Cooling Medical X-ray Imaging Equipment

Introduction

Designed to take pictures inside a patient’s body, medical X-ray imaging systems are a vital piece of detection equipment. Medical X-ray imaging equipment can be used to detect and diagnose a wide range of injuries or diseases. In X-ray-based imaging techniques, an X-ray beam is projected through a patient to a recording medium. The generation and projection of an X-ray beam is highly inefficient and produces a large amount of waste heat. The heat load can be as much as 5KW.

Thermoelectric Cooler Assemblies for Reagent Storage






Maintaining a precise temperature below ambient, and monitoring this temperature carefully, are critical to extending the shelf life of reagents used in chemical and biological processes. Thermoelectric cooler assemblies provide a more efficient, reliable and cost-effective thermal control method compared to other thermal management technologies.

Precise Thermal Management for Additive Manufacturing

Introduction

Additive manufacturing, better known as 3D printing, is an emerging application that is finding an expanding purpose in the manufacturing process. Once primarily used for quickly making prototype parts, 3D printing is now also used to digitize workflow and manufacture production quality final products. There are many different types of 3D printing methods used to physically create a desired object.

Additive Manufacturing

When 3D printing evolved in the 1990s it was only considered to be suitable for prototyping parts. With improved materials, precision and repeatability, the technology is now frequently used in manufacturing of final products and digitization of workflows. 3D printing machines utilize lasers to stack (print) layer after layer of melted plastic resin or metal to create a solid three-dimensional part. This laser, or electron beam generates a tremendous amount of heat that needs to be dissipated away from sensitive electronics to assure high quality 3D objects and long-life operation.
