Jakarta, June 6, 2026 — Technological advancements in the field of surgery continue to drive hospitals to adopt systems capable of supporting healthcare services more efficiently, precisely, and sustainably. Amid growing demand for minimally invasive surgical procedures and the increasing complexity of clinical services, healthcare facilities require equipment that not only meets current needs but is also capable of evolving to keep pace with future changes. One innovation that addresses these needs is the Unidrive Select from Karl Storz, a multidisciplinary surgical motor system designed to support various specialties on a single, flexible platform.

Based on the “Power Anywhere – Unlimited Flexibility for Modern Surgical Motor Systems” concept, Unidrive Select introduces a new approach to managing surgical motor systems in the operating room. This device was developed using modular technology that allows hospitals to customize system functions through software licensing, enabling service upgrades without having to replace the entire unit. This approach provides flexibility in investment planning while helping hospitals prepare for long-term service needs.

Unidrive Select is designed to support a wide range of surgical specialties, including urology, gynecology, ENT, and neurosurgery. By using a single platform that can be configured to meet clinical needs, hospitals no longer need separate motor systems for each application. This concept simplifies the standardization of equipment in the operating room while supporting efficiency in medical asset management.

For healthcare facilities, using a modular system like Unidrive Select offers a number of strategic benefits. In addition to reducing the need for separate equipment investments, hospitals also have the flexibility to add software licenses as service needs evolve. Thus, the system can keep pace with technological advancements and procedural requirements without having to replace the main equipment. This flexibility is a key added value that supports the sustainability of medical technology investments.

Unidrive Select is also designed to create a more efficient workflow through integration with the Endomat Select Irrigation Pump using the KS Hive communication standard. This connectivity between devices allows the system to operate within a single, interconnected ecosystem, simplifying operations and supporting a smooth workflow in the operating room. This integration makes it easier for medical staff to perform various surgical procedures more effectively.

To enhance user comfort, Karl Storz has equipped the Unidrive Select with a variety of modern features, one of which is a wireless footswitch. This feature gives the operator the freedom to control the system without being hindered by cables in the treatment area. The workspace remains tidier, the operator enjoys greater mobility, and comfort during procedures is better maintained.

In terms of performance, the Unidrive Select is designed to operate motors and handpieces using parameters tailored to the specific application and instruments being used. This approach helps deliver consistent performance and supports a wide range of surgical procedures according to clinical needs. The combination of precision, flexibility, and ease of configuration enables this system to meet the demands of modern operating rooms that prioritize efficiency and technological integration.

More than just a surgical motor system, Unidrive Select is a technological investment designed to evolve alongside the needs of hospitals. Its modular design, total cost of ownership (TCO) efficiency, and ease of integration with the Karl Storz device ecosystem provide added value to healthcare facilities as they plan for the future development of their surgical services. With a single platform that can be continuously updated through software licensing, hospitals have a solution that is more adaptable to changing clinical needs.

For decades, Karl Storz has been recognized as one of the global leaders in the development of endoscopic technology and minimally invasive surgical equipment. In Indonesia, Advance Medicare Corpora is the sole distributor of Karl Storz, offering a variety of medical technology solutions to support healthcare services. In addition to providing the Karl Storz product portfolio, Advance Medicare Corpora also offers support in the form of product consultation, education, training, and guidance to healthcare professionals and healthcare facilities. With the introduction of Unidrive Select, hospitals now have access to a flexible, integrated surgical motor system that is ready to support the continuous advancement of modern surgical services.
