Applications

Reduced application risks associated with part changes and high-quality displays supporting medical care

Applications: Dental Chair

Background and Challenge

The control panel of dental units required not only high visibility to allow doctors to concentrate on treatment but also “continuity” based on medical device-specific regulations.

Risks Associated with Component Change Applications

Medical devices require regulatory applications when components are changed. Frequent component changes incur significant costs and man-hours for design modifications and applications.

Visibility That Doesn't Interrupt the “Moment” During Treatment

Even under strong shadowless lights or while wearing loupes, values like water flow rate and rotation speed must be accurately read at a glance.

Strict Hygiene Constraints

A structure capable of withstanding operation while wearing gloves and frequent disinfection with alcohol is essential.

Reasons for Selection

Long-Term Stable Supply to Reduce Risks and Costs Associated with Discontinuation

Avoiding short-cycle model changes like consumer models, maintaining the same specifications for many years, and minimizing the hassle and cost of re-applications due to part changes.

High-brightness display that stands out even under surgical lights

Bright, easy-to-read display where values clearly stand out on the screen. Icons clearly show the setting status, enabling intuitive operation (UI).

Interface optimized for glove operation and cleanability

Visibility and operability remain unaffected even through thick cover glass, enabling a seamless flat design. Easy disinfection with chemical solutions.
