Electronically operated tungsten alloy radiation shielding door is specially designed to protect personnel from harmful secondary radiation in radiology department of hospitals. According to the experts, the radiation shielding effect of one material will go up along with a rising of its density. Tungsten alloy is the right material that has high density of 16.5-18.75 g/cm3 for applications of radiation shielding. Its density is 1.5 times higher than lead.

Although, many other metals such as gold, platinum and tantalum, have a comparable density to tungsten alloy. However, they are either over expensive to obtain or exotic to the environment. Combined with the high machinability and high module elasticity, the density property makes tungsten alloy to be capable of being machined into a variety of density needed radiation shielding components in medical fields. Therefore, a tungsten alloy radiation shielding door, especially an electronically operated tungsten alloy radiation shielding door, is the most preferred material to shield radiation sources such as X rays, and γ ray, etc.
