A tungsten alloy collimator is a device that narrows a beam of particles or waves. It belongs to the input and output elements of optical fiber communication devices. Tungsten alloy collimator can be adopted as a linear accelerator and cyclotron in medical treatment. It has a simple structure, through which the fiber radiating light can be converted into parallel light (Gaussian beam). So its main function is to efficiently maximize the light coupling into the device.
Collimators contain and direct the beam of radiation during a radiography exposure. This results in improved radiograph quality and safer operating conditions. Tungsten directional collimators direct the radiation beam from a side port as a 60° conical side throw when connected to a source guide tube.
Can be attached directly to an intermediate guide tube. It is held in position using a knurled thumb screw.
Excellent Shielding Performance: Tungsten alloy provides better shielding than lead, especially for stronger radiation. The TCN799 has a half-value layer of 4.3 for Iridium-192 and 1.12 for Cobalt-60, effectively reducing radiation levels in the workplace.
Eco-Friendly & Safe: Tungsten alloy is non-toxic, unlike harmful lead, making it safer for human health.
Easy to Use: Tungsten alloy is easy to machine, highly durable, and has uniform thickness (down to micron-level precision). Additionally, this collimator is spark-free, making it ideal for factory environments.
Improved Imaging Quality: By limiting the radiation beam and reducing scattered radiation on the film, it enhances the quality of radiographic images.
Industrial Radiographic Testing:
In industrial non-destructive testing, the TCN799 Tungsten Collimator is used to inspect pipelines, welds, and more. The collimated radiation beam provides clearer imaging of internal structures, improving inspection accuracy and reliability.
Medical Radiation Therapy:
In healthcare, tungsten alloy collimators are used in radiation therapy. They help focus the radiation beam precisely on tumors, reducing damage to surrounding healthy tissues.
