Skull surgery trephine NLM series

neurosurgicalcraniotomyneurosurgery

Product overview Reusable cranial perforator from the NeuroLine series, developed and manufactured by EMD. The device is fully dismountable into four parts for simplified assembly/disassembly; all components are cleanable and sterilizable. Supplied with standard Hudson coupling. Autoclavable.

Unique advantages

• Multiple safety mechanisms designed to protect patient and operator during cranial perforation.
• Precise tip control: guiding tip reduces skidding and ensures accurate initiation of the perforation.
• Consistent drilling quality: specially developed cutting-edge geometry and simultaneous movement of drilling and cutting heads for reliable performance.
• Bone pad formation: the perforated bone pad protects the dura mater during trephination.
• Restartable operation: device can be stopped and restarted safely at any time to allow continuous surgical supervision.
• Universal fit: compatibility with standard Hudson end coupling for use with common high-speed motor drill trepan adapters and speed reducers.
• Reprocessing support: dedicated holder for storage and sterilization with pictogram-identified component locations; cutting edges protected to minimize handling damage.

Article number / size explanation

• Diameter of perforator external drill part • diameter of upper part of resulting hole
• Diameter of perforator internal drill part • diameter of lower part of resulting hole
• Minimum skull-bone thickness required for operation (overhang of internal drill part relative to external drill part)

Product range and compatibility NeuroLine cranial perforators are available in single-use and reusable versions. All reusable models feature the universal Hudson coupling to ensure compatibility with widely used high-speed motor drill trepan adapters and speed reducers.
