The load of the GCX guide rail for the A9 anesthesia machine is as follows:
CIS is mounted. The 12-inch arm accessory has the largest load (bending moment) among all arm
accessories recognized by Mindray, with a maximum load of 13.6 kg. Therefore, the force can be
calculated as follows:
Wmax = 13.6 kg × 304.8 mm = 4150 kgf.mm (30 lbf ft)
L (mm): maximum arm length
M (kg): load
