muonFLUX Solutons
GScan's muonFLUX muon tomography systems analyses natural radiation, muons (heavy particles similar to electrons), as they pass through solid structures and accurately determines any corrosion, chemical changes, cracking, and faults.
muonFLUX has the most compact and lightweight design, boasting 30x superior scanning resolution compared to its rivals.
The systems provide:
-
3D images down to 1mm resolution
-
Scanned object size more than 10+ metres
-
Classifying hundreds of different materials
-
Safe for humans and scanned objects
-
Intuitive cloud-based software
muonFLUX Infra AI
GScan's muonFLUX Infra is equipped with patented reconstruction algorithms and advanced AI / Machine Learning-based 3D modelling tools, which enables the accurate distinction of materials and defects combined with high penetration. Using muonFLUX leads to more sophisticated assessments and sustainable decisions for the asset owners.
-
Remotely controlled and monitored, intuitive User Interface with cloud-supported software
-
The effective scanning area of 1.2 m² provided by the 1.0m x 1.7m x 0.4m scanner
-
Weight 80 kg
-
Power consumption up to 100W per scanner
-
Automated self-calibration, based on temperatures and positioning of the system
Use case example:
Post-tensioned bridge assessment
A section of bridge deck was scanned for defect detection and condition assessment.
-
Identification and visualisation of the internal ‘mechanics’ of the post-tensioned bridge deck distinguishing ducts, grouting and individual tendons.
-
Detection of the grouting voids in ducts and corrosion of tendons.
-
10+ metres penetration capability of any material, including steel and saturated materials
-
The scan resolution up to 1 mm
-
No special training in radiation safety and radiation licensing certifications for operating radiation equipment needed
-
No need for any special expertise on setting up the system and in the interpretation of results
muonFLUX Nuclear AI
GScan's muonFLUX Nuclear AI has very similar hardware with muonFLUX Infra AI. The software of muonFLUX Nuclear AI allows the effective noise reduction in the case of high gamma ray background presented. The special protection cover against the radioactive dust can be installed.

Use case example:
3D scanning for the decommissioning of military nuclear reactors
Two abandoned submarine reactors: a Soviet time training centre for sub-mariners at Paldiski, Estonia. The two reactors 346A and 346B. No good documentation about construction, conservation, and some radioactive waste containers dumped into the reactor sections and filled with concrete.
