Medical / Rehabilitation
Futek offers a variety of standard sensors for medical applications such as: automated drug delivery control systems, infusion pump, fluid / medical bag weighing, sterilization systems, and rehab equipment. Below are some ofthe minia­turized, submersible, cryogenic, RoHS compliant, and MRI compatible sensors that make challenges more feasible to overcome in this demanding market. Custom sensors can also be provided for new OEM applications.
Application Examples
For more application examples, visit FUTEK's knowledge center or
applications section on www.futek.com.
1. Dentistry/Neck Sensor
Customized 4 channel sensor to measure forces applied during jaw relocation while pushing the head down into neck or all sides. Helps minimize forces during operation.
2. Blood Transfusion Management Systems & Kidney Dialysis (Pg. 13) OEM type load cell Model LSM250 & 300 with overload protection available from 100gto 500 Ibf capacity for bag weighing applications.
3. Carpel Tunnel
Very specialized 3 integrated load cells are used in assessing a wide range of Neuromuscularand skeletal disorders
4. Pinch Test AND Hand Gripper
Utilized in many rehabilitation programs to determine the severity of the injury, as well as the speed of recovery. Helps identify hand pains.
5. Tendon & Ligament Transducer
Special miniature version ofthe S-Beam type is used to measure tensional forces of tendons and ligaments during surgical procedures. Some special types are also implanted to measure forces and provide feedback.
6. Ophthalmology (Pg. 9-10)
Small load button type orforce sensors used in Ophthalmology systems during critical operations to control applied forces on the sharp blade.
7. Fluid Weighing & Drug Delivery System (Pg. 11-13)
Sbeam Jr.& LSM series widely used for this type of OEM application.
8. Orthopedic AND Joint Stimulator (Pg. 8)
Load cells similar to LCF series are widely used for endurance testing of artificial / implant Knee or hip joints in the "Load Soak Station system" or other medical simulator.
9. Guide Wire Torque Verification (Pg. 15)
FUTEK's very low capacity 5 ln-oz TFF400 with a digital display as a system is used to verify the torque in guide wire.
