Manufacturing

Gammatron provides sealed source manufacturing services built upon structured quality systems, regulatory compliance, and disciplined process control. Our manufacturing operations are designed to ensure consistency, traceability, and long-term reliability.

Production activities follow established procedures that govern material handling, assembly, inspection, and verification. Each stage is documented to maintain alignment with technical specifications and applicable regulatory requirements.

Our core manufacturing expertise includes Americium-241/Beryllium (Am-241/Be) neutron sources. These specialized sources require controlled fabrication techniques and careful oversight to ensure both performance and safety standards are achieved.

In addition to isotope-specific expertise, Gammatron works with a range of engineered alloys selected to meet structural, environmental, and performance requirements across various applications. Material selection is evaluated to ensure compatibility with design specifications and long-term source integrity.

Quality assurance measures are integrated throughout the production workflow. Equipment maintenance, calibration controls, and inspection protocols are implemented to support repeatable results across production runs.

Close coordination between engineering and manufacturing teams ensures that design intent is preserved during fabrication. This alignment helps reduce variability, improve reliability, and support lifecycle planning for each source produced.

Through disciplined manufacturing practices and technical expertise, Gammatron delivers sealed sources that meet demanding performance criteria while maintaining full documentation and compliance support.

This sustained commitment to process control and material integrity is reflected in Gammatron’s field performance record; in more than 50 years of operation, the company has never experienced a sealed source failure in the field.
