Radcomm
Radcomm Europe are the European arm of Radcomm Systems (Canada), and manufacture radiation detection systems specifically targeted at the scrap processing and steel making industries.
As well as offering traditional Weighbridge systems, they are the only manufacturer to offer the unique grab-mounted radiation monitoring system (or 'Cricket' system) that is now used by the majority of leading scrap exporting companies and arc furnace operators.
MMH are agents for Radcomm in the UK, Ireland and South Africa.

An essential tool to have in every scrap metal yard is a Rad Comm Portable for detecting radiactive material. The RC2 is designed for the metals industry and is fully automatic, highly sensitive and easy to use in containers or vehicles that may contain radioactive materials, or to verify or separate radiactive materials that have triggered an alarm on a large scale radiation detection system.
The Portable contains a state of the art microprocessor and internal circuitry designed to automatically set the lowest achievable alarm level and to continuously monitor to maintain an optimum performance.

Ron Hull Jr recently upgraded their Rad Comm weighbridge system to the RC4000 series. With the very latest software, the system is able to provide an extremely high degree of detection capability for a wide range of radioactive elements commonly associated with scrap metal.
The RC4000 series consists of 1 to 7 panels in the detector assemblies, is supplied with a user-friendly Windows-based PC, large touch screen monitor, improved supervisory control, and remote maintenance access.

Metal Processor AMR purchased the Rad Comm RC4069 vehicle radiation detection system for their weighbridge so they will be able to pick up any unexpected radiation source in scrap.
The system is designed to detect radioactivity contained in a moving vehicle loaded with scrap material. The RC4000 Series incorporates state-of-the-art components and the most advanced software/hardware currently available.
Other Rad Comm systems that have recently been installed are at Metal And Waste in London, Concord Metals and Padarosa Metals in Scotland.

RadComm Radiation Detection Systems are becoming the norm for all scrap yards, not just in the UK but around the world.
MMH works closely with its partner RadComm Europe to supply our customers with these sophisticated systems, which are designed to detect all forms of radiation in scrap metals.
Having such a system in the yard, whether it's a weighbridge or grapple model, allows our customers to give assurance that their processed material is clean before it is shipped on to steel mills or other destinations.
