Belmont Touch is the new touchscreen x-ray from Belmont. Despite its technology being advanced, the product couldn't be simpler to use. The easy-clean screen produces instant error code reports and has multi-lingual functionality. It also switches into 'sleep mode' to conserve energy and contains a USB port and handheld exposure switch which can be wall mounted. Belmont Touch is also aesthetically appealing and has a zero-drift scissor-arm, which means it can be neatly stowed away against the wall when not in use.

Belmont Touch is compatible with any type of digital imaging system. Not only does it reduce the soft x-rays absorbed by the tissues, making it safer and more reassuring for patients, but the tube voltage, current and exposure time can all be selected according to the individual clinical need, helping to avoid unnecessary exposure to radiation.

Offering a minimum exposure time of just 0.01 seconds, the Belmont Touch pre-programmed timer is selectable for digital systems and two different types of films. A total of 16 film speeds are available and the lightweight, compact, easy to hold tube head enables the operator to align the tube accurately every time for re-producible, high contrast, crisp radiographs with excellent image quality.
