What Pixxgen does
PIXXGEN Corporation is a South Korea-headquartered manufacturer of digital flat-panel X-ray detectors (FPDs) serving four end markets: human medical imaging, veterinary diagnostics, industrial non-destructive testing (NDT)/security/EOD, and OEM/ODM private-label partners. The firm operates an R&D center and manufacturing facility in the Pyeongchon Smart Bay Building in Anyang-si with a satellite office in Gangnam, Seoul, and was founded in 2008. Its core technology centers on TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) array detectors, and in 2018 the company introduced what it claims is the world's first Non-Glass TFT detector, offered in both amorphous Silicon (a-Si) and IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide) variants. The product portfolio is structured under four sub-brands: PIXX (medical detectors across multiple sizes from 12x12 to 24x30 inches and large-format CBCT/Angiography panels), LATIVET (a total upgrade digital radiography system for veterinary clinics, bundled with the Zview software), OPTIMUM (industrial detectors with IGZO/a-Si options and 2x AED sensitivity for NDT and inspection), and Prudent (glass-free veterinary panel detectors). Technical features include IEEE 802.11ac wireless or Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, CsI or GOS scintillator options, IPX67 drop protection, DICOM 3.0 compliance, and native PACS/HIS/RIS integration.
The business model is primarily one-time capital equipment sale of detectors sold by quotation through direct enterprise sales, an OEM/ODM private-label custom development service, and a small usage-based remote technical support offering priced at 55,000 KRW per session (VAT included). Go-to-market relies on direct B2B inquiry funnels, multilingual website support (English, Korean, Spanish), and sustained participation in major global exhibitions including RSNA (Chicago), KIMES (Korea), RANZCR (Australia), Hospital Expo (Indonesia), MEDI-PHARM (Vietnam), WCNDT, VMX, IVECCS, AAEP, IRIA, and Expo Med. Products are distributed in approximately 50+ countries across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and Southeast Asia, with named end users including Korean hospitals and clinics and veterinary hospitals worldwide. Revenue, ownership structure, funding history, and patent portfolio are not publicly disclosed; the company is privately held and led by representative Kim Young (CEO/CTO).
