Liquid-metal bearing CT X-ray tube

ZS502L/H580A

Compatible models are Emotion 6/16 and SCOPE POWER16.

 

Liquid-metal bearing technology enhances the competitiveness of CT X-ray tubes in the mid- to high-end market.
The ZS502L/H580A incorporates SMARTBEAM’s proprietary liquid-metal bearing technology, whose superior thermal performance enables continuous scanning.
The CT tube, equipped with SMARTBEAM liquid-metal bearing technology, helps ensure stable performance during high‑load scanning and complex imaging sequences, thereby delivering high scan throughput and enhancing diagnostic accuracy.
SMARTBEAM’s liquid-metal bearing system integrates deeply with reliability engineering, encompassing multidisciplinary cross‑disciplinary collaboration and multi‑component integration.

 


Key Advantages
Continuous scanning offers higher throughput.
- The 5.0 MHU CT tube delivers exceptional cooling performance and features high X-ray output and a high gantry rotation speed;
- Reduced CT tube overheating, 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 setup time compared to ball-bearing–type X-ray tubes.
- Reduces scan interruptions caused by arcing during CT tube operation, enabling a truly continuous workflow.


Improved reliability
- The liquid-metal bearing surface ensures high precision, stability, and reliability.
- Superior to mechanical ball bearings, with significantly improved performance.

 

Reduce the operating and maintenance costs of CT scanners.
- 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.
