Introducing the water-cooled 300 kV, 1200-watt portable system - the most powerful portable system on the market
October 2, 2025
With the launch of the new water-cooled EVO 300DW/1200, we sat down with Product Manager Jan Bressendorff to discuss what sets the EVO 1200-watt portable systems apart, the design thinking behind them, and how they enhance the daily work of field inspectors.
Jan, what makes the EVO 300D/1200 stand out in today’s market?
It’s pretty simple: 1200 watts in a portable 300 kV system is unique. Most comparable units stop at 900 watts. By pushing 30 percent further, we enable shorter exposure times, higher penetration, and greater productivity. In practice, it brings the performance of a stationary system into a portable format.
"In the warmest climates, where no other product can deliver, the EVO 300DW/1200 keeps going. It’s built for nonstop performance in the most demanding inspection jobs"
Jan Bressendorff, Product Manager
What makes you personally most proud when you look at the EVO 300D/1200?
We successfully combined high performance with robust, practical design. It’s engineered and built in Denmark, reflecting both precision and durability. Seeing inspectors use it successfully in demanding field conditions — that is very rewarding for me.
How will customers notice the difference in their daily work?
They will save time and reduce downtime. A job that might take 20 days with a 900-watt system can be completed in 17 days. That means faster turnaround, fewer interruptions, and a clear competitive edge. The difference is tangible in both hours and cost savings.
And what about the water-cooled version — who is it designed for?
The water-cooled EVO 300DW/1200 is designed for the most demanding applications, particularly in extremely hot environments where other systems cannot operate continuously. With stable cooling, it delivers full power for extended periods, even in temperatures above 35 °C. For inspectors in those extreme conditions, uninterrupted performance is critical — and that’s precisely what this system provides.
The EVO 1200-watt portables aren’t just about higher numbers — they’re about real results: faster turnaround, fewer interruptions, and reliable performance even in the most demanding environments.

October 28, 2026
As electronics become more powerful and advanced packaging technologies more complex, manufacturers face the challenge of detecting ever-smaller defects without reducing throughput. Optical inspection methods cannot reveal the buried structures found in high-power electronics, chiplets, HBM, through glass vias (TGVs), and advanced 3D packages. X-ray inspection and automated X-ray inspection (AXI) provide the required visibility, but higher resolution and penetration have traditionally come at the expense of speed. Recent advances in micro and nano focus X-ray source technology are overcoming this trade-off by delivering higher photon flux, improved contrast-to-noise ratio, and faster imaging. In this post we review these developments in high-power electronics, where higher voltage and power are required to penetrate through dense structures while maintaining micro-scale imaging, and advanced packaging where increasing complexity from vertical integration and sub-micron resolution combine. We highlight how increased throughput can be achieved while maintaining reliable defect detection.

October 8, 2026
On a pipeline job, the X-ray system is chosen for the weld, not from a catalog. Pipe size and access determine how the crew can inspect it. The procedure sets what the image must show. Heat, weight and exposure time shape the working day. A poor choice can cost hours. A good one helps the crew get an image the inspector can assess without needless delay.
