Nomad Classic Handheld Xray
The battery powered NOMAD Classic offers true portability with cordless operation and freedom from line voltage fluctuation. With several hundred exposures on one battery charge and a weight of under 4 kg, the NOMAD is ideal for remote use and confined spaces as well as operatory functions.
Using the Nomad you can now take an x-ray anytime during a procedure for verification. You’ll have more diagnostic information when you need it. Using the Nomad you will practice better dentistry. NOMAD gets the x-ray to the patient, not the patient to the x-ray so you don’t even have to leave the room. This improves workflow and saves time.
Features
Take quality images with a truly portable hand-held x-ray, Anytime...Anyplace !
Here’s how:
Economical– One NOMAD can easily do the work of multiple conventional wall-mount x-ray systems in clinical use, and it is unequalled for field work.
Truly Portable – Weighing only 4 kg, the battery powered hand-held NOMAD dental x-ray offers true portability with cordless operation and freedom from line voltage fluctuation. On one charge, NOMAD can easily take more than 100 exposures.
Improves Quality and Workflow – Now take an x-ray anytime during a procedure for verification. You will have more diagnostic information when you need it. You will practice better dentistry! NOMAD gets the x-ray to the patient, not the patient to the x-ray so you don't even leave the room! This improves work flow and saves time.
Easy to Use – The only input you need is the exposure time, entered through the user-friendly digital control panel. It’s easier for you and more comfortable for the patient. The ease of use and time savings is especially effective with children.
- Works Wherever You Go – NOMAD is perfect for traveling humanitarian/mobile dentistry with minimal equipment and facilities.

Application areas :
- Any dental surgery aiming to share equipment between rooms
- Working with small children or patients who are unable to remain stationary during the exposure
- Remote dental examinations in conjunction with digital sensor technology
- Military dental examination in remote locations
- Veterinary dental and small area examinations ( paws, limbs, etc. )
- Forensic victim identification
Can you get clear radiographs?
It has been clinically shown that NOMAD produces diagnostic quality x-rays and will work equally well with both film and digital imaging media. NOMAD provides all the benefits of DC performance: highest quality images and lowest patient dosage. NOMAD’s high-frequency, 60kv DC x-ray generator provides constant radiation output. This improves image quality while reducing the dose to the patient relative to traditional half-wave (AC) generators. There is also no loss of image quality due to movement of the Nomad during the exposure.

Operator Protection
The external backscatter shield and internal radiation shielding are specially designed to protect the operator from radiation exposure. In fact, the exposure from using NOMAD™ is orders of magnitude less than allowed by the Australian and New Zealand Standards. NOMAD radiation exposure is actually less than 1% of the allowed occupational doses. NOMAD is safe!

Consistent Performance
The high-frequency, constant potential X-Ray generator provides constant radiation output. This improves image quality while reducing the skin dose to the patient relative to traditional half-wave (AC) generators.
Ease of Operation
The light weight NOMAD is designed for simple operation. The only operator input needed is the exposure time, which is entered on the user-friendly digital control panel. NOMAD is compatible with both traditional x-ray film and digital sensors, making it easy for you and easy for the patient.

The NOMAD can also be supplied in a portable Flight Case configuration allowing the operator to to be highy mobile and have everything together in one convenient transport case. The Flight Case includes the Nomad, a digital xray sensor, a toughened notebook PC with archiving software, an intra oral camera, a photo printer and a document satchel in the lid. All equipment is protected in the custom foam lining making the flight case a truly portable solution.
More Convenience - Less Cost
Because the NOMAD Cordless Handheld X-ray System is completely portable, just one can replace multiple wall-mounted x-ray sources.
Accessories
Transport Case
The NOMAD carry case is designed to protect the unit during any kind or rough treatment. With space for two rechargeable batteries, the NOMAD Carry case is ready to go.
Fitted with a telescopic handle, the case can be transported easily on low friction castors
Flight Case
The portable Flight Case from INLINE Systems enables you to carry all the required dental imaging and diagnostic equipment for any examination in a single transport case. The case is fitted with a telescopic handle and castors for ease of use. Fitted with a custom foam insert, the case guarantees the safe transport of your delicate equipment even in the roughest conditions.
All the equipment is battery powered and can be also be used with mains power. When inserted into the case, each piece of equipment is connected to a central charging circuit with a single power connect for ease of use. Simply plug the power lead into the mains socket and each piece of equipment in the case will begin charging.
