RF Teknik Medikal completed dismantling of the second Varian iX Silhouette linear accelerator at Centre Hospitalier d’Argenteuil, France, with Value Medical and a US-based partner. The work followed deinstallation of the [first system at the same facility](https://rftechnic.com/en/projects/argenteuil-varian-ix-silhouette-demontaj).

## Site planning and system dismantling

Site assessment, equipment configuration planning and risk analysis informed the work. The gantry, treatment couch, modulator cabinets, control consoles and associated subsystems were separated, with documented procedures to preserve mechanical and electronic integrity.

## Hospital logistics coordination

Lifting, handling and on-site movements were coordinated between the technical teams. The schedule was aligned with hospital operations, and the work was completed without interrupting clinical activity.
