BenQ Medical

BenQ Medical Technology Corporation has manufactured operating room equipment in Taiwan for over three decades. Part of the BenQ Qisda Group, the company provides surgical tables, LED surgical lights, ultrasound systems, and integrated operating room solutions to hospitals in more than 50 countries.

Company Overview

Established in 1989 as Trident Medical Corp., the company rebranded to BenQ Medical Technology Corporation in June 2011 following its integration into the BenQ Qisda Group. Headquartered in Taipei, the company trades on the Taiwan OTC market under stock code 4116.TWO.

BenQ Medical’s product portfolio spans traditional operating room hardware and newer intelligent integration systems. The company accumulated over 30 years of experience in surgical table and surgical light manufacturing before expanding into smart operating room solutions. In 2018, BenQ Medical acquired K2 International Medical to strengthen its position in the medical consumables sector, particularly hemodialysis products.

The company maintains manufacturing facilities in Taiwan and has established a production base in mainland China. Products hold multiple international certifications including CE Mark, ETL, ISO9001, ISO13485, and GMP compliance.

Core Products

iQOR Integrated Operating Room System

iQOR represents BenQ Medical’s flagship intelligent solution, designed to modernize surgical environments through integrated control and connectivity. The second-generation iQOR platform incorporates 5G connectivity, 4K surgical imaging, medical equipment control interfaces, real-time video conferencing, and AI-powered surgical reporting. More than 100 iQOR installations serve hospitals across mainland China, enabling clinical teaching, remote consultation, and simplified surgical workflows.

Surgical Tables

BenQ Medical offers multiple surgical table series targeting different clinical specialties:

• Dr. Max 5800 Series: General-purpose electric hydraulic tables with versatile positioning capabilities
• Dr. Max 7000N Series: Ultra-low height tables optimized for neurosurgery, ENT, and seated surgeon procedures
• Dr. MAX 7000S Series: High-capacity tables with extended height range and tabletop slide functionality
• TriMax 650NS Series: Specialized tables for cardiovascular and neurosurgical procedures with 24-degree lateral tilt

LED Surgical Lights

The TriLite surgical light series features advanced LED technology with clinical-focused optical design:

• TriLite LS800/LS810 Series: Compact surgical lights with adjustable color temperature (3,500K-5,000K), IR-free cold light output, and integrated Full HD camera options
• TriLite LED S600 Series: Two-arm configuration with Auto Shadow Management (ASM) technology and Endo Light Mode for minimally invasive surgery
• DomeLUX Series: Ceiling-mounted lights with superior shadow control and depth of field capabilities

Technology & Innovation

BenQ Medical’s engineering focuses on several key areas:

Intelligent Integration: iQOR consolidates surgical imaging, equipment control, and communication systems into a unified interface, reducing infection risk by minimizing personnel in the operating room while maintaining situational awareness for all team members.

Optical Performance: TriLite surgical lights employ multi-layer optical lens arrays to deliver high Color Rendering Index (Ra >95, R9 optimized) while maintaining IR-free operation. This prevents tissue desiccation during prolonged procedures and reduces surgeon fatigue.

Ergonomic Design: Dr. Max 7000N Series tables achieve ultra-low positioning (530mm minimum height) allowing surgeons to perform procedures in seated positions—critical for neurosurgery and microsurgical applications requiring hours of sustained precision work.

Laminar Flow Compatibility: Open-design light heads minimize air turbulence in the surgical field, supporting sterile environments required by modern OR ventilation standards.

Market Presence

BenQ Medical has established Taiwan as its home market while building substantial international distribution. Products reach over 50 countries through direct sales and distributor partnerships. The company maintains particular strength in Asia-Pacific markets, with iQOR deployments concentrated in mainland China’s hospital sector.

Recent expansion includes a new manufacturing facility in China capable of producing surgical tables, pendants, surgical lights, and iQOR systems for the local market. This positions BenQ Medical to compete more directly with domestic Chinese manufacturers while leveraging its Taiwanese engineering heritage.

The company participates actively in medical trade exhibitions including Medical Taiwan, CMEF (China International Medical Equipment Fair), and regional specialty conferences.

Strategic Partnerships

In a notable development, BenQ Medical announced a strategic partnership with Brain Navi Biotechnology to introduce the NaoTrac neurosurgical navigation robot to the Chinese market. This collaboration aligns with Brain Navi’s 2025 globalization strategy and reflects BenQ Medical’s role as a distribution partner for advanced surgical robotics—complementing rather than competing with its core equipment business.
