Styrofoam Cutter, KKU-Model

Abstract

Styrofoam cutter is an instrument which is used to make styrofoam blocks in fabrication of low melting point alloy shielding blocks for radiation teletherapy. It provides an easy and accurate way in shaping radiation beam for irregular fields of irradiation. Several models of Styrofoam Cutters have been established and commercialized ; but most are very expensive and some of them have many defects and limitation in practical use . Styrofoam Cutter, KKU-Model is innovated to give better performance, high safty and is sufficiently versatile for various techniques and teletherapy machines. Above all, it is much cheaper in comparison to other commercialized models
