Tripod

Optimal rotation

This tripod for surgical microscopes rotates smoothly, thanks to a so-called AB-slide. For our new dental tripod, we had to develop a new slide, since existing systems, with two linear guides and a spindle, were too big. The problem was solved when one of the two linear guides was replaced by a compact drylin® trapezoidal spindle.
