From small test pieces to massive structures: get precise results on-site in just 40 seconds.

Traditional X-ray residual stress analyzers were bulky, stationary systems that often required large samples to be cut, relieving the very stress you need to measure, while multi-point analysis took hours. We solved this by leveraging our proprietary optical sensing technology to develop the industry's first portable analyzer using the cosα method.
Over the 13 years since its inception, the series has evolved through three generations of continuous innovation. By capturing the full Debye-Scherrer ring unique to the cosα method, our equipment enables analysis with exceptionally high repeatability. Whether you are tackling post-processing deformation, welding cracks, or heat treatment inconsistencies, the μ-X360J empowers you to optimize quality control, improve yields, and perform critical infrastructure life-time assessments with ease.

Eliminate complicated operations and settings, anyone can easily prepare and perform measurements.

Our intuitive software simplifies sample setup, automating everything from measurement to final data reporting. With an integrated camera and laser markers for visual guidance, setup is as simple as point-and-shoot. No specialized technician? No problem. Anyone on your team can master it in minutes.
The system's fast measurement speed and its compact design enables seamless integration with robotics and automated stages to achieve high-speed mapping.
On-site measurement for large-scale workpieces and critical infrastructure.

On-site measurement for large-scale workpieces and critical infrastructure.

Lab-grade precision in the field. Measurement without boundaries.

From palm-sized components to massive storage tanks, industrial rolls, and civil infrastructure, location is no longer a barrier.
Weighing just 8.1kg in total (Sensor Unit: 3.0kg / Power Unit: 5.1kg), the entire system fits into a portable carrying case for easy transport between factory floors or remote sites. With a 10-minute setup and no long warm-up cycles required, it is ready to perform exactly when and where you need it.
