DDD-Diagnostic (X3D) Trusts HDD for Critical Gamma Camera Applications
DDD-Diagnostic A/S, located in Copenhagen, Denmark, is a world leader in the design and development of gamma camera systems used in nuclear medicine. Known for their Danish design and quality, DDD has become a market leader in nuclear cardiology, providing innovative solutions to hospitals, imaging centers, and clinics globally. As an OEM manufacturer, DDD partners with major international companies to supply cutting-edge diagnostic imaging equipment worldwide.
Challenge
For their advanced gamma camera systems, DDD required a highly reliable, compact servomotor that could deliver high torque while maintaining a low noise level. Given that their systems are distributed globally, minimizing service and maintenance was also a priority for DDD, ensuring their customers across different continents could rely on long-term, uninterrupted performance.
The Need for Compact, Reliable Performance
When DDD required a high-torque, low-noise servomotor to integrate into their gamma camera systems, they turned to HDD Sweden AB. The ultra-compact size and high-performance capabilities of HDD’s Solid Shaft servomotors made them the perfect choice. Reliability was a key factor for DDD, as their products are shipped to various continents, making it essential to reduce service and maintenance for their customers.
After evaluating several options, DDD chose HDD’s Solid Shaft servomotors to meet their demanding criteria. The servomotors offered the perfect balance of ultra-compact design, high performance, and durability. HDD’s servomotors also aligned with DDD’s goal of reducing maintenance and service requirements for their customers.
Jakob Mouridsen, CCO of DDD, states: “CorCam, our dedicated Cardiac SPECT system, is the primary product where we use HDD’s motors. The compact and reliable HDD servomotors have proven to be the perfect match for our high-quality systems.”
HDD Solid Shaft Servomotors: Compact Powerhouses
HDD’s Solid Shaft servomotors combine an ultra-compact size with outstanding performance. Available in three different versions, these motors feature a 92 mm frame/flange size with standard speeds of 3000 rpm and high speeds of 6000 rpm. For applications requiring greater strength, HDD also offers a larger 140 mm frame/flange size with a speed of 3000 rpm. Despite their compact size, the Solid Shaft motors deliver high torque, making them one of the most dynamic solutions on the market. Their low weight also contributes to a lighter overall system design.
Admin Ajkunic, CEO of DDD-Diagnostic A/S, shared his thoughts on the partnership and products: “I have nothing but positive things to say about our partnership and HDDs motors have more than delivered with outstanding performance and quality on top of their very compact size.”
Performance Feedback
DDD’s staff are particularly impressed by the consistent performance of the HDD servomotors. Jakob Mouridsen shares additional feedback: “Small, powerful, and reliable motor package.” “Low noise level.” “Compact and dependable.” “Low maintenance.”
The Results
By choosing HDD’s Solid Shaft servomotors, DDD has been able to ensure smooth, quiet, and reliable operation in their gamma camera systems, offering their clients cutting-edge technology with reduced maintenance needs.
