Dental Power Supplies Overview
At Emerson Network Power - Embedded Power, our engineers have been designing and developing power supply products for the dental market for over 35 years. Our products have helped pave the way for advancements in a wide variety of dental applications, including infusion pump controls, x-ray machines, gamma imaging systems and MRI scanners.
Opportunities
- The global dental equipment and consumables market is growing at a rate of nearly 7% per annum, and is estimated to be worth $26 billion by 2016.
- The principal driver behind the global dental equipment market is the advancement in technologies available to dentists for treating their patients.
- The U.S. dental equipment market is worth $2.4 billion (2007 figure).
- The main growth areas are the U.S. and Europe.
- The fastest-growing sectors are lasers, digital radiography, intra-oral cameras and CAD/CAM systems.
Given that designing modern high-efficiency AC-DC power supplies is a craft in itself, and that dental equipment has to undergo strict compliance testing, most designers nowadays elect to use standard commercially available medical power supplies, or seek the help of a specialist power supply company to create a customized unit. Using power supplies that are already pre-approved to the EN60601-1 safety standard helps dental equipment manufacturers speed compliance testing of their own products, and minimizes the risk of them encountering unexpected development problems outside their own area of expertise, which might negatively impact launch targets.
