Armedica relies on the MAX7 actuator from Ewellix for its treatment tables

Turn four into one

When the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) set new regulations for alternating current medical devices, Armedica Manufacturing Corporation had to respond: They replaced the previously used MAX6 actuator from Ewellix with the MAX7 from the same manufacturer in their height-adjustable treatm…

Thanks to the Drive Assisted Motion (X-Motion) in the five-stage telescopic column, users can easily move and position ceiling- or wall-mounted X-ray tubes. The telescopic column moves from ground level (left) to head height in two to three seconds without the operator even noticing that they are moving 50 kilograms. (Image: Ewellix Group)

SmartX telescopic columns are also used in the synchronized patient table. The two TLT columns are synchronized by a SmartX control unit integrated into each lifting column, which communicates via a digital bus system. This ensures that the two TLTs extend and retract in parallel and uniformly under all conditions. (Image: Ewellix Group)

The CASM actuators are designed for very high performance and long service life. High-quality bearings and ball and lead screws ensure energy efficiency through their low friction and high precision through their minimal axial play. (Image: Ewellix Group)

The new actuators of the LEMC series from Ewellix, designed for higher load applications, use a planetary roller screw instead of a ball screw. This gives the actuator a higher power density than conventional designs and makes it more resistant to strong vibrations from the operating environment. (Image: Ewellix Group)

Electromechanical components replace fluid technology

A change offers numerous advantages

Until now, engineers who wanted to generate large forces or move heavy loads primarily relied on hydraulic drives. However, fluid technology systems are now facing serious competition in the world of linear movements: electromechanical actuators, consisting of precision ball or roller screw drives…
