| Source: Reflect Scientific, Inc.
OREM, UT--(Marketwire - October 16, 2008) - Reflect Scientific, Inc. (OTCBB : RSCF ), a supplier
of cryogenic cooling and test & measurement equipment to life sciences and
manufacturing industries, reported its Miralogix unit has entered into an
agreement with 3DX-RAY Limited, a unit of Image Scan Holdings plc, for the
integration of 3DX-RAY's products into Miralogix Catpro Environmental
Catalyst Inspection Systems.
3DX-RAY markets Image Scan's proprietary, modular software and hardware
that provide innovative methods of acquiring, interpreting and presenting
X-ray images. The technology includes three-dimensional ("3D") imaging
capability, making analysis and interpretation of images far easier than
with conventional two-dimensional ("2D") X-ray techniques.
Image Scan's products have been endorsed by world-leading organizations
like the British Government's Home Office, Rapiscan Systems Limited
("Rapiscan"), GE Healthcare (formerly Amersham plc) and Johnson Matthey.
"The addition of 3DX-RAY's technology represents an important advancement
of our Miralogix line as a complementary tool that greatly enhances
Miralogix's inspection capabilities," said Eric Pierson, director of
Miralogix. "The environmental catalyst industry is constantly seeking more
effective technologies to assist in their assurance of quality, and this
new partnership allows us to offer an integrated package to meet their
requirements."
Government mandates on environmental quality have made the need to treat
diesel exhaust an industry imperative creating an expanding market
potential for Miralogix's Catpro inspection systems. The company has taken
the opportunity to serve this large and expanding market by applying its
proven experience in developing integrated inspection systems for
non-destructive testing using advanced machine vision, laser and ultrasound
technologies.
Kim Boyce, CEO of Reflect Scientific, commented, "Diesel and automotive
catalyst inspection is a demanding process, so the addition of this X-ray
capability adds tremendous value for our customers. This alliance creates a
clear competitive advantage for Catpro, and makes further adoption of our
unique inspection technology now even more compelling."
