Detection Technology has enhanced its range of X-ray flat panel detectors specifically for battery inspection by introducing IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide) technology.
This addition, offered in panel sizes of 1313, 3030, and 4343, complements the company's existing a-Si (Amorphous Silicon) solutions. The aim is to address increasing demands for speed, accuracy, and efficiency in the battery manufacturing sector.
Energy storage applications
The newly introduced IGZO detectors are now being utilised by EV battery manufacturers, offering improved performance in high-volume production settings. Flat panel detectors play a crucial role in battery cell and pack inspection by providing high-resolution X-ray images that can detect internal issues such as air pockets, cracks, voids, misaligned layers, and foreign materials, ensuring the quality and reliability of batteries used in automotive and energy storage sectors.

Detection Technology’s X-Panel series offers various panel size options, engineered for demanding environments. These detectors feature extensive area imaging, fine resolution, low noise, and exceptional pixel uniformity. They suit inline, at-line, and offline inspection systems and accommodate a diverse range of battery formats, including cylindrical, pouch, button, and power winding configurations.
X-ray imaging solutions
Wei Chunlin, Sales Director at Detection Technology, stated, “With our IGZO and a-Si detector technologies, we aim to provide manufacturers with application-optimised and scalable solutions for battery inspection.” These detectors offer consistent, high-speed imaging performance and are backed by around-the-clock customer support.
Tuomas Holma, Product Director at Detection Technology, added, “Our solutions enable early detection of even the smallest internal defects while maintaining inspection accuracy at high production speeds. They support non-destructive inspection across key quality control applications, including overhang wrapping alignment, pole piece wrinkling, lithium plating, air bubbles, welding defects, and foreign object detection.”
Detection Technology plans to present its advanced battery inspection solutions at the China International Battery Fair (CIBF) in Shenzhen, China, from 13-15 May 2026. Attendees can visit Detection Technology at Hall 3, Stand 3T089 to explore its latest X-ray imaging solutions designed for battery manufacturing.
Detection Technology, a pioneer in X-ray detector solutions, has expanded its X-ray flat panel detector portfolio for battery inspection by adding high-speed IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide) -based detectors, available in panel sizes 1313, 3030, and 4343, alongside its established a-Si (Amorphous Silicon) solutions. The expanded offering is designed to meet increasing requirements for imaging speed, precision, and throughput in battery manufacturing.
The company’s IGZO detectors, optimised for battery inspection, are already being delivered to EV battery manufacturers. The IGZO-offering is complementing Detection Technology’s proven a-Si solutions with enhanced performance for high-volume production environments.
Energy storage applications
Flat panel detectors are widely used in battery cell and battery pack inspection to generate high-resolution X-ray images that reveal internal defects such as air pockets, cracks, voids, misaligned layers, and foreign objects.
