Portescap to highlight motor capabilities at MD&M West 2024

Portescap, a specialist in micro motion solutions for the medical industry, is exhibiting at Medical Design & Manufacturing (MDM) West 2024, from 6-8 February at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California.

The company will be able to discuss its flat motor products, frameless motor capabilities, and extended life capabilities for harsh medical environments like saline, autoclave, and dishwasher. All solutions have been developed to meet the demands of medical applications. Flat and frameless motors are ideal for robotic joints and control axes that demand precise servo-driven movement. Portescap’s extended life motor is designed to outperform in extremely harsh sterilisation environments or in surgical hand tools. Frameless motors and extended life motors are available by request only.

Portescap will also focus on the M-Sense12A autoclavable encoder, its first autoclavable encoder, and the CNT2440 autoclavable controller. The M-Sense12A has been designed specifically for surgical applications and can survive over 2,000 sterilisation cycles, while the CNT2440 controller features a sensorless drive and can withstand up to 1,000 sterilisation cycles. Both accessories fill the critical need for sterilisable accessory options within the surgical market.
