Nuclear Medicine Scanner with linear and rotary movements
BJ-Gear was contacted in regards to a development of a new nuclear medicine scanner. After a review of the various movements, it was decided to base it on BJ-Gear's standard gear program and carry out the necessary adaptations.
The BJ-Gear engineers performed the necessary dimensioning and engineering of the gears. In order to meet the demands for a.o. space, interface, backlash and performance, it was required to customize the gears in the following fields: Input shafts, input flanges, output shafts, output flanges, higher precision on worm wheels and worms and using a special procedure in connection with assembly for obtaining a high precision of the gears.
Some of the gears are also supplied with built-on motors, electromagnetic brakes and encoders. All our products are secured by a final functional test and control.
After delivery of these proto types, the units were lifetime tested and subsequently they were released for serial production.
Gearboxes used for the nuclear medicine scanner
Used for respectively the linear movement of the detector head and the rotation of the detector head
