Handheld X-ray repair is a specialist's job. These units pack a high-frequency generator, radiation shielding, battery power, and control electronics into a device that gets picked up and put down dozens of times a day — and when one fails, a generic electronics bench is the wrong place for it. This guide covers exactly which handheld X-ray equipment XRD Dental Equipment repairs, what's serviced on each line, and how to get a unit onto our bench. We believe in naming what we service rather than claiming to fix everything: our repair program covers the Digimed handheld line, Digital Doc XTG generators, and our own XRD 70.
What We Service, Brand by Brand
| Equipment | Models Covered | Service Level |
|---|---|---|
| Digimed (South Korea) | Minix S, Minix V, Diox, Prox, Hybrid 70, Biox, xray2go | U.S. Authorized Service Center — repair and maintenance |
| Digital Doc | XTG handheld X-ray generators | Authorized repair and diagnostic service |
| XRD | XRD 70 portable X-ray | Full in-house repair and calibration |
The Digimed Handheld Line
XRD Dental Equipment is the U.S. Authorized Service Center for Digimed (South Korea), and that authorization covers the complete portable line: Minix S, Minix V, Diox, Prox, Hybrid 70, Biox, and xray2go. For a U.S. practice running a Digimed unit, this is the difference between domestic service with genuine manufacturer parts and the alternative — shipping a unit overseas or trusting an unauthorized workshop with a radiation-emitting device.
Repair and maintenance for the Digimed line runs through our standard mail-in workflow: full diagnostic on arrival, a free written estimate, repair with genuine parts after your approval, and return shipping. Whether the unit arrives with a power issue, a charging or battery problem, an exposure fault, an error condition on the display, or damage from a drop, the diagnostic identifies the root cause before anything is quoted.
The Digimed portable line — serviced in the U.S. at XRD's Clermont, FL facility.
Also on the bench
XRD provides authorized repair and diagnostic service for Digital Doc XTG handheld X-ray generators. XTG owners follow the same process as every other repair: submit a request, receive an RMA number and shipping instructions, and send the unit to Clermont. The diagnostic is free, the estimate is written, and no work begins without your approval.
Practices sometimes discover us after being told an XTG would have to go back through channels with a long, uncertain queue. Authorized service at a dedicated U.S. bench exists precisely so that a working practice doesn't have to park a capable generator in a drawer while it waits.
XRD 70
The XRD 70 is our own portable X-ray, and it gets full in-house repair and calibration — the deepest service level on our bench, from diagnostics through parts to final calibration against original specifications. XRD 70 units under warranty ship with a prepaid label, and XRD Care Club members receive a loaner unit during service so the practice keeps imaging while their unit is repaired.
Why "Authorized" Matters for a Handheld X-Ray
A handheld X-ray is not a laptop. It is an FDA-regulated radiation-emitting medical device, and after a repair it needs to perform exactly to its original specifications — exposure output, timing, and shielding integrity included. Authorized service means three concrete things:
- Genuine manufacturer parts. No generic substitutes on the high-voltage side, the battery system, or anywhere else. The unit that comes back is built from the same components it left the factory with.
- Manufacturer-backed knowledge. An authorized center works with the manufacturer's documentation and standards rather than reverse-engineering someone else's design on your equipment.
- Restoration to original specification. Repair ends with the unit verified against its original operating parameters — not just "powering on again."
Our facility in Clermont, Florida is FDA-registered, and the same certified-technician bench handles every unit we accept — there is no second-tier queue.
What Happens on the Bench
Whichever named brand arrives, the workflow on the bench is the same, and it starts with diagnosis rather than assumption:
- Intake and inspection. The unit is logged against its RMA, inspected for transit or impact damage, and checked against the problem description you submitted.
- Full diagnostic. The technician reproduces the fault and traces it to a root cause — battery system, exposure circuit, control electronics, display, or generator — instead of replacing parts until the symptom disappears.
- Written estimate. You receive the findings and the cost in writing, free and with no obligation. Nothing proceeds without your approval.
- Repair with genuine parts. Approved repairs use genuine manufacturer components, which is what the service-center authorization exists to guarantee.
- Verification and return. The unit is verified against its original operating specifications before it ships back — typically within a few business days of completion.
A few practical tips when you ship: use the original case if you still have it, or generous padding in a rigid box if you don't; include the RMA number exactly as instructed in your confirmation email; and if the unit took a drop, say so on the request form — it points the diagnostic in the right direction from the first minute.
How to Send Your Unit In
The process is the same whichever of the named brands you own:
- Submit the service request form on the Repair & Service page.
- Receive your RMA number and shipping instructions by email.
- Ship via UPS or FedEx from anywhere in the U.S.
- Approve the free written estimate after diagnosis.
- Receive your repaired, calibrated unit back — most repairs are completed in days, not weeks.
