Mini-Medical Automatic Film Processors
The World's Most Popular Compact X-Ray Film Processor comes in the following models
Mini-Medical/90 - For physicians, chiropractors and podiatrists with clinics or small practices
Mini-Medical/130 - For low volume use for physicians, chiropractors and podiatrists
Mini-Medical/EP - For mammography films requiring 44 seconds dwell time in the developer
*Mini-NDT - For industrial use, meeting all the needs of the modern NDT department
ImageWorks' Mini-Medical is setting a new standard for tabletop film processors. These quality x-ray film processors are built and priced to make in-house film developing cost-effective for small offices, clinics, satellite health care facilities, and mobile installations, by including many time, space, and money-saving features found in higher priced models.
Simple operation - just a single switch activates the Mini-Medical. Ease of operation makes the unit simple for all staff members to use
Space-saving size - the Mini-Medical requires a minimum of precious darkroom space; it measures only 33" x 22" x 24" overall, with only a 21" footprint. Processed film exits from the top, back to the operator, allowing the unit to fit handily into smaller spaces
Reliable - the entire drive system is designed to take advantage of AFP's technological advances
- Our tank system features a molded plastic uni-body design
- A capacitor start motor assures quiet and reliable operation
- A worm drive greatly reduces the load on the drive system and extends motor life
- A reliable electromechanical film detector allows the Mini-Medical to accept standard sizes and colors of x -ray film
Quick and versatile - the Mini-Medical handles films as small as 4" x 4" and as large as 14" x 36" and can process up to 90 14" x 17" films per hour. An optional "No Plumbing" Kit allows the unit to function on self-contained chemicals, making the Mini-Medical ideal for mobile installations or in areas of strict EPA regulations regarding processor effluent disposal.
Features
Built-in quality control - Audible and visual indicators add to operator convenience by signaling when the processor is ready to accept another film
Developer level and temperature indicator - Two separate indicator lights let the operator know the developer solution is at the proper level and that it has reached the optimum temperature for film processing
Constant readiness design - A special "jog" cycle keeps rollers wet while the machine is in standby, thus guaranteeing quality processing throughout the day
Automatic chemical replenisher - An electronic activating system replenishes solutions automatically keeping all chemicals used in the Mini-Medical at peak operating efficiency
Interlocking crossover - Films travel from tank to tank with minimum exposure to air. The tank's new molded plastic uni-body design and the interlocking design of each rack simplify removal
Automatic wash water control - Minimizes the consumption of water by eliminating flow during standby mode. Approximately 1 pint of fresh water is added during each "jog" cycle to eliminate algae problems associated with standing water
Infrared dryer - Energy efficient "I.R. heat lamps" dry each film quickly and quietly. "Pivot-back" dryer rack enables easy access to wash section
Simple installation - The AFP Mini-Medical runs on standard electrical current (115 VAC, 15 A) and requires only a cold water line connection. The unit is UL approved
Automatic standby - During periods of inactivity, the drive motor and pumps shut off automatically reducing energy consumption and mechanical wear. Temperatures are maintained electronically
Light-proof covered feed tray - Reduces time in the dark
Silver recovery connection - Fixer drainage hose fittings are compatible with most standard silver recovery units
Solid state circuitry - Modular, state-of-the-art electronics are designed to assure reliable operation with minimal start-up and reset times. An audible tone alerts operator that processor is ready to accept another film
