeye 4. Bookeye 4 - developed particularly with the self-service application market in mind With the latest member of the Bookeye family, Image Access placed an emphasis on developing a scanner which is compact, easy to operate and competitively priced; to bring high end professional scanning to an even larger population of users.

bookeye 4

The efficient Bookeye 4 digitizes source material such as bound documents at high speeds in up to 600 dpi optical resolution and formats up to DIN A2. Over 17 years of electronic, optical and mechanical engineering experience went into the creation and manufacture of the Bookeye 4. The clever mirror mechanism captures the document precisely from edge to edge, whether it is a flat document or a book open at an angle of 120 degrees. The V-shaped book cradle was optimized to reduce the risk of damage to book spines and binding during digitization. Book scanning made easy Bookeye 4 has all the advantages of a more expensive standalone device. Applications More Features. Bookeye4. EPIC Pro Panoramic Head. Capture phenomenal depth and clarity in multi-gigapixel panoramas with the remarkable EPIC Pro.

EPIC Pro Panoramic Head

Based on technology developed by NASA for the Mars Rover, the EPIC Pro is strong enough to hold a camera and lens combination up to 10 lbs (4.5 kgs). EPIC Pro can accurately take hundreds or even thousands of individual photos to create one stunningly detailed gigapan. With the new GigaPan Stitch software, these photos are efficiently combined into a seamless panorama that can be easily uploaded to GigaPan.com, where you can view, share, embed, tag, and print your images.

An ORDbot Quantum 3D printer. 3D printing or additive manufacturing[1] is a process of making a three-dimensional solid object of virtually any shape from a digital model. 3D printing is achieved using an additive process, where successive layers of material are laid down in different shapes.[2] 3D printing is also considered distinct from traditional machining techniques, which mostly rely on the removal of material by methods such as cutting or drilling (subtractive processes).

3D printing

A 3D printer is a limited type of industrial robot that is capable of carrying out an additive process under computer control. The 3D printing technology is used for both prototyping and distributed manufacturing with applications in architecture, construction (AEC), industrial design, automotive, aerospace, military, engineering, dental and medical industries, biotech (human tissue replacement), fashion, footwear, jewelry, eyewear, education, geographic information systems, food, and many other fields.
