In mining engineering, understanding rock mass mechanics under severe geological stress and blasting dynamics is crucial for safety. Traditional strain gauges only provide point measurements and fail during dynamic fractures. To solve this, a top-tier university mining laboratory implemented XTOP3D’s XTDIC 3D Optical Strain Measurement System for rock high-speed compression tests. Using a rigid loading machine and similar material simulation, the non-contact XTDIC system achieved synchronized high-speed image acquisition and data analysis. The solution successfully plotted uniaxial stress-strain curves and captured full-field deformation, displacement, and crack propagation. By measuring compressive strength, elastic modulus, and Poisson's ratio under diverse rock conditions (moisture, bedding, fissures), XTOP3D provides vital data support for mining pressure control, rockburst prevention, and open-pit slope stability, offering significant practical value for resource safety.

XTOP3D was invited to the 8th Material and Structural Strength Youth Forum in Wuxi, China, to support the upgrading of advanced manufacturing. The company showcased its self-developed XTDIC 3D Full-Field Strain Measurement System, a non-contact optical metrology solution that reaches international advanced standards. Unlike traditional contact methods, the XTDIC system utilizes digital image correlation (DIC) technology to capture real-time, full-field displacement and strain data. It successfully addresses complex testing challenges across various demanding scenarios, including 3000°C high-temperature material tension, welding deformation, microscopic tensile testing, sheet metal forming limits (FLC), Hopkinson pressure bar impact tests, and axle load fatigue testing. By tracking crack propagation and structural deformation, XTOP3D provides precise, reliable experimental data to optimize finite element analysis (FEA) and ensure product durability, safety, and stability in high-end equipment manufacturing.

At the 2nd Academic Conference on New Materials and Advanced Structures in Civil Engineering, XTOP3D showcased its self-developed XTDIC 3D optical strain measurement and analysis system.

XTOP3D's professional R&D and application support help engineering researchers achieve accurate, visual, and highly repeatable experimental results.

XTOP 3D was invited to the 6th Academic Symposium on Fatigue in Tianjin, showcasing its flagship XTDIC 3D Optical Strain Measurement System. As China's first independently developed 3D deformation measurement system based on Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technology, XTDIC offers a non-contact, highly accurate (up to 0.005%) solution for capturing full-field displacement and strain. The system supports a wide measurement range from 50mm to 10m. During the symposium, XTOP 3D demonstrated its mature applications across diverse fields, including metal biaxial tension, concrete three-point bending, fracture impact mechanics, biomechanical load testing, and finite element method (FEM) simulation validation, providing researchers with advanced digital visual data for material failure and fatigue analysis.

XTOP3D has officially launched its next-generation Tube Qualify system, a revolutionary 3D optical tube inspection solution designed to accelerate smart manufacturing in Industry 4.0. Utilizing advanced close-range photogrammetry and high-resolution industrial cameras, the system completes comprehensive non-contact inspection of complex, crossed, and special-shaped tubes in under 2 seconds without manual intervention.
