ELGO offers sensor solutions technology for analysis and laboratory technologies. The precise positioning of the pipetting arms in XYZ-axis direction is extremely important in sample processing. Incremental or absolute length measuring systems are used to determine the position information. Take a look at ELGO’s sensor solutions for medical and lab applications below.
Incremental magnetic length and angle measuring systems
- Contactless measuring technology
- Absolutely wear-free
- High system accuracy and repeatability
- Insensitive to dust, moisture, oils etc.
- High shock and vibration resistance
- Index pulse possible
- Various design form
In the field of medical imaging exact positioning is important. In computer and magnetic resonance imaging, the exact positioning of the patient is a prerequisite for the reliable diagnosis.
Absolute magnetic length and angle measuring systems
- Absolute position measuring for higher safety
- Actual position is always directly available – even after power cuts
- No referencing necessary
- High resolution
- Easy installation and handling
Modern surgical and treatment tables provide many adjustment possibilities for the correct positioning of the patient during treatment. Besides the height the horizontal and angular position can frequently be adjusted. ELGO measuring systems guarantee reliable and precise positioning.
Measuring systems for inclination detection
- Inclinometric measuring principle
- For the absolute detection of one- or multi-dimensional inclinations
- Single axis absolute inclinometer: ±90°
- Double/multi axis inclinometer: ±90°/±180°/ resp. ±90°/ ±90°/ ±180°
- High shock and vibration resistance
- IP67/IP69
In diagnostic radiology, the camera must be precisely aligned to obtain high quality images. For the flexible use different axes are electrically
movable. For the exact orientation of the camera, the positions are detected by ELGO sensors.
Magnetic rotative measuring systems
- Absolute or incremental measuring
- Wear-free technology
- Alternative to conventional optical rotary encoder systems
- Precise angle measurement by high system accuracy
- Direct installation on shaft/axis
