Troubles when Separating / Coupling the Mammo Cassette

Mammo cassette has a structure different from the regular cassette as shown below, the REGIUS Plate protrud-
ing into the frame area of the front plate, so that the exposure area shall be extended to the chest side.
Mammo Type
Back Plate
Therefore, when the back plate is separated or coupled from / with the front plate at the magnetizing position, the
back plate (cassette magnetizing plate) is first lowered by 3mm, then the front plate is separated and sent to the
evacuation position.
In this operation, if the unti-slip rubber which sandwiches and hold the front plate from both side is fell off or dis-
abled in some way, the front plate will also move in conjunction with the back plate when it moves by 3mm, caus-
ing a trouble in separation / coupling operation.
3 Different Aspects of
Justification Mechanism
Should error in separation / coupling repeats exclusively with the mammo cassette, refer to
Adjusting the Justification Allowance,
without failure during the operation.
