Co-60 Source System & Safety Shielding
We use Nordion Co-60 sealed sources mounted on dedicated source racks. When not in use, the sources are stored in a deep water pool for safe storage and management.
The irradiation cell has thick reinforced concrete shielding to prevent any leakage and keep irradiation operations safely contained within the controlled area.
Environmental monitoring, chamber access detection, and radiation monitoring systems continuously monitor operating conditions. If an abnormal condition is detected, safety interlocks are activated to lower the sources to a safe position at the bottom of the storage pool.

Automated Loading, Unloading & Conveying
After verification, products are loaded into dedicated irradiation containers (TOTEs) and transferred into the irradiation process by the automated loading, unloading, and conveyor system.
The system follows predefined routes and loading configurations to improve handling efficiency and process stability.
Four Shelf Transfer System
Loaded TOTEs are transported into the irradiation area along predefined routes. The four shelf transfer system exchanges TOTE positions to promote uniform dose delivery to the products.
The overhead conveyor system uses three sets of drive motors and chains. Stops controlled by the PLC system regulate the movement of carriers and products through the irradiation system.
Radiation Dosimetry System
We use dosimeters from Far West Technology (USA), with measurement and calibration procedures that conform to U.S. national standards.
Absorbance is measured with a spectrophotometer after irradiation. The absorbed dose is then calculated using computer software.
Logistics & Product Management
Unprocessed products and processed products are stored in separate areas to avoid any mix-up.
CBC features four loading docks and a nearly 5000 square meters warehouse (approximately 4,960 m²), supporting efficient container handling, storage, and flexible logistics services tailored to client needs.
