Icon Netzer Rotary encoders for medical applications

Medical Robotics Encoders

Digital Laparoscopic Surgical System

CASE STUDY

Digital Laparoscopic Surgical System. Digital laparoscopy provides surgeons with improved control, ergonomic comfort, and a higher degree of confidence when performing a wide variety of procedures.

Encoder Requirements

  • Hollow shaft
  • High precision
  • Low profile
  • Immunity to magnetic fields interference and EMC

Rotary Encoder

  • Netzer DS-58 & DS-90 Absolute Position Electric Encoders™ are incorporated in the robotic arm with the frameless motor.
  • Compact, low profile, lightweight & wide bore: Allowing high-level integration for a low profile arm joint design.
  • Frameless & contactless with negligible weight, introducing no extra mass & inertia (load) to the robotic system.
  • Total immunity to magnetic interference: Can be positioned very close to the frameless motor magnets.
  • High resolution 18 bit & accuracy < 0.015deg for smooth and high accuracy rotation with high repeatability of 1 count.
  • Standard digital serial interfaces, SSi, BiSS.
  • Special safety algorithms with real-time BIT (Built-In Test) over SSi or BiSS.
