Maximize operator safety by eliminating close-range handling of gamma sources. The MKV Push Pull Winder is a rugged remote control system that ensures safe and precise control when projecting and retracting radioactive sources over extended distances. The aluminium gearbox and other durable materials are made for use in harsh industrial environments. Supplier: GammaTec NDT Supplies SOC Ltd
Gammatec’s Push/Pull Remote Control Winding Mechanism is designed for projecting source assemblies from all recognized Industrial Gamma Projectors. The units are available in either reel or pistol-grip versions. These are of lightweight construction and include a new Aluminium gearbox design incorporating a brake, Teleflex control cable, steel braided drive hoses and stainless steel connector fittings. To ensure a smooth push/pull operation, the robust and lightweight aluminium gearbox housing incorporates two low maintenance, dust-proof ball races as well as a 97mm diameter gear. A pressure spring provides maximum contact between gear and cable at all times
This unit is essential for industrial radiography. It allows operators to project a radioactive source along a guide tube to the exposure point and retract it back to a shielded position from a safe distance. This setup is a critical component for radiation safety and controlled exposure in any industrial environment.
| Mechanism: | Manual (Hand-Cranked) Remote Control |
| Function: | Project/Retract Radioactive Source Assembly |
| Control Type: | Gear-driven Cable Control |
From a safe distance the radiographer uses the Winder cranking mechanism and control cable, which is connected to the source assembly, to project the radioactive source along a guide tube from the projector to the point of radiography and retract the source back to the safe position inside the projector.
