Compact and safe
The system operates very silent now.
This patient positioning and imaging
system is used in the radiotherapy. It consists of a linear axis mounted to the
ceiling, a robot, optimized for radiotherapie
and an X-ray unit, mounted on a
patient couch. The guiding of numerous
cables and conduits is hindered by a
limited ceiling height and the compact
covering of the positioning system. The
building height could be reduced without
losing functionality by using an e-chain®
of the series 3400 from igus®. A triflex® R chain guides the cables at rotaional
movements perfectly and without torsion.
