Position Control Center for X-ray Systems
Development and Production
of the “Position Control Center”

Development and Production of a Control Unit for Mobile C-Arcs

Challenge
For a series of newly developed mobile X-ray systems, a solution was needed that would allow the operator to control the C-arm and its four motorized axes easily and precisely from within the sterile field. The so-called “Position Control Center” had to be integrated into the device’s overall usability concept and meet the necessary functional safety requirements.

Solution
As a specialist in the development and production of HMI systems, SASSE was able to offer a one-stop solution. Based on jointly developed specifications, SASSE handled the mechanical and electronic design, while Ziehm implemented the firmware. A consistent “design-to-manufacture” approach resulted in a component that is highly user-friendly.

Customer Benefits
Focusing on each company’s core business leads to fast and efficient solutions. “Time to market” is a valuable benefit SASSE offers its customers.
