HF generators are used in nearly all surgical interventions in an OR. The ARC is a modular electronic device that can be produced in several variants to fulfill individual needs for specific surgeries such as urologic or orthopedic interventions. The interface is also modular and can be adapted easily to the several variants.

The sockets (1 up to 4 possible around the interface) where different instruments can be connected are showing the settings exactly in the area were the instrument is connected. If only one is connected the whole interface is used, if two half-half and so on. This fluent animated interface makes user interaction much more intuitive compared to all other HF generators. The surfaces are smooth, robust and without any gaps to make the housing easy and quick to clean.
