CC6: a High-Performance Medical Saw Tailored to Orthopaedic Needs
The CC6 plaster saw from DeSoutter Medical is a medical device designed to meet the needs of hospital departments, clinics and specialist orthopaedic practices. Used for removing plaster casts, it operates at low voltage thanks to its dedicated PS6 power supply unit, ensuring reliable and safe performance. With a total weight of approximately 2.36 kg (850 g for the saw and 1.51 kg for the power supply), it remains compact and easy to handle in a demanding medical environment. Its robust construction and ergonomic design make it an effective tool for practitioners who have to perform repetitive and precise movements on different types of plaster casts.
Ergonomics, Comfort and Safety for the Practitioner and Patient
The CC6 has been designed to optimise the user experience and patient comfort. Its 850 g handle, with its contoured and balanced design, ensures excellent grip and reduces wrist fatigue during prolonged use. Its smooth contours facilitate handling and guarantee ideal positioning during cutting. With a noise level limited to 68 dB(A), the saw also contributes to a quieter environment, reducing patient anxiety, particularly in paediatrics. Its dual speed setting (11,800 or 16,000 cpm) allows it to be adapted to both thin plaster casts and thicker plaster bodies, offering versatility and efficiency in all circumstances.
A Medical Device that Complies with International Standards
The CC6 saw is powered by the PS6, a low-voltage power supply unit delivering 22/29 Vdc at a frequency of 50–60 Hz. This assembly complies with international medical safety standards, such as EN60601-1, ensuring use in accordance with clinical standards. Thanks to this combination of technical reliability, regulatory compliance and ease of use, the CC6 is a benchmark solution for healthcare professionals. It is an essential piece of equipment for orthopaedic care, ensuring precision, safety and efficiency when removing plaster casts.
