In recent weeks Odu debuted as an exhibitor at the trade fair Compamed in Düsseldorf. The electro-medical market is a strategic target market of primary importance for the German brand, and the fair was an opportunity to present numerous new products that ensure reliable and secure connections in the most diverse areas of medical technology.
For this specific field, very special requirements need to be met, sometimes even with unconventional solutions. Odu is able to develop them together with customers, taking into account the respective applications. With modern testing procedures conducted in in-house testing laboratories, Odu's experts test newly developed products and provide customers with detailed test reports. In addition, certification of new products according to relevant standards by Certifying Bodies is guaranteed, having previously carried out the same tests in the company's in-house laboratories.
Cable assembly and silicone overmolding
With cable assembly and the ability to overmold silicone in its own factories, ODU's customers receive complete interconnect systems from a single supplier that meet all the requirements of the electromedical industry. With numerous R&D personnel with expertise specific to the medical industry, ODU consistently succeeds in creating innovative products and providing a competitive advantage to its customers.
Fiber optic solutions for fast data transmission
In the field of medical robotics, issues such as medical device networking and high data rates are becoming increasingly important. Odu presented its portfolio of fiber-optic connection systems at Compamed, which ensure maximum speed and reliability of data transmission.
Consideration of medical technology standards and laws
Standards applicable to electromedical equipment, such as IEC 60601-1, are always taken into account during the development of Odu products. This significantly reduces the engineering effort for equipment manufacturers and ensures compliance with the Standards. In addition, with the entry into force of theMedical Devices Regulation (MDR), additional requirements will be imposed on manufacturers of electromedical equipment to market them. This new regulation is intended to fill in some of the gaps in the previously existing Medical Devices Directive, and thus increase and ensure the safety of patients and healthcare professionals.
