8.1 Unit technical specifications
8.1.1 General information
z X-ray beam: Fan Beam
z Reconstruction Algorithm: A real time reconstructing algorithm
z Dynamic Range: 14 bit
z Scan Time (sec) at normal: 9.7 sec (typical). (2~13.5 sec.)
z Rotating Unit Scan Angle (degree): 240
Actual rotating angle around the object
z X-ray Exposure Angle (degree): 220
Actual spanning angle to expose the object to X-Ray: In fact the instant that the rotating
unit turns by 10 degrees, the X-Ray exposure starts and stops at 10 degrees before the
rotating unit reaches the full rotation: 240-10-10=220
