VisiConsult

What VisiConsult does

VisiConsult X-ray Systems & Solutions GmbH is a family-owned German industrial X-ray inspection systems supplier founded in 1996 and headquartered in Stockelsdorf, Schleswig-Holstein, employing more than 300 people across five operating entities: VCxray (broad non-destructive testing markets), VCbattery (electric vehicle battery inspection, including 2nd-life and recycling applications), VCcount (SMD component counting via the XRHCount product line), VC Inspection Services (X-ray as a Service), and diondo X-ray Systems & Services. The company serves enterprise customers in aerospace and aviation, automotive, defense, oil and gas, electronics manufacturing, forensics, food production, and scientific research, delivering systems used for non-destructive testing, quality assurance, and process optimization on critical components such as castings, welds, turbine blades, additive-manufactured parts, composites, and battery cells, modules, and packs.

The product stack combines ready-to-use X-ray cabinet systems and custom turnkey machines with proprietary 2D/3D image processing and metrology software, AI-based software modules (KI-SM) trained on a universal contractor-input database, and computer-vision pipelines that process image data together with metadata and human inspection decisions to produce structured annotations, noise reduction, and automated defect detection. Active research programs include inline battery CT (BIP Inline, Battery Attest), robotic AI-CT (RoboQuality), compact Industry 4.0 CT (nexAMo), additive manufacturing qualification (Enabl4D, GeniAL), and a planned standalone AI platform (x.AI), indicating an ongoing shift toward AI-native and platform-style offerings within the X-ray NDT stack.

Commercially, VisiConsult generates revenue through direct enterprise field sales across multi-year custom contracts, with pricing determined via quote-based engagements rather than public list pricing. Revenue streams include one-time hardware system sales, software licensing (including software-only and retrofitting packages), recurring XaaS inspection services delivered globally, and professional services such as training and remote maintenance. Distribution runs through wholly-owned regional hubs in the United States and India and sales branches in Brazil and China, complemented by German manufacturing under ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO/IEC 27001 certifications. Reporting and operating control sit with Managing Directors Lennart Schulenburg and Finn Schulenburg.
