First German robot-assisted OP technology from Thuringia

The company “avateramedical GmbH” developed the first German system for robot-assisted, minimally invasive surgery (MIC). After successful CE-certification, the company is now entering the European market with its “German robot.”

Exactly tailored to the needs of future users, this new generation of robots from Thuringia enables precise keyhole operations (laparoscopies) with a maximum of safety for patients and the best possible comfort for users. The highly innovative system was developed in close cooperation with surgeons and OP teams. The construction of a campus with production facilities for series production is to start this year, and the company has chosen Ilmenau for this purpose. Here in Thuringia – traditionally well positioned in microsystems technology – the company finds the best conditions as well as the required highly qualified specialists, including engineers and software developers.
