Medical Technology
From Start-Ups to Multi-National Companies
In radiotherapy to treat cancer tumors, linear particle accelerators (LINAC) are used to generate high-energy X-rays. Electrons are accelerated to very high speed using microwave energy.
Our components come into play when transmitting the microwave power into the LINAC.
Precision and reliability at the highest level as well as maximum performance in a small design, these are the essential requirements in medical technology that our products meet.
They promote the low-loss transmission of microwave energy and protect the microwave generator from damaging reflections.
What’s more, our Fast Ferrite Tuners (FFT) also enable fast energy switching while maintaining stable tube operation.
We offer a broad generic product portfolio for S-band (2.856 and 2.998 GHz) and X-band (9.3 GHz) LINACs. We also offer customer-specific, optimized solutions.
All our solutions are characterized by:
- Reliable protection and stable operation of the RF tube
- Extended RF tube life
- High efficiency
- Continuous, trouble-free operation
- High system availability
- Long system lifespan
- Low operating and low maintenance costs
