LBR Med: a collaborative robot for medical applications

The sensitive LBR Med robot has been adapted to meet specific medical requirements and is perfectly suited for a wide range of assistance systems in medical technology on account of its human-robot collaboration capability.

One-of-a-kind robotic component for integration into a medical product

From diagnostics to treatment and surgical interventions – the LBR Med stands out as a perfect assistant for diverse tasks in the field of healthcare. The sensitive seven-axis lightweight robot is flexible and easy to integrate into medical products for various medical activities. With its responsive sensors, comprehensive safety precautions, hygiene-optimized surfaces and a controller designed for direct collaboration with the human operator, it is ideally suited to applications in medical technology. M oreover, the robotic component makes it much easier and quicker for manufacturers of medical devices to develop products and also to get them approved, because the LBR Med is certified in accordance with the internationally recognized CB Scheme.

The versatile robot for assistance tasks in the healthcare sector

The LBR Med robot that is integrated into a medical product facilitates interaction between the medical robot and the physician and patient.

Collaborate robotics provides unique advantages in the medical environment and will continue to impact future use cases that complement the healthcare teams. This technology allows the physician or therapist to focus on pre-operative planning and patient monitoring while the robot performs the strenuous tasks which require precision and above all sensitivity.
