This paper describes the development of an automated nuclear emulsion analyzing system, which is constructed of the following three parts, the nuclear emulsion “OPERA film”, the latest automated scanning system “S-UTS” and the three-dimensional track reconstruction software “NETSCAN”. The system is able to operate at a speed of 72 cm2/h and overcame the bottleneck of long time-consuming to recognize tracks in the nuclear emulsion by human eyes. The system is essential for the OPERA experiment, muon radiography, gamma-ray telescope and many other fields with nuclear emulsion.
