Motorised drives provide for extreme precision in the handling of patients and in imaging processes such as X-ray, MRI or ultrasonic examinations. These applications require positioning accuracy within a tolerance of millimetres or even less. Since the machines are used for examining human patients, safety margins are extremely important in the case of a malfunction. Nabtesco cycloidal gears are the ideal choice!
The low backlash of less than one arcminute in our precision gears is decisive for high-quality and detailed images of the body.
Our low noise version with optimised gear geometry in the first gear stage ensures exceptionally quiet operation.
An emergency stop torque of up to 5 times the rated torque guarantees maximum safety.
We deliver custom and integrated precision gears that more than fulfil the high standards of medical technology: In addition to precise positioning within a tolerance of millimetres Nabtesco cycloidal gears are also designed with a high margin of safety to prevent injuries to patients and staff in the event of a disruption.
Our gears are designed for a long service life and stable operation, with an emergency stop torque of up to 5 times the rated torque! In addition, their overload capacity allows them to move heavy loads easily. To minimise the noise level in the vicinity of the patient the reduction gears are also available in a low-noise version.
