Overview

Xnovo Technology ApS is a Danish company that develops innovative 3D X-ray imaging solutions for engineers and scientists, with emphasis on 3D crystallographic imaging tools for applications within engineering, materials sciences and geosciences. It is the commercial result of more than 20 years of Synchrotron and Diffraction-Imaging research at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), and was founded in December 2012 by Senior Scientist Erik Mejdal Lauridsen and Professor Henning Friis Poulsen. Its offerings include GrainMapper3D, XAIA (Xnovo Automated Image Analysis) and FiberScanner3D.

History

Xnovo Technology ApS is the commercial result of more than 20 years of Synchrotron and Diffraction-Imaging research at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Driven by an urge to make 3D crystallographic X-ray technology accessible for a wider range of materials scientists, Xnovo Technology ApS was founded in December 2012 by Senior Scientist Erik Mejdal Lauridsen, DTU-Energy Conversion, and Professor Henning Friis Poulsen, DTU-Physics. The transition from university research into a commercial company was supported by the tech oriented venture fund Capnova and Vækstforum Sjælland. The first commercial application of Xnovo's patent portfolio was the partnership with Carl Zeiss X-ray Microscopy Inc.; the 3D crystallographic imaging solution GrainMapper3D was made available as part of the LabDCT module on the ZEISS Xradia 520 Versa X-ray Microscope mid-2015. Through close collaborations with leading research institutions, Xnovo seeks to bring state-of-the-art analysis tools to its customers, and it still has strong ties to the Danish academic community.
