Tomsk Open Laboratory for Material Inspection (TOLMI)

• We have created a prototype of induction positron accelerator with the energy of 3,5 MeV, a source of positrons for the accelerator.
• A betatron-based pulse positron injector has been developed as well as an efficient magnetic system for positron acceleration.
• The TOLMI-150-10 tomograph has been created.
• A electron positron annihilation spectrometer has been created.
• We have created an eddy-current defectoscope for controlling cylindrical products.
• We have created a technology and a prototype of an ultrasound tomograph for controlling nuclear waste containers.
• The Laboratory has developed technologies and systems for ultrasound quality control of objects with complex geometry made of composite materials.
• We have developed a technology for ultrasound tomography of composite products and created the biggest robotised ultrasound tomography device.
• Our researchers have developed special software for controlling the X-ray and ultrasound tomography subsystems, the optical tomography subsystem.
• We have created experimental subsystems of digital X-ray and ultrasound tomography, optical tomography, an experimental automated workplace. 
• The Laboratory has developed software and methodologies for testing special software, experimental subsystems for digital X-ray, ultrasound tomography and optical topography.

Implemented results of research:

• The technology of ultrasound tomography of composite products and the largest robotised ultrasound tomography device in Russia have been implemented in the Research Institute of Electrophysical Equipment - NIIEFA (a division of the «Rosatom» corporation).

• The intelligent combined automated system for digital machining enterprises has been implemented into the production line of the «Tomsk Electromechanical named after V. V. Vakhrushev».

Education and career development:

• One doctoral dissertation, 5 candidate dissertations, 15 bachelor degree theses, 3 specialist degree theses, 8 master degree theses have been defended.

• 7 undergraduate students and 3 undergraduate students are currently receiving additional training in collaborative scientific research programs at international research and education centres. 4 postgraduate students and 2 undergraduate students have participated in international and Russian research and practice conferences. 4 postgraduate students and 3 undergraduate students have presented the work of the Laboratory at various conferences.
