You asked. We listened.
Exceptional imaging has always been at the heart of Rover. For RoverX, we asked radiographers one simple question:
What would make your shift easier?
Of course, we all love our storage for when you're carrying things around in between patients. We've got multiple options with this new model. I'm going to put my referral in this smaller bin here, and larger items like these wipes I can place behind in this larger storage area.
In-bin charging keeps the next detector ready, with no extra step.
The head drops further for cross-table work and narrow bedside approaches.
Somewhere to hang it that is not the bed rail or the floor.
Angle the monitor away from glare, wherever the light is coming from.
An intuitive interface brings controls, status indicators and connections together in one easy-to-use panel.
Green cues on the collimator, latch release and nudge button, so the controls you reach for are the ones you can see.
Multiple storage compartments keep referrals, wipes and everyday essentials organised and within easy reach between patients.

Why our team loves RoverX
Meet the people behind the technology, and what they're proudest of.
Chief Executive Officer. The scientist behind Nex Technology
"X‑ray is 130 years old, and the way we make X‑rays has barely changed in that time. NEX changes that. RoverX is what a mobile system looks like when it is built around NEX from the start."
Chief Operating Officer. The engineer who led the development
"We asked radiographers what would make their shift easier. Some answers were big, like an arm that goes lower. Some were as small as a hook for an apron. Every change on RoverX started with one of those answers."
Vice President, Global Sales. Driven to increase access and equity in diagnostic imaging.
"Customers ask me about image quality first and cost of ownership second. RoverX answers both, and Tube for Life puts a 10-year commitment behind the answer."
Head of US Operations and Global Service. Determined to deliver exceptional customer service for Rover customers.
"From a service point of view, NEX means fewer moving parts and fewer things to wear out. When RoverX does need attention, it is serviced and updated in the field, backed by the team who built the product."
Clinical Applications Specialist. Driven to help radiographers get every X‑ray right the first time.
"My role is to help radiographers feel confident using RoverX, so they can get the images they need and give their patients the best care."

FAQs.
RoverX is a mobile diagnostic X‑ray system. It delivers exceptional image quality at the point of care, without the weight, complexity and lifetime cost traditionally associated with mobile X‑ray.
The architecture. RoverX is powered by Micro-X NEX, a solid-state carbon nanotube based X‑ray technology that replaces many of the mechanical systems traditionally used in conventional X‑ray generators. By eliminating components such as hot filaments, the rotating anode, oil cooling and associated drive mechanisms, NEX enables a fundamentally simpler, more compact and reliable X‑ray architecture. RoverX delivers the performance of incumbent motorised X‑ray carts but is fundamentally lighter, easier to operate, simpler to maintain and designed for a lower total cost of ownership. It eliminates the work flow and positioning challenges that large motorised systems pose.
NEX (Nano Electronic X‑ray) is Micro-X's solid-state X‑ray technology with key innovations in X‑ray tubes and generators. Tubes are based on cold cathode field emission, that is the hot wire filament is replaced with carbon nanotubes as the electron source. No heat is generated when operating the emitter, resulting in a considerable reduction in size and no cathode cooling requirements.
Rover Plus remains in market and is unchanged. RoverX is the next generation system, with a redesigned body, revised footprint, a larger monitor interface and in-bin detector charging. It includes several feature enhancements to assist with workflow driven by direct feedback from Rover Plus users. The NEX imaging technology remains the same in Rover Plus and RoverX.
RoverX is used from acute and critical care through to settings where access is the problem rather than the department. Hospitals: emergency departments, ICU and critical care, inpatient wards, neonatal and paediatrics, long term acute care. Outpatients and specialty: clinics, ambulatory care, orthopaedics, home. Where access matters: sports medicine, occupational health, rural and regional healthcare, mobile and satellite services, large events and venues.
Yes. Micro-X Rover was awarded a Gold at the 2026 Australian Good Design Awards, in the Product Design, Medical and Scientific category. The jury singled out the modular tubular chassis, the vacuum formed body, integrated detector charging in the bin, and an arm and head that reach positions a conventional system cannot.
Yes. Exceptional image quality you can rely on, with diagnostic confidence at the point of care. RoverX is demonstrated to deliver diagnostic imaging for lower dose than conventional mobile systems, with no imaging performance degradation.
RoverX can image any patient, adult and paediatric, and any pathology that is typically performed in mobile bed side imaging
No. RoverX is smaller and lighter because of what NEX removes, not because of what has been reduced on the imaging side. The system is built to be compared with flagship incumbent systems, not with lightweight point-of-care units.
Yes. Clinical images across a range of examinations are in the Clinical Images section of this page, and our team can take you through a fuller set during a demonstration.
30 to 60% lower radiation dose, with no compromise on image quality. Source: white paper MAR015 1.0.
No. The dose reduction and the image quality are delivered together, not traded against each other. Exposure times are all beneath clinical guidelines.
Yes. Lower dose means protection for patients and for the imaging teams standing beside the system every day.
Yes, as an option. A user-installed 1.2 mm Al + 0.1 mm Cu filter, which does not block the light field.
112 kg (247 lb), with a main chassis 500 mm (19.7 in) wide and a 583 mm (22.9 in) wheel base. It is designed around the people who actually use it, to reduce the physical and operational effort of mobile imaging.
Yes. The arm and head position anywhere the image needs to be taken, in a smaller space than a conventional system needs.
Up to 7 hours of continuous use, from five LiFePO4 batteries.
There are three detector slots, taking 25 x 30 cm, 35 x 43 cm or 43 x 43 cm detectors. One slot charges in the bin, so the next detector is ready without a separate charging step.
A 47 cm (18.5 in) Full-HD LCD.
Seven things, and all are in RoverX. Green where your hands go. A hook for the apron. An arm that goes lower. Charging where the detectors live. A screen that tilts. Image stitching. An on/off button.
Radiographers, through the design sessions and the hands-on reviews that ran through development.
Yes. RoverX supports DICOM 3.0 Worklist, Store, Print, Modality Performed Procedure Step and Store Commit.
802.11 a/b/g/n/ac on 2.4 and 5 GHz, with WPA2-Enterprise or WPA2-Personal security (AES/TKIP).
Windows 10 LTSC 2019, with field software updates.
Tube for Life is a 10-year warranty on the NEX tube. The tube is the component that normally drives the largest unplanned cost in a mobile X‑ray system, so a 10-year warranty on it converts the architectural claim into a commercial commitment.
Simpler technology, fewer mechanical failure points. NEX removes the rotating anode, the oil cooling and the associated drive mechanisms, which is where a conventional mobile system carries most of its service burden.
