What if your line operator could see inside every part — without cutting, without a lab, without waiting?
For most manufacturers, CT tomography has always been something that happens elsewhere. A specialist runs it. Results arrive hours later. The production line waits.
COREX ONE changes the premise entirely.
Developed by Ready Metrology, COREX ONE is a self-shielded industrial CT system built from the ground up for production environments. No bunker. No dedicated room. No special training required. It installs directly on the shop floor — and any operator can run it by pressing a single button.
COREX ONE is loaded from above — a deliberate design choice that reduces the machine’s ground footprint and simplifies daily operations. Its self-shielded enclosure means it can be positioned directly beside the line without any additional infrastructure.
At its core sits a rotating anode X-ray source rated at 2,400 W, delivering the power typically found only in laboratory-grade systems — while keeping cycle times to approximately 40 seconds for most industrial components. Dense materials like aluminum, magnesium, and titanium take 40 to 50 seconds. Lighter materials — rubber, plastic, carbon fiber — scan in 20 to 30 seconds.
The result is a machine that delivers laboratory-quality inspection at production speed.
Powerful hardware means little if operators can’t use it confidently.
The breakthrough in COREX ONE is its Falcon software interface, which reduces the complexity of 3D tomographic inspection to something as familiar and immediate as a profile projector.
During programming, the metrologist defines origins and references directly on the acquired 3D volume or on an STL file — planes, cylinders, datums that correspond to meaningful features of the production process. Virtual cut planes are created on these references. Dimensions and tolerances are assigned once.
From that point on, the line operator sees results on screen exactly as they would on a profile projector: a 2D section view, every configured dimension displayed simultaneously, and a traffic light indicator (green/yellow/red) that eliminates any ambiguity about part conformance. No metrology background needed. No interpretation required.
There is also a histogram view showing where each measured dimension sits within its tolerance band — and a trend display that reveals whether a given feature is drifting over time. This allows operators to correct the process before scrap is generated, not after.
At a glance, any team member can see:
Reports are generated instantly and are ready to print — useful for shift setup documentation, batch changeover certification, and customer quality records.
COREX ONE is designed for manufacturers who produce complex parts and need fast, reliable, non-destructive inspection at the point of production.
Plastic injection and die-casting manufacturers use it to check for internal porosity, cavities, and blowouts that could compromise seal integrity or mechanical resistance — defects that are invisible from the outside and impossible to find without cutting. With COREX ONE, defect detection is automatic: discrimination by size, volumetric visualization, no subjectivity.
Extruded profiles and gaskets — aluminum, rubber, plastics — can be placed directly into the machine. The section appears on screen with all configured dimensions, eliminating the sample preparation that traditional profile projection requires.
High-mix, frequent-changeover lines use COREX ONE as a setup validation tool: a quick scan at the start of each shift, or after a format change, confirms that critical dimensions are in range before the line runs at full speed.

COREX ONE is not a replacement for laboratory CT. It is a complementary tool that moves quality inspection from the lab to the line — making it faster, more frequent, and accessible to the people who actually run production.
The 14th European Conference on Non-Destructive Testing (ECNDT 2026) takes place in Verona, Italy, from June 15 to 19, 2026 — and Ready Metrology will be there presenting COREX ONE with the new Falcon software in world premiere.
ECNDT is the flagship event of the European Federation for Non-Destructive Testing (EFNDT) and the most authoritative gathering of NDT professionals, researchers, and industry leaders on the continent. It brings together thousands of experts across inspection, quality control, and materials science — representing the full spectrum of non-destructive testing methods, from ultrasound and radiography to industrial computed tomography.
For a product like COREX ONE — which sits precisely at the intersection of industrial CT innovation and real-world manufacturing quality — ECNDT 2026 is the natural stage. The conference is where the NDT community defines where the technology is going. It is where innovations are benchmarked against the most demanding professional standards and tested against the broadest possible audience of domain experts.
Presenting COREX ONE at ECNDT 2026 is a statement: that shop-floor CT has reached a level of maturity, precision, and accessibility that belongs in the same conversation as laboratory-grade inspection — and that the future of non-destructive testing is not confined to specialist environments, but available to every manufacturer who needs it.
