Medical engineering
Medical engineering companies see themselves confronted by the following challenges
- Very high safety requirements and absolute reliability
- High requirements in terms of market approvals and certifications
- Customer- and application-specific developments
- Suppliers with many years of proven ability to supply replacement parts or derivative products with the same technological compatibility
We support your company with innovative, application- and customer-specific products for use in both smaller apparatus and in large medical devices and systems.
Vacuum pumps and vacuum systems
Application examples
- Sterilisation with devices ranging from small table-top sterilisers through to large clinical sterilisers
- Sterilisation with laboratory and industrial autoclaves
- Suction of saliva in dental surgeries
