OTC18T Tube Crane

Premium overhead ceiling mount with LCD touchscreen with vertical tracking

Superior Mobility

The OTC18T tube crane highlights an advanced, technologist-friendly 10.4″ touchscreen console providing seamless system integration by displaying tube angulation, SID values, and generator control options. Color-coded movement identification buttons provide optimal precision when setting up views.

Peaceful and effortless movements are controlled by an electromagnetic braking system enabling fast and secure readjustments of the tube head. Its five-tier telescoping column delivers exceptional vertical movement of 71” (180 cm), capable of performing complete head-to-toe radiographic procedures including upright weight-bearing and recumbent tabletop exams.

Intuitive Control

A conveniently placed all-lock release sensor is located just above the bottom section of the tube head handle. This sensor enables rapid manual positioning by allowing the user to grab the bottom handle to unlock the system and make swift adjustments.

Vertical and SID Tracking

Synchronized motorized movement of the tube crane’s vertical axis maintains precise centering between the X-ray tube and the image receptor. Available functions include vertical tracking to the wall stand, SID tracking to the elevating table, or horizontally positioned wall stand. The result is quick, accurate alignment without the extra time and effort needed to make additional manual adjustments.
