Tungsten Alloys X-ray Target

Tungsten Alloys X-ray Target

X-ray target can be subjected to higher loadings than stationary anodes. By rotation of dish-shaped X-ray targets under the electron beam, a new, already cooled part of the target surface is continually used as the focal spot. Moreover, the X-ray target cools down more rapidly by radiating its heat. Far more energy per unit time can therefore be supplied to an X-ray tube with an X-ray target in comparison with a stationary anode. 

For diagnosis, we supply X-ray target and stationary anodes for diverse X-ray applications. Our X-ray target can withstand extreme thermal stress in temperatures of over 2,000℃. All our products are superior quality and durable, guaranteeing longer life.

Electromagnetic blasting is created by the slowing fast electrons down on the anode. 1% of the affected energy is transformed into X-ray blasting and 99% into heat. Because of that, components within the X-ray should have high thermal resistance and applied material should possess a highest possible melting point, heat sink capacity, good heat conductivity and a smallest possible vapor pressure. 

We produce tungsten alloy X-ray target components, made of high performance materials (molybdenum, tungsten, WRe alloys), for the assembly of X-ray target tubes and X-ray target technology, which are used worldwide for picture giving systems.
