Sensor Solutions for Medical Engineering

In Medical Engineering , reliability, precise measurements, and durable components Medical Engineering among the most critical factors. Novotechnik’s sensor solutions help medical professionals and device manufacturers make diagnostics, treatment, and patient care safer, more efficient, and more comfortable. Thanks to our many years of experience in the field of position and angle sensing, our technologies are used wherever precise position data is essential.

Usage

CPR machine

Product

Modular potentiometer
Pressure sensing plays a crucial role in automated chest compressions, ensuring that the compression depth is correct and can be individually adjusted to the patient’s body type and the course of treatment. Depending on the selected operating mode, the device also checks the position of the compression pad during therapy after each ventilation pause or after 100 compressions. If the chest has caved in due to previous compressions, any difference in height between the pad and the chest is compensated for. This ensures that the set compression depth is always maintained. A linear, mechanically and electrically redundant conductive plastic potentiometer was developed specifically for this application.

Usage

Radiation therapy

Product

Potentiometric angle sensors, P-4500 series
The device is used for targeted radiation therapy in cancer treatment. Inside is a rotating assembly that contains up to 10 different scattering foils and flattening filters. This allows the patient to be treated individually with appropriate radiation therapy. To ensure that the foils and filters are precisely aligned with the radiation distribution, Novotechnik potentiometers are used to position the rotating assembly.
