Medical equipment

Hand in hand: the rapid pace of medical developments is the stimulus for us to respond with new drive technology - and our health benefits

The pace of development in the field of Life Tech is breathtaking - new technologies are making possible today what seemed unthinkable a few years ago. Consequently, the demand for intelligent analysis and dosing processes is increasing, as is the need for high precision for the finest filigree motion. This requires ever more unusual dimensions of the mechanical drive units in medical and laboratory equipment - while at the same time offering maximum performance. Eichenberger has the experience and expertise to develop the optimal threaded spindle for your needs. Eichenberger screw drives are found in hospital beds and operating tables, in therapy and diagnostic equipment, as well as in volume tomography and ensure perfect motion - for height adjustment, physiotherapy equipment, or positioning MRI and scanning devices.

Application examples

Well adjusted The best positions for treatments, comfortable sleep and plenty of rest all contribute to recovery when in hospital. Operating tables and patient beds with height adjustments are essential for this. Eichenberger ball screws give smooth and silent motion – and are highly robust too.
Uninterrupted magnetism Aluminium and stainless steel leadscrews are not affected by magnetic fields. This makes Rondo and Speedy - the cold-formed round and high helix leadscrews from Eichenberger - indispensable in high-tech equipment such as magnetic resonance imaging and tomography (MRT) machines.
Forward to new dimensions The drives of devices used in laboratory analysis, dosing and operations must be small, highly precise and low-noise. Developments in Life Tech increasingly demand exceptional dimensions and quality from mechanical drive elements such as threaded spindles. Eichenberger masters these challenges for you.
Dentures? Right away! A 5-axis scanner with robotic arm sends the relevant oral data to a milling machine – during the first treatment. The miniaturised, cold-rolled Eichenberger ball screw enables the best possible flexibility for positioning the scanner.
The strength is in the silence Therapy devices require mechanical drives - small formats in dialysis machines or slightly larger in motor-assisted physiotherapy devices. Quiet running is the most important requirement here - achieved with Eichenberger screw drives.
