Webinar: How manufacturers use CT to detect hidden defects faster
See risk before it becomes cost. How industrial X-ray CT is reshaping automotive quality, validation and launch readiness.

In automotive manufacturing, the biggest costs often come from what you don’t see in time. Part failures, delays, warranty exposure and damaged brand trust all trace back to hidden quality risks discovered too late in the process.
Vehicles are getting more complex, tolerances tighter, and timelines shorter - while expectations for safety, reliability and traceability continue to rise. Traditional inspection methods alone can’t always keep pace, especially when critical features are buried inside parts.
Industrial X-ray computed tomography (CT) is the solution.
CT gives engineering and quality teams non-destructive, 3D visibility inside castings, electronics and assemblies, complementing traditional methods. By replacing destructive sectioning, CT delivers quicker feedback, earlier decisions and real ROI - with up to 8x faster and immediate savings in time and outsourcing costs.
This webinar explains how CT works and shows how automotive teams are applying it today to reduce risk, accelerate validation and improve launch outcomes across the vehicle lifecycle.
What you'll learn:
- What industrial CT is, how it works, and why it complements existing methods.
- How to apply CT to high-impact tasks.
- How engineers verify electronics and sensors non-destructively.
- Practical adoption paths, and how the range of CT hardware and software available support everything from in-house R&D and failure analysis to automated line or line-adjacent inspection.
- How to quantify ROI with proven results, such as teams saving significant outsourcing costs and cutting turnaround from days to hours.
If your quality strategy depends on finding problems earlier, making faster decisions and launching with confidence, this webinar will show how industrial X-ray CT can deliver measurable results.

Lumafield was founded in 2019 to upgrade manufacturing.
We are engineers with deep experience across the product development cycle, from initial ideas to shipping hardware, across industries and specializations, who became frustrated by the cost and complexity of modern manufacturing. So we decided to upgrade it.
We started with industrial CT scanning, which for us was the most valuable but underutilized tool in the manufacturing toolbox, enabling us to rapidly inspect essential components non-destructively. But even this industrial advancement felt stuck in the past, using massive, costly hardware, reliant on complicated, outdated software. So we decided to upgrade it.
We rebuilt the whole system, from X-ray capture, to computer vision analysis, to web-based collaboration, to the entire business model, making the most advanced manufacturing tech more accessible to every industry.
Our company, like our platform, is designed for upgrades. We’re building for greater intelligence, autonomy, and speed. For deeper vision, operational excellence, and powerful insights. And then we'll upgrade it all again.
