  • Casting stations designed to manufacture custom-made radiotherapy block shields made with low-melting alloys (i.e., alloys with a melting point usually below 100 degrees Celsius [212 degrees Fahrenheit]). These stations typically consist of a dispensing/melting unit that provides the appropriate alloy for the block, a refrigerated surface to accommodate the blocks, air cleaning systems (e.g., a ventilated hood), and cabinets to store the blocks. Some stations include a vibrator to make more homogeneous blocks. Low-melting alloy casting stations are used in healthcare facilities to manufacture custom-made radiotherapy block shields in dedicated workshops. A dedicated cutter to appropriately shape the molding material (i.e., styrofoam) is usually located close to the casting station.
