Medical engineering
Applications in medical engineering make the highest demands on hydraulics. Controlling of big forces when it‘s only possible to use small components because of narrow space for installation. A failure, for example due to a leak, can have wide-ranging consequences for the patient.
In order to move medical equipment, special hydraulic systems are needed that have to perform extraordinary tasks, especially in terms of reliability and quality.
BIERI provides standard or individual solution based on standard that fulfill the following functions:
- Up to 12 movements
- Synchronized movements
- safe concept (mechanical locking/shutoff valve)
- quiet
- smooth movements
- different speed
- minimal power consumption
- leakage free
- high forces at smallest available space
It includes small power units with DCmotors, in single or redundant design, valve blocks for the control of single and double acting cylinders, single and double acting cylinders with in-built pilot operated valves.
BIERI systems are used for example in surgical tables, X-Ray and CT-tables, delivery beds.
