DGE synchronous belt linear module: a cost-effective solution for automation of medical equipment

Hits: Time:2025-08-01 10:57:13 Author:

In the medical equipment industry, the performance of precision motion control systems directly impacts diagnostic accuracy and treatment safety. The DGE synchronous belt linear module, developed by Dingge Automation Equipment Company, has become an indispensable core component in medical automation equipment due to its unique technical features and cost-effective advantages. This article will delve into the technical advantages, economic value, and current industry application status of this module

1、technical advantage:The unity of cleanliness and reliability

The DGE synchronous belt linear module (such as the DGE-40-ZR model) incorporates multiple technological innovations, demonstrating outstanding performance in the harsh medical environment:

1. high dynamic response:With a speed of 5000mm/s and an acceleration time of only 0.2 seconds, the equipment's throughput efficiency is significantly improved. In emergency testing equipment, it can achieve rapid positioning of sample slides, shortening the testing cycle

2. high dynamic response:With a speed of 5000mm/s and an acceleration time of only 0.2 seconds, the equipment's throughput efficiency is significantly improved. In emergency testing equipment, it can achieve rapid positioning of sample slides, shortening the testing cycle

3. Precision motion control:The repeat positioning accuracy is ±0.1mm within a 1-meter range. Equipped with German Continental synchronous belts and NSK waterproof bearings, it ensures reliable operations such as the positioning of liquid transfer needles in automatic biochemical analyzers and the movement of scanning platforms in imaging equipment

4. Long-life design:Precision assembly through 18 processes ensures a lifespan of over 3 years under normal usage conditions (with an average daily operation of 8 hours), reducing the risk of downtime due to malfunctions in medical equipment


2、cost performance:The art of balancing cost and performance

Compared to other transmission solutions, the DGE synchronous belt module demonstrates significant economic advantages in the medical field:

1. Direct cost advantage

The structural complexity of synchronous belt drives is lower than that of ball screws, resulting in a 30%-40% reduction in material costs. Taking the DGE-40-ZR as an example, its module with a load capacity of 30kg is priced at only 60% of the ball screw module of the same level, freeing up more budget space for medical equipment manufacturers

2. Optimization of total lifecycle usage cost

Easy maintenance:Support direct oil injection through the oil nozzles on both sides, without the need to disassemble component 10. Replenish lubricating grease once every 100km of operation, reducing equipment maintenance time

Warranty Upgrade:Dingge provides an extended warranty of 396 days, which is 30% longer than the industry standard of 12 months. Additionally, we commit to "free replacement within one month," reducing the user's future investment

3. Delivery efficiency guarantee

Standard products are directly shipped from the manufacturer, with customized modules being scheduled for production within 24 hours. Delivery across the country takes 3-5 days, accelerating the R&D cycle of medical equipment

3、comparative analysis:Differentiated advantages in the medical scenario

Comparison of performance and economy of three mainstream linear modules in medical equipment:

Comparison conclusion:

Timing belt moduleIt offers a remarkable cost-performance ratio in scenarios requiring long travel distances and medium precision, such as medical logistics automatic doors (with travel distances exceeding 3 meters) and ICU drug delivery systems

Ball screw moduleIt is suitable for precise surgical instrument positioning (such as orthopedic navigation robots), but its 1500mm travel limit and high cost restrict its large-scale deployment

Linear motor moduleAlthough it boasts excellent speed and accuracy, its cost is 3-5 times that of a synchronous belt, making it only suitable for essential applications such as imaging equipment (e.g., CT scanner drive)


4、Analysis of application scenarios in the medical industry

DGE synchronous belt module has been deeply integrated into the core components of medical equipment:

Diagnostic equipment:In biochemical analyzers, the rapid transfer of sample racks between the reagent area and the detection area is achieved, with a speed of 5000mm/s significantly enhancing detection efficiency

treatment system:The multi-axis combined sliding platform of radiotherapy equipment (such as DGE orthogonal robot) controls the three-dimensional positioning of the radiation head

automated production line:On the medical consumable production line, multiple sets of DGE-25-TB modules form a gantry system, which completes the automatic retrieval, placement, and packaging of injection molded parts

Clean room equipment:The fully enclosed structure and low particle release characteristics make it suitable for use in ISO Class 5 clean environments such as automated cell culture workstations

technological evolution and cost controlThe dual-wheel drive of the Dingge DGE synchronous belt linear module has earned widespread recognition in the medical equipment field. It passes throughStructured lightweight design(aluminum alloy base)、Import substitution of core components(Continental belt/HIWIN guide rail)andmodular combination,While ensuring medical-grade precision and reliability, the manufacturing cost of the equipment is significantly reduced. With the development of smart healthcare, transmission solutions that combine performance and cost-effectiveness will become key enablers for the innovation of inclusive medical devices
