Movement is part and parcel of our life. Movement is even more important to people who are immobile: When they are ill or disabled. Such people are dependent upon care in order to be re-familiarised with every day activities or indulge in more. In hospitals and healthcare facilities, they are cared for by nurses, which is a time-consuming and difficult job.

Electrical medical products provide relief if they can be electrically operated by the nurses to make their daily routines easier to manage or by the patients or residents themselves to relieve the nursing staff even more. These products include hospital beds and healthcare beds, but also lifters, day beds and stretchers.

These medical applications are equipped with actuators that adjust their height and position lying surfaces. Mot ors and actuators, handsets and control boxes in the medical se ct or have to meet quality, dependability and compatibility requirements. Corresponding continuous developments will be processed by ILCON also in future.

ILCON has specialised on exactly such actuator systems. As a manufacturer you should know about safety features you build into your medical products when using ILCON actuator systems and the advantages you can thereby pass on to your customers.

That is one of the reasons why at ILCON customer orientation is very important indeed, why we focus upon customers and their specific requirements. We are fully committed to our customers, cooperate with them when looking for solutions and implement the derived concepts in defined projects. “Integrated Linear Actuator Concepts” says it all.
