Abstract:
In medical isotope production, target materials for different isotopes exhibit significantly different phys-ical properties. To improve nuclear reaction yield and efficiency, target structures of various specifications are re quired to produce different radioisotopes. However, multi-specification targets hinder automat-ed production and increase on-site operation time. To reduce personnel radiation exposure risk in high-radiation environ ments, enhance rabbit system auto-mation, and improve target specification universality, this study designs a complete automated multi-specification pneumatic rabbit system. A dual-specification target rabbit box is de signed using a multi-gear buckle device. Segmented pneumatic transmission simulations verify system design ration-ality, and pipeline parameters and control processes are determined. The system enables bidirectional pneumatic transmission, precise positioning, and automated operation, providing a new solution for safe and efficient medical radionuclide production.
