| product description:
product destination Medical Suction Expert 50 sucks off liquids out of operational field during surgery. functionality modularity enables to assemble the device in accordance with user’s needs fully equiped or in basic, economic version. Modular construction gives the possibility for assembling parts at client’s and allows for mininimalisation the capacity during transportation.
| case study:
Product was realised in 2012 as a result of programme “Ergonomy for medicine”. The goal was to combain the elements of MTS system with the suction unit in order to achieve fully ergonomic, and functional workstation with keeping at the same time the stylistic line as the rest product of the producer have. The aim was achieved thanks of enclosing into projecting medical environment observation supported with users and seler’s interviews and ergonomy recognition This way gained information allowed for defining proper user’s needs and worked out fully ergonomics devices being as well modular workstation.

a
| material:
The modules elements are made of composite QUADUR , bilogically indifferent, waterproof, resistant to chemical substances, easy in maintenance and conservation, UV resistant, shockproof, hard-burning, easy to keep clean, long life useage, safe electric conduction, colored in mass, no need of varnish, all colors of RAL scale. QCI – quadur composite injection modern method of forming polyester composites ( injection with pressure compressionof different layers of composites resin, fibers, fillers time production optimization ( 40 % shorter time of final processing, energy usage minimized, manufactured items are baring constructions at time, with built-in inserts, can be colored in mass, additional features like heat resistance EMC screening.
