Electric medical beds are among the most widely used pieces of medical equipment in general wards, post-operative recovery rooms, healthcare and rehabilitation facilities, and home care settings. With a simple press of the controls, patients can independently adjust the bed height and the angles of the backrest and leg rest, allowing them to find a comfortable position that suits their needs at any time. The flexible adjustment of the bed's position helps to improve blood circulation, relieve localized pressure, and reduce the likelihood of pressure ulcers. For healthcare staff, the height-adjustable feature of electric medical beds allows the bed surface to be precisely positioned at the optimal working height, significantly reducing the need for repeated bending during care procedures. This minimizes the risk of occupational strain at source, while enhancing the efficiency of care and improving working comfort.

Key features and benefits
Medical-grade safety standards
The products strictly comply with international medical electrical equipment safety standards such as IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and IEC 60601-1-52. They are certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 management systems, as well as international certifications including CE, UL, KC, and RoHS, ensuring stable operation even under unexpected loads or operating conditions.
High load capacity and high protection level
● Linear actuators have a maximum load capacity of 8,000 N (thrust)
● Water resistance rating up to IP66 / IPX6, fully suited to the daily cleaning and disinfection requirements of healthcare facilities and home care environments
Intelligent care capabilities
● Bed exit alarm system: detects in real time whether the patient is in a recumbent position, effectively preventing the risk of falls
● Obstacle detection with retraction: the actuator automatically reverses direction upon encountering an obstacle during operation, preventing pinch injuries
● Patient weighing system: an embedded load cell module enables precise weighing while the patient is in a supine position, assisting healthcare staff in monitoring the patient's recovery progress
● Position memory: stores frequently used positions for one-touch restoration, enhancing the convenience of daily care
● Multi-level permission management for the controls: grants different control permissions according to the usage scenario, balancing the dual needs of patient autonomy and healthcare staff supervision
Silent operation, enhancing the patient's hospital experience
Low-noise design is a core requirement in healthcare settings. Our linear actuators maintain excellent low-noise performance even under full load, creating a quiet environment for patient treatment and rehabilitation.
