Radiation Detection at Scrap Metal Facilities

The Cricket™ Grapple and magnet systems are unique in the industry, with over 400 systems successfully operating around the world. Their extremely rugged and robust design has been developed and proven over 8 years.   The systems can be fitted to any grapple, are easy to install and maintain, and are very operator friendly.

Cricket™ is ideal for bulk scrap handling at facilities including:

• Port, waterside loading / unloading applications
  • detects radioactive material before it is unloaded
  • particularly useful if no other radiation detection systems are being used
  • acts as a backup for vehicle systems               
• Rail car loading / unloading
  • look closer and catch the deeply buried source the vehicle monitoring systems missed         
• Shredder infeed loading
  • prevent equipment and personnel contamination
• Charge bucket loading
  • last chance to detect radioactive material before it is melted
