Tungsten Alloy Collimator
Tungsten alloy collimator is a device that narrows a beam of particles or waves. It belongs to input and output element of optical fiber communication devices. Tungsten alloy collimator can be adopted as linear accelerator and cyclotron in medical treatment. Tungsten alloy collimator has a simple structure, through which the fiber radiate light can be converted into parallel light (gaussian beam). So its main function is to efficiently maximize the light coupling into the device.
Radiotherapy destroys cancer by directing beams of radiation directly onto the tumor. The beams of radiation require a very fine focus to avoid harming the surrounding healthy tissue. This focus is achieved by using a multi-leaf tungsten alloy collimator, consisting of two rows of very thin tungsten heavy alloy plates, which can be configured to match the dimensions of the tumor exactly.
Tungsten alloy collimator and tungsten alloy X-ray target are made of groundbreaking tungsten alloy X-ray targets components in the medical industry. Tungsten alloy collimator contributes significantly to successful radiotherapy through their high density and high shielding capability against X-rays and gamma rays.
Advantages of tungsten alloy collimator:
1. One of the most effective devices for reducing the radiation levels on a job site;
2. Increasing the quality of radiography shots by reducing the scattering radiation around the film;
3. Providing safer operating conditions for radiographers;
4. Tungsten alloy material is a more effective shielding material than lead. It is an easy handle, non-licensed and very effective shielding material;
5. Do not spark; it is a ideal material for plant operations.
