About us:

Excillum started 2007 and makes the world’s brightest microfocus X-ray tubes. The MetalJet X-ray tubes are conventional microfocus tubes with the solid-metal anode replaced by a liquid-metal jet. A metal-jet anode is continuously regenerated and already in the molten state. Thereby, the classical power limit of an X-ray source, when the anode is permanently damaged by the electron beam, no longer applies. Our unique MetalJet microfocus x-ray source technology can at current stage generate roughly 10 times the X-ray flux of a conventional solid anode X-ray source from the same source area.
