Because the human population is growing inexorably and we are getting older and older. In the last 60 years or so, the worldwide Life expectancy increased by around 20 years. This development is due not least to modern medical technology. Medical technology devices, imaging diagnostics and all the components built into medical technology must meet high requirements so that they can meet the necessary, often global, permits and safety regulations.

Brand new medical technology

Below we present innovations for medical technology such as Drives, Sensors, Dosing, Materials, robots and robot drool or medical devices and assemblies as well as numerous application examples for your brainstorming and new development.

ats220319The "femsense“Technology from Steady sense continuously records body temperature in a simple, exact and hygienic way. It can be used, for example, to determine ovulation when a child is about to be born, or it can record dangerous temperature increases after the operation.

People move less and less. Fraunhofer Researchers have now developed an interactive learning system that is supposed to motivate more movement in a playful way: One Sensor mat is with one Activity monitor combined. With the system, children and adults can keep fit and build up knowledge at the same time. The solution records the intensity of movement and displays it immediately.

Mayr10315Electromagnetic spring-loaded brakes precisely ensure the function of high-quality medical devices such as X-ray machines, surgical microscopes or electric wheelchairs. Mayr Antriebstechnik offers application-optimized and efficient solutions for the high requirements of medical technology such as the "Roba-stop-M".

A product development that makes everyday life easier for many people is the best reward for the designer. A prime example of this is the wheelchair coupling Rollikup of Teuto reserve gGmbH. First developed on behalf of a wheelchair user, the coupling, which is as simple as it is ingenious, has developed into a successful product. Trailers, suitcases and much more can be connected to the wheelchair with the wheelchair via the trailer coupling. All it takes is a flick of the wrist. controls from Heinrich Kipp Werk make that possible.
