  • Detection Technology introduces IGZO X-ray detectors for faster battery inspection.
  • New IGZO detectors enhance imaging speed, precision, and throughput in battery production.
  • Solutions offer high-resolution imaging, detecting defects in automotive and energy storage batteries.

Detection Technology has broadened its range of X-ray flat panel detectors by introducing high-speed IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide)-based detectors.

These new additions, available in 1313, 3030, and 4343 panel sizes, aim to meet the growing demand for rapid, precise imaging in the battery manufacturing sector. The enhanced IGZO detectors are designed to deliver improved performance, complementing the company's established a-Si (Amorphous Silicon) solutions.

Meeting Industry Demands

The latest IGZO-based detectors are optimized for inspecting batteries and are already being supplied to manufacturers of electric vehicle (EV) batteries. These detectors are particularly suited for high-volume production environments, enhancing imaging speed and precision to ensure quality control.

The latest IGZO-based detectors are optimized for inspecting batteries

X-ray flat panel detectors are vital in inspecting battery cells and packs, enabling the detection of defects like air pockets, cracks, and foreign objects. These features are crucial for maintaining the structural integrity required in automotive and energy storage applications. Detection Technology's X-Panel lineup offers a variety of panel sizes, all engineered for challenging production settings, delivering large-area imaging, high resolution, low noise levels, and pixel uniformity. The panels are adaptable to inline, at-line, and offline inspection systems for diverse battery types, such as cylindrical, pouch, button, and power winding applications.

X-ray Imaging Solutions

"With our IGZO and a-Si detector technologies, we aim to provide manufacturers with application-optimized and scalable solutions for battery inspection," said Wei Chunlin, Sales Director at Detection Technology. "Our flat panel detectors are trusted for high and reliable imaging performance, imaging speed, and competitive cost, supported by our 24/7 customer service."

Tuomas Holma, Product Director at Detection Technology, further emphasized, "Our solutions enable early detection of even the smallest internal defects while maintaining inspection accuracy at high production speeds. They support non-destructive inspection across key quality control applications, including overhang wrapping alignment, pole piece wrinkling, lithium plating, air bubbles, welding defects, and foreign object detection."

Upcoming Exhibition

Detection Technology is set to display its battery inspection solutions at the China International Battery Fair (CIBF) in Shenzhen, China, from May 13-15, 2026. Attendees will find Detection Technology at Hall 3, Stand 3T089, where they can explore the company's latest X-ray imaging solutions for battery manufacturing.
