Surgical robotics and operating room peripherals
In the operating room, the highest precision, absolute reliability, and maximum hygiene are essential. Surgical robots, surgical microscopes, and operating tables place different demands on drive technology. This requires customized gear and drive systems that integrate seamlessly into the complex medical technology infrastructure.
speeroX wheel set for surgical robots
Robotics applications place the highest demands on precision, reliability, and compactness. In addition to excellent positioning accuracy and a long service life, high power density is essential for gear solutions—especially in confined installation conditions.
In medical technology, there is another decisive factor: Operation must be as quiet as possible in order to meet the requirements of sensitive application environments.
These complex requirements make individually tailored gear design indispensable—and thus the use of speeroX the optimal solution for highly dynamic and precise motion tasks in sensitive areas of application, such as the RAD drives of the maxon group.
The advantages of speeroX at a glance:
- Low torsional play for high-precision movements
- High power density for maximum performance in the smallest installation space
- Balanced sliding effects for noise-minimized operation
Mobile C-arm systems for precise imaging in the operating room
Every second counts in the emergency room or operating theater. Mobile C-arm systems eliminate the need to transfer patients to a CT scanner, saving valuable time. Real-time X-ray images enable continuous monitoring of treatment progress and minimize risk to the patient.
Precise positioning of the C-arm system is essential. This is achieved by a high-precision, high-rigidity cycloidal worm gear that ensures reliable and repeatable alignment. The high-quality, precision-engineered design guarantees a long service life and reduces maintenance to a minimum, securing the investment in the long term. At the same time, the space-optimized design allows seamless integration into the C-arm system.
The advantages of worm cycloidal gears at a glance:
- Precise alignment of the C-arm system thanks to high-precision worm cycloidal gearing
- Long service life and low maintenance requirements for sustainable investment security
- Compact design for optimal integration into the C-arm system
speeroX for surgical microscope
Surgical microscopes enable smooth surgical procedures and examinations. Reliable operation is essential. By using a low-wear and robust steel-steel material combination, speeroX supports stable and precise positioning of the microscope. Balanced sliding effects ensure low-noise operation in a demanding environment. The efficiency-optimized design of speeroX also enables improved handling and effortless operation of the system. Last but not least, the compact design of speeroX contributes to better integrability and a space-saving setup of surgical microscopes.
Advantages of speeroX for use in surgical microscopes:
- Low noise emissions for comfortable handling
- Robust steel-steel pairing for long-lasting, low-wear operation
- High efficiency for simplified handling
