Scintacor delivers defence solutions through advanced scintillation technologies, enabling precision detection, surveillance, and protection. Our customizable products ensure security, resilience, and mission readiness across critical applications worldwide.
With over 100 years of expertise, we continue to evolve from our radar detection roots to today’s bespoke solutions, ensuring real-time, mission-critical information.
Invisible laser radiation is used in a theatre of operations for communications, range-finding, and laser target designators, amongst other applications. It is increasingly required to know if an asset is being actively illuminated with non-visible radiation. We enable detection of IR illumination to allow fast threat avoidance or reading of a transmitted signal.
Our wide range of scintillation products can be used in radiation detection equipment to confirm that an environment or object is free from radiation. In the laboratory, our products may be used to analyse and identify material samples from potentially contaminated regions.
Our x-ray phosphor screens are used to provide high frame rate, high resolution images of material structures from sub mm to metre scales as part of product design and test cycles.
Scintacor’s capability to manufacture large area x-ray screens provides the capability for non-destructive testing of munitions for defects such as cracks or voids with techniques such as flash x-ray cinematography.
