 Striking Design.
Exceptional Performance.
Impressive Functionality.
In 1922, PTW launched the first dosemeter that used a revolutionary new
electromechanical component, the electrostatic relay. The Hammer dosemeter
was a milestone in the measurement of radiation dose and the first in a line of
high-precision dosemeters, which built PTW’s reputation as a quality and
technology leader in clinical dosimetry.

Nearly 100 years later, a new UNIDOS generation is ready to take technology
and usability to the next level.
