Our story and the people who make it possible
Our mission is to enable new science, improve medicine and enhance manufacturing by redefining the X-ray tube. Wherever new opportunities and applications emerge, we pursue them relentlessly together with the scientific and industry pioneers who transform technological advances into meaningful results.
Our story
Excillum is a global leader in the field of advanced microfocus and nanofocus X-ray sources. Founded in 2007 by researchers from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Sweden, the company’s first product was the groundbreaking Excillum MetalJet, the world’s brightest microfocus X-ray tube. A few years later, the Excillum NanoTube was created based on advanced electron optics refined from the MetalJet e-beam platform, together with the latest transmission target technology. Today our fast-growing global team applies these core areas of expertise to expand our product portfolio, advance scientific progress and enable unimagined new applications together with leading academic researchers and industrial instrument developers worldwide.
Our customers
With more than one hundred sources deployed worldwide, we continue to develop the world’s most advanced X-ray source technologies based on the daily needs and workflows of a growing global community of innovators. Together with manufacturing inspection system developers, scientific researchers and system integrators, we work in a spirit of open collaboration devoted to cutting-edge science in order to constantly push the boundaries of what microfocus and nanofocus X-ray sources can achieve.
Our capabilities
As a leading pioneer in X-ray sources, we take pride in creating the world’s most advanced industrial- and laboratory-scale X-ray sources and electron-beam technologies. Together with end users and select system integrators worldwide, our team provides a complete range of specialized expertise in developing, deploying and refining X-ray sources for new and advanced applications.
Our partners
Our X-ray sources are an integral part of highly automated inspection systems for quality assurance in industrial manufacturing. In laboratory research, they are integrated into easy-to-use laboratory systems that ensure reliable results. To make these systems possible, we work closely in long-term partnerships with some of the most trusted OEMs and system integrators in the field X-ray technologies. Curious about what value Excillum can bring to your next-generation systems?
