Diagnostic Equipment Improvement
Customized Motion Control Improves Medical Diagnosis Equipment
In recent decades the increased occurrences of medical conditions have driven the need for improved diagnostics. Companies on the quest to improve the capability of medical diagnosis have produced very impressive advancements. In order to make these advancements available at large scale availability requires equipment and instruments that process the analysis rapidly, though accuracy is most important. The ability to control several samples at the same time, deliver reagents accurately, control temperature, incubation, etc. requires control systems that deliver 100% accuracy and dependability.
Imagine: you need a biopsy, and you need to know what you might be facing. You take it for granted that the tests will be accurate, and you will get the results in a reasonable time frame. If the instrument performing the test is inferior the results can produce false positives or miss a potential diagnosis of something important. This is why medical diagnostic companies spend extraordinary efforts to insure the instruments work correctly all of the time.

Discover the potential cost savings of robotic automation over a 20-year system life
This calculator compares your current manual labor costs against the total cost of owning and operating a robotic system over its 20-year lifespan.
At the core of these instruments is a motion controller that performs the required control to process the appropriate motion of the sample, regents, I/O, etc. Not all motion controllers are created equal and it is unlikely that the optimum controller is off the shelf. To produce the optimum performing solution for one of the top diagnostic instruments, OMS Motion customized one of their off the shelf controller to produce the perfect solution for the requirements of the instrument.
