Why was The FOCUS is a microprocessor controlled intra-oral recalled?
Instrumentarium Dental has delivered a number of FOCUS 3.0 Intraoral X-ray units in November 2013 with a potential flaw in the mounting hardware. A number of wall mount units were delivered with FOCUS X-ray machines that had not been properly welded at our supplier. As a result of the incomplete welding operation, the wall mount unit on the FOCUS X-ray unit may not properly support the unit as expected, which could cause the unit to drift. Depending on the extent of the shortened or missing welds, there is also a possibility that the wall mount unit will fail to support the weight of the unit, resulting in the FOCUS X-ray unit falling unexpectedly from its mounted position.
