Liquid-metal bearing technology enhances the competitiveness of CT X-ray tubes in the high-end market.
The ZS712L/H485B incorporates SMARTBEAM’s proprietary liquid-metal bearing technology, whose superior heat dissipation enables continuous scanning.
The CT tube, equipped with SMARTBEAM liquid-metal bearing technology, helps ensure stable performance during high‑load scanning and complex imaging protocols, thereby delivering high scan throughput and enhancing diagnostic accuracy.
The CT tube’s exceptionally long service life helps reduce equipment downtime, lower replacement frequency, and optimize energy consumption, thereby effectively lowering the hospital’s long-term operating costs.
SMARTBEAM’s liquid-metal bearing technology delivers a win-win outcome, enhancing both economic efficiency and value.

 


Key Advantages
Higher continuous scanning throughput
- The 7.1 MHU high-capacity CT tube delivers exceptional cooling performance and features high X-ray output and a rapid gantry rotation speed.
- Reduced overheating of the CT tube, eliminating the need to wait between repeated scans.


Faster execution process
- All CT tube models have undergone comprehensive testing and validation, ensuring perfect compatibility and high integration.
- The anode rotates continuously, reducing preparation time compared to ball-bearing tube designs.
- Reduces scan interruptions caused by arcing during CT tube operation, enabling a truly continuous workflow.


Liquid metal potting technology empowers
- After undergoing multiple processing steps, liquid-metal potting is achieved, ensuring zero wear between the CT tube housing and the rotor, low noise, and zero contact within the bearings, thereby extending service life.
