Tungsten Collimators

Precision-machined tungsten collimators for nuclear medicine, PET, SPECT and radiotherapy equipment. The high density of tungsten (≥ 19 g/cm³) allows thinner shielding than lead without sacrificing attenuation. Manufactured to customer drawing.

  • Pure tungsten or heavy alloy according to attenuation requirement
  • Circular, hexagonal, parallel or converging channels
  • CNC machining + electrical discharge machining (EDM) for small-diameter channels
  • Higher attenuation coefficient than lead at equal thickness
  • Lead-free - compliant with the RoHS directive
