n ISTA Certified Testing
The testing laboratories
at TÜV SÜD, Munich,
Germany, have received
full accreditation
from the International
Safe Transit Association
(ISTA). Manufacturers
can have their packaging
tested and certified
for transport safety in
accordance with all
wide spread ISTA series.
n Linear Power Supplies
Custom linear power supplies for a wide range of applications are
available from Polytron Devices, Paterson, NJ. The P3 and P5 lownoise
linear power supplies provide multiple output voltages in a
single model. Other custom options include programmability, ONOFF
switches, and a variety of types such as open frame, desktop, and
wall plug-in models, in addition to enclosed units for harsh environments. Power capability ranges
from 30 to 450 W. Evaluation samples and safety-test units are available.

n Linear Voice Coil Motor
A new miniature metric linear voice coil motor is available from MotiPackaging
testing includes simulating the
mechanical and climatic conditions that
products may encounter during transportation
and storage. It explores how the products
are shipped, what stresses they are exposed
to, which requirements of the industry,
and the application in question they need to
comply with, and which potential (new) markets
are appropriate for the packaged products.
In the case of a positive result, an ISTA
test certificate is issued.

cont, Van Nuys, CA. The LVCM-013-008-02M linear voice coil motor, also
known as a moving coil motor, is only 12.7 mm (0.500 in.) in diameter. The
stroke length is 3.175 mm (0.125 in.) and the length at mid-stroke is just
12.7 mm (0.50) in. long. The miniature voice coil motor has a high forceto-size
ratio with a continuous force of 0.86 N (3.1 oz) and a peak force of 2.73 N (9.8 oz). The
brushless DC linear servo motor features high acceleration/deceleration and low inertia and is ideal
for haptic feedback in medical/surgical instruments.

EPOXY MEETS
ISO 10993-5
CERTIFICATION
Master Bond one-part epoxy,
EP4CL-80Med, is an
optically clear, very low
viscosity system that cures easily at 80-85 °C. This onepart
system possesses excellent dimensional stability
and low shrinkage upon curing. EP4CL-80Med offers
an exceptionally high tensile strength and modulus
as well as superb light transmission properties.

n Motion Smoothing
Teknic, Rochester, NY, offers regressive auto-spline (RAS) in its
ClearPath integrated servos. RAS is designed to go beyond traditional
motion smoothing algorithms such as S-curving or cosine smoothing
by limiting the jerk and the jerk-derivative, resulting in smooth
motion profiles. It can be configured with just a mouse click. It eliminates
vibration with a simple one-click setup.

n Prefilled Syringe Safety Device
A 1-mL safety device for prefilled syringes from Owen Mumford
Pharmaceutical Services, Oxford, England, has been approved
as a combination product in Asia. In Europe, regulatory
approval has also been granted for UniSafe 1mL, and the product
is now available on the market as a combination product with a
drug for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The platform uses unique spring-free mechanism to
prevent accidental activation and drug leakage. The plunger rod has an integrated design so
that it cannot be pulled out when removing the needle shield or the device from its packaging,
eliminating the risk of accidental drug spillage and compromised sterility.

Medical Design Briefs, July 2022
Siemens, Munich, Germany, offers three models of linear motors for
seamless integration with all Sinumerik or Simotion control systems using
Sinamics drives. The new models are 1FN3 peak load motors, 1FN3
continuous load motors, and 1FN6 magnet free secondary motors. 1FN3
peak load motors offer short time, high acceleration/deceleration, and velocity
rates comparable to S3 duty; 1FN3 continuous load motors provide long power-on
duration for horizontal, inclined, or compensated vertical axes. The 1FN6 magnetfree
secondary motors are ideal for long traverse lengths at high acceleration and velocity
rates. They can be used for horizontal, inclined, or compensated vertical axes.

n Spiral Torsion Springs
John Evans' Sons, Lansdale, PA, offers spiral torsion springs that allow
for rotation in two directions as well as a return to center capability. Used
in pairs at a right angle to each other, the springs enable a wide range of
motion in a two-axis configuration, while preserving the return to center
feature. Spiral torsion springs are normally used in applications requiring
less than 360 degrees of rotation. They are generally used to obtain a large amount of torque
through a small amount of rotation. A typical application is a dental x-ray head.
