Medical technology

Hand in hand: We are responding to the rapid developments in medicine by developing new drive technology - for the benefit of our health

The pace of development in the field of life tech is breathtaking - new technologies are now making possible what seemed unthinkable just a few years ago. This also increases the demands on intelligent analysis and dosing processes - the most delicate movements must be carried out with high precision. The mechanical drive elements of medical and laboratory technology devices must therefore be available in ever more unusual dimensions - with maximum performance at the same time. Eichenberger is your experienced expert for the development of optimum lead screws. Eichenberger lead screws are also used in hospital beds and operating tables, in therapy and diagnostic equipment and in volume tomography. They ensure perfect movement - whether for height adjustment, in physiotherapy, for adjusting MRI equipment or for positioning scanners.

Application examples

Well bedded!
Hospital
Optimal treatment positions, comfortable lying and plenty of rest contribute to recovery in hospital. Height-adjustable operating tables and patient beds are essential for this. Ball screw drives from Eichenberger enable smooth and silent movements - with a high degree of robustness.
Undisturbed magnetism
Hospital
Sliding spindles made of aluminum or stainless steel are not affected by magnetic fields. Rondo and Speedy - the cold-formed round and lead screws from Eichenberger - are therefore indispensable in high-tech equipment such as MRI scanners.
Off to new dimensions!
Laboratory
Laboratory analysis, dosing and surgical devices require high-precision, low-noise and extremely small drives. Developments in life technology are placing ever more exceptional dimensional and quality demands on mechanical drive elements such as lead screws. Eichenberger masters these challenges for you.
Dentures? Immediately!
Laboratory
A 5-axis scanner with a robotic arm forwards the oral data to a milling machine - right from the first treatment. The miniaturized, cold-rolled ball screw drive from Eichenberger gives the scanner the best possible positioning flexibility.
Strength lies in tranquillity
Therapy
Therapy devices require mechanical drives - in small format in a dialysis machine or somewhat more massive in motor-assisted physiotherapy devices. Smooth running is the most important requirement here. Fulfill them with Eichenberger screw drives.
