Remanufactured GE R/F Rooms Remanufacturing
Steps
Remanufactured
GE R/F tables undergo a thorough steam cleaning, structural
inspection, and replacement of worn cables, safety mechanisms,
motors, and electrical switches. All locks, gears, bearings
and track surfaces are also inspected and replaced or repaired
as required. The system is then subjected to a detailed cosmetic
refinishing process and completely assembled in one of our
pre-staging rooms to ensure component compatibility, operational
functions and calibration to OEM specifications.
Table System
- The table is completely dismantled to it's bare frame
and undergoes a thorough steam cleaning of all non-sensitive
components.
- The system is inspected for structural imperfections and
fatigue followed by replacement of worn and unacceptable
components.
- All counterweight cables are replaced and all safety mechanisms
are tested.
- All motors and electrical switches are tested for operational
integrity and replaced or rebuilt as necessary.
- All locks and detents are inspected and replaced and gears
are replaced with upgrade metal versions.
- All bearings and track surfaces are inspected and replaced
or repaired as required.
- The system undergoes our refinishing process consisting
of Kondar primer surfacing then applications of color coat
with current General Electric type finish.
- The system is now reassembled for pre-staging and calibration.
- During pre-staging any cabling subjected to flex breaking
is replaced, trim hardware is replaced and Mylar covers
and shields are replaced.
- The system is completely assembled in one of our pre-stage
rooms for component compatibility, operational functions
and calibrated to OEM specifications.
High Frequency X-Ray Generator
- New High Frequency generators are available in output
ratings from 30KW to 100KW from various suppliers.
- Optional Pulsed Fluoroscopy modules and Touchscreen
consoles are available.
Spot-Film Device
- The spot film device is dismantled and trim panels are
forwarded to refinishing.
- The entire system undergoes a thorough cleaning and inspection
for overall integrity.
- At this time the unit will be rejected or will enter the
re-manufacturing area.
- All motors, relays, solenoids and clutches are tested and repaired
or replaced as required.
- The internal cassette carriage is inspected for fatigue
and excessive wear and is replaced as necessary.
- All bearings and track surfaces are inspected and replaced
as required.
- All switches, pots and other controls are tested and replaced
as required.
- All cables, springs, belts and associated parts are inspected
and replaced as required.
- New protective lead protective apron is installed.
- The system undergoes our refinishing process consisting
of Kondar primer surfacing then applications of color coat
with current General Electric type finish.
- The system will now be pre-staged to its associated table
and fully tested and calibrated to OEM specifications.
Image System
- The image system is dismantled/ inspected.
- Unit is cleaned and all nonstandard modifications are
removed.
- All components and cables are inspected and replaced as
needed.
- Unit is reassembled and undergoes complete cosmetic restoration.
- Unit is assembled on the end users R/F table and calibrated
to OEM specifications.
- At this time the real usable system gain and efficiency
is analyzed and must meet or exceed industry standards.
- Generator is interfaced to the image system and modified
to maintain 10R/min. limit.
- All cameras are new CCD units.
- Optional Infimed or CMT Digital systems are available.
- Final calibration checks of radiation output level, kV,
ma, filtration, sizing, focus, linearity, auto brightness
tracking and ability to penetrate a full size phantom is
made.
- The final product is a completely renewed image
system.
XT Radiographic Suspension
- The primary stage of processing an XT is the dismantling
and inspection of all components of the system.
- The system is inspected for structural imperfections and
physical wear of the metal components.
- All bearings and track surfaces are inspected and replaced
as necessary.
- Counterweight and safety cables are inspected and replaced
on all systems.
- The counterpoise spring and drum assembly is inspected
and replaced if replacement has not been completed within
the previous thirty-six (36) months.
- Vertical safety drum assembly is upgraded to current model
and tested for functionaliity.
- All locks are inspected/ replaced as required.
- Low/ high voltage cables are replaced.
- Internal and electrical cables are inspected and replaced
as required.
- The gooseneck assembly is retrofitted with balance plate
to reduce rotational lock wear and a high voltage cable
support brake to reduce flexing.
- The system is now cut to the desired customer length and
forwarded to cosmetic refinishing.
- The system undergoes our refinishing process consisting
of Kondar primer surfacing then applications of color coat
with current General Electric type finish.
- The system is pre-staged for total functional inspection/
calibration to original specification.
All Systems
- Each unit comes with a complete set of manuals: operator,
service, schematic.
