Servicing the Shimadzu MobileDart Evolution Family (MobileDaRt, EFX, MX7)

Overview

Portable X-ray units are found in most radiological/diagnostic imaging departments. They are typically exposed to a higher abuse level due to elevator openings, tight room entrances, limited patient access, and lack of space for maneuverability. This constant abuse will cause premature mechanical failure if not properly identified and corrected early. The trained service professional will be taught the skills necessary for mechanical, electromechanical, and electronic maintenance of the Shimadzu MobileDart Evolution Portable Family. Each sub-system of the mechanical unit and the generator is thoroughly analyzed.
