Summary:An X-ray emission device and a method of assembly of the device having a casing with a window and an X-ray tube place in the casing. The tube comprises an anode assembly equipped with an anode, a cathode assembly equipped with a cathode and an envelope containing the anode and the cathode. The longitudinal positioning of the X-ray tube in the casing is produced on the anode side. The angular positioning of the X-ray tube in the casing on a longitudinal axis is produced on the anode side. A bayonet on the casing fastens a rotation axis support for the anode. The cathode is fixed in an angular position predetermined in relation to the bayonet by pins.
