Radiation Shield

Radiation Shield

Thermal and Electromagnetic Shielding

Protection and Cooling for Extreme Applications

High-performance shielding for cryogenics, vacuum, and high-frequency technology


The radiation shield is a complex structure made of high-conductivity copper, developed for applications in high-energy physics, cryogenics, and vacuum technology. It serves as thermal and electromagnetic shielding as well as a structural component for cryogenic systems or high-frequency applications. Through a combination of precise forming, vacuum brazing, and laser welding, this component meets extreme requirements for stability, thermal efficiency, and dimensional accuracy.

Applications

Key Features

  • Material Selection: Use of high-purity copper (OFHC) or special alloys for demanding applications
  • Forming: Production of complex geometries through deep drawing, rolling, and bending, including flanges, feedthroughs, and cooling channels
  • Vacuum Brazing: Joining all components with high leak tightness and thermal uniformity; integration of cooling channels with brazed-in copper tubes
  • Laser Welding: Used for connecting delicate or hard-to-access structures
  • Technology Integration: Perfect coordination of all manufacturing steps right from the design phase
  • Thermal Stability: Resistance from cryogenic temperatures to high thermal loads
  • Dimensional Accuracy and Reproducibility: Tight tolerances, low leak rates, and high repeatability, even in series production

The radiation shield is a technically sophisticated component that meets the highest demands on thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties through its combination of forming, vacuum brazing, and laser welding. With its tailored geometry, integrated liquid cooling, and vacuum-tight joints, it is a key component for cryogenic and high-energy applications. Thanks to advanced manufacturing technologies and strict quality control, it sets new standards in high-precision manufacturing.
