DODIX® (Double Door IdealeX) – A secure and seamless transfer solution

DODIX®: a secure innovation

The DODIX® double-door system stands out from existing solutions due to its friction-free mechanism and container indexing on the docking cell door, eliminating contamination risks associated with joint friction and container pressure. Additionally, blind docking is possible as there is no alignment requirement between the cell door and the container, making operations simpler and safer.

IDEALEX® offers a range of DODIX® models to suit various applications:

  • DODIX® Ø150
  • DODIX® Ø200
  • DODIX® Ø270
  • DODIX® Ø350

Use of the DODIX® system

Thanks to user feedback, the DODIX® system has evolved and now offers clear advantages through its technology:

  • Blind docking of the container
  • No friction on seals
  • Reduced risk of contamination
  • No docking effort required without seal lubrication
  • Opening with a simple 15% lever rotation

For all these reasons, the DODIX® system is a solution that meets various missions, notably those led by the CEA (French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission), which plays a key role in the approval of devices used in the sector.
