FIRST CLASS
MEDICAL LIGHTS
GO BY THE NAME OF –
DR. MACH
Doctors worldwide operate, diagnose and treat patients with the aid of med
ical lights from Dr. Mach. For a very good reason: No other company offers a
detailed portfolio of this kind under one roof. No other company has such a
wealth of experience in the production and application of medical lights. And
no other company offers such quality and reliability. Dr. Mach was founded
75 years ago and today is still what it always has been: A specialised fami
ly business with unique know-how. With ultramodern machinery and a well-
trained and skilled workforce from various specialist fields, we develop and
manufacture at our headquarters on the outskirts of Munich. All of our lights
are designed and produced in Germany and dispatched from our headquar
ters. This, along with our endeavours to put the best lights at the disposal of
doctors, is undoubtedly the reason why our lights are amongst the best in the
world and are to be found in operating theatres in Montreal, Berlin or Kuala
Lumpur – and right across the world, to be concise.

Quality in numbers
Quality can be expressed in numbers and dates. In 75 years we have created
and accomplished a huge amount. We have held hundreds of thousands of
talks and equally as many consultations. We have had tens of thousands of
meetings in which customer wishes and product improvements were con
sidered. And we have equipped ten thousand doctors, practices and hospitals
with modern lights – on all of the earth’s continents, including Antarctica.

It’s a matter of concentration, experience, perfection and millimetres.
It’s all about 100% reliance and not wasting any of one’s attention. It’s
about being able to accurately recognise tissue, structures and colour.
It’s about having the perfect light during the operation. For the light is
good only if it is ideal without the surgeon constantly needing to make
adjustments. Medical lights from Dr. Mach are therefore optimally
matched to the situation and needs during an operation. Easy to
handle, perfect in function, absolutely reliable and long-lasting.
As a result, OT-lights from Dr. Mach ensure that surgeons
worldwide are able to concentrate on what matters:
preserving health and saving lives.
“Besides the
illumination, I appreciate
features such as
shadow management,
extraordinary depth
illumination and un
complicated handling.
They allow me to con
centrate on what I am
best at: operate.”
Prof. Dr. med. Joachim Müller
ENT surgeon
Cascade system:
Various lens types create vertical focusing of the light
depth. This means: With increasing depth of the operating
field, the light no longer needs to be re-adjusted manually.
Shadow management:
Should the movements of the surgeon
block the light and thereby create shad
ows in the wound area, this is compen
sated immediately by an increase in the
light emission of other LEDs – hence
there are no shadows. As a result, the
light field is always thoroughly illumi
nated during all movements.
Video management:
An HD or 4K camera which may optionally be
integrated enables operations to be filmed.
Thanks to high depth definition and autofocus,
razor-sharp images are always possible – ideal
for training purposes and documentation.

Design
Aesthetics meets ergonomics meets high tech. Our OT-
lights are designed to be optimally functional, handled with
maximum convenience and radiate minimal heat.
Handle
By virtue of its asymmetric position, the Dr. Mach handle
allows the wound field to be illuminated optimally. In
addition, beside the focusing a second setting can be
controlled with the sterile area of the handle.
Laser pointer
An optional fine laser dot defines the centre of the light field
and thereby aids optimal alignment of the light field to the
wound area.

Outstanding depth illumination
One of the highlights of the new Mach LED 6MC and Mach LED 8MC is the cascade
system. Different lens types are used in this system. These lenses have their focus
ing at 70, 100 and 130 cm. As a result, a vertical focusing of the light beam through
out the depth of the wound canal can be achieved. Thus the surgeon no longer needs
to manually re-adjust the light when the depth of the operating field increases.
Large focusing range
The size of the light field can be varied by turning the sterilisable handle. The
focusable light beam allows spot illumination of deepest wound channels with high
light intensity and exact matching of the light field diameter to the surgical situation.
The focusing is achieved by means of mechanical (optional) and electronic light field
adjustment. The brightness of the light field remains constant.
Automatic shadow management
A further innovation is the shadow management, which is rendered possible by nu
merous sensors in the light. Any cluster that has its light disturbed by the surgeon is
turned off. At the same time, the other light clusters increase in intensity in order
to compensate for the shadow. Even if the surgeon changes position, the light field
remains evenly illuminated without the need to move the light manually. The lux
remain constant.

on the heavy central axis
The diverse features of the LED 6MC and LED 8MC puts them amongst the most
modern OT-lights on the market. Every characteristic and functionality is aimed
at giving surgeons worldwide the best possible prerequisites for a successful
operation.
Almost perfect colour rendition
With almost perfect colour rendition values of Ra = 98 and R9 (red) = 99, you can
easily discern the finest colour nuances in tissue. To also recognise the different
red tones of the wound area, an exact rendition of the red colour range is essential.
Rendering index R9 (red) = 99 means the surgeon recognises details much more
easily. The colour spectrum of the wound area appears natural with rich contrast.
The OT-light is also noticeably more comfortable for the eyes.The colour spectrum
of the wound area appears natural with rich contrast. The OT-light is also noticeably
more comfortable for the eyes.
Antibacterial coating
For maximum hygiene in the operating theatre, the new generation of surgical lights
have a closed, easy-to-clean surface. In addition, they have an antimicrobial coating
that prevents the growth of microorganisms and thus helps to avoid infections.
Optimal flow properties
The shapes of the housings are aerodynamic and thus ideally suitable for
laminar-flow systems (climatic ceilings).

Design
Aesthetics meets ergonomics
meets high tech. Our OT-lights are
designed to be optimally functional,
handle with maximum convenience
and radiate minimal heat.
Handle
By virtue of its asymmetric position,
the Dr. Mach handle allows the
wound field to be illuminated
optimally. Rotating the handle
focuses the light field. It’s sterile
area can also be used to adjust the
light field diameter mechanically
(LED 300 DF SC) or the colour
temperature (LED 300 MC).
Video
All of the LED 300 series lights
come with camera preparation
as standard (except the central
spotlight option). Thus an HD
camera can be retrofitted at any
time.

Excellent colour rendition
With excellent colour rendition values of Ra = 97 and R9 (red) = 97, you can easily
discern the finest colour nuances in tissue. To also recognise the different red tones
of the wound area, an exact rendition of the red colour range is essential. Rendering
index R9 (red)=97 means the surgeon recognises details much more easily. The colour
spectrum of the wound field appears natural and contrast-rich. The OT-light is also
noticeably more comfortable for the eye.
Facetted multi-lens system
A multitude of computer-calculated faceted lenses guarantees homogeneity and
lowest shadiness in the light field. Separately arranged optical systems, each with one
LED module, generate their own light field and thereby intensify the contrast effect of
the OT-light.
Merging of light fields
When the sterilisable handle is turned, the three LED clusters each containing 12
lenses swivel. The separate light fields can be bundled, depending on the working
distance, and merged into a single light field.
Focusing
The size of the separate LED clusters can be varied by turning the adjusting ring
on the sterilisable handle (LED 300DF SC). This allows spot illumination of deepest
wound channels with high light intensity and exact matching of the light field diame
ter to the surgical situation.

Cool light
The use of LED modules reduces the radiated heat to a minimum. There is no
build-up of heat under The OT light. The area around the surgeon’s head remains
cool.
Aerodynamic design
The shapes of the housings are aerodynamic and thus ideally suitable for laminar-
flow systems (climatic ceilings).
Easy maintenance
With just a few steps the light housing can be opened to gain access to all of the sys
tem components. Due to their modularity all components can be easily exchanged.
The housings are easy to clean.
Photobiological safety
The requirements of the photobiological safety standard DIN EN 62471 are met and
so there is no risk for the human eye even during very long and intensive use of the
OT-light.
