In May 2022, the epidemic broke out in Shanghai. In order to prevent and control the epidemic, Shanghai had to press the pause button, shut down production and remain silent. 

     And the Shanghai epidemic has not only had a serious impact on itself, many domestic provinces and cities and even overseas countries have had a serious impact. 

     It is reported that GE has a factory in Shanghai, and the GE plant in Shanghai production, leading to the world's CT contrast media shortage. Since mid-may, the MD Andson Cancer Center Radiology Center, Cleveland Clinic, Kaiser Permanente in Oakland, and the Mayo Clinic have all reported shortages of CT contrast media. Contrast agent is an important medicament for medical imaging equipment such as CT scan. The common preparations are IOHEXANOL, Iophorol, ioxanol and so on. A particular shortage is Iohexol, a chemical widely used in cancer patients, heart patients and almost all patients who need x-rays and CT scans. 

     Although Shanghai has gradually resumed production, but in the short term this phenomenon can not be eased. When it comes to CT machines, linear motors have been integrated into one of the actual cases. CT generally consists of a scanner, x-ray generator, data acquisition system, data processing system, scanning bed, console, etc. . Linear Motor is used as a scanning bed drive device. 

      Kunshan Tong Mao Electronics Co. , Ltd. has been cultivating the field of linear motors for more than ten years. Tong Mao Manufacturing Linear Motors adopt European and n technical standards and processing techniques, and are now widely used in various medical equipment, such as Wuhan Woyi, Wuxi General, Italy O-TWO are our customers with Mao.
