3 Meter CoreScan PRO 3 Axes of Automation

CoreScan PRO is a versatile automated imaging system designed to scan geological core samples directly in boxes, split cores, or full round cores with exceptional resolution. The system integrates three axes of automated motion, allowing researchers to capture large overview scans or move to higher magnifications when detailed imaging is required.

The Y-axis stage includes an integrated core holder designed to stabilize cores during imaging. This stage can also be swapped with the included petrographic analyzer, transforming the system into a fully automated slide imaging platform capable of capturing thin sections in both plain and polarized light.

CoreScan PRO functions as a complete benchtop petrographic microscope, slide scanner, and core imaging system capable of handling core sections up to 1 meter in length. The platform is modular and customizable, with systems available in 1.5 m, 2 m, 2.5 m, and 3 m configurations to accommodate longer cores and specialized research applications.

Coming soon is a modular 5-axis core stage is currently under development, which will allow cores to be automatically rotated and imaged from multiple angles to generate full 3D photogrammetry models of core samples.
