Where is 3D World applied?
Life Sciences
Designed to meet the needs of biological imaging, 3D World helps researchers explore tissues, organs, and cellular structures in 2D, 3D, and 4D. Its segmentation, morphometric analysis, and visualization capabilities allow life scientists to uncover structural patterns, quantify features, and support discoveries in fields such as developmental biology, pathology, and biomedical engineering.
Material Sciences
3D World supports advanced materials research with tools for analyzing microstructures, porosity, grain boundaries, and composite behavior. Whether you're studying metals, polymers, ceramics, or foams, 3D World enables detailed visualization and quantification to drive innovation in material design, testing, and performance analysis.
Battery Manufacturing
Battery cells undergo testing against the highest quality assurance criteria in the automotive and other industries due to the importance of flawless long-term reliability. 3D World offers the tools for the inspection of battery cells based on X-ray images, for example for the automatic segmentation and measurement of the overhang between anode and cathode components.
Aerospace and Automotive
Structural integrity and precision are critical in automotive and aerospace manufacturing, where even minor defects can have serious consequences. 3D World enables high-resolution (X-ray) inspection of composite materials, turbine blades, and additively-manufactured components. With automated detection for defects such as cracks, porosity, and assembly issues, alongside advanced material analysis, it ensures compliance with strict quality standards.
Electronics
Finding cracks, open solder joints, delaminations, or voids in electronic components like semiconductor packages and surface-mounted technology (SMT) assemblies, is a task best performed with automated processes. 3D World provides the tools for error-free X-ray inspections without the need for human intervention.
Quality Assurance
From production lines to R&D labs, 3D World enhances quality assurance by enabling precise defect detection, material comparison, and dimensional analysis. Engineers can inspect internal structures, monitor consistency, and validate manufacturing processes using intuitive, automated workflows.
