What is the weight capacity of a veterinary surgical table?

HQS Medical's small-animal electric tables support up to 150 kg, suitable for all common companion-animal breeds. Large-animal equine tables with hydraulic lifts are rated up to 600 kg. Always verify the rated load before purchasing if your practice regularly treats giant breeds or large livestock.

What is the difference between electric and hydraulic veterinary tables?

Electric tables use a motorized column for height adjustment — quieter, more precise, and operated via a foot pedal or remote. Hydraulic tables use a foot pump to adjust height, which is more durable in harsh environments and requires no electrical connection. Both types support manual tilting for patient positioning. HQS Medical offers both configurations.

Does the veterinary surgical table have a heated surface?

Yes. HQS Medical offers optional heated tabletop inserts that maintain surface temperature at 37–40 °C, helping prevent hypothermia during long procedures, particularly in small patients. The heating element is waterproof and can be disinfected with standard veterinary surface disinfectants.

What tilt positions does the table support?

Our veterinary operating tables support Trendelenburg (head-down), reverse-Trendelenburg (head-up), left and right lateral tilt up to 20–30 degrees, and a flat position. These positions improve surgical access for abdominal, orthopedic, and thoracic procedures. Some models also feature a V-trough inset for dorsal recumbency positioning.

How do I clean and disinfect a stainless-steel veterinary table?

Wipe down the surface with a hospital-grade disinfectant (quaternary ammonium or accelerated hydrogen peroxide) after each procedure. Avoid bleach-based products on stainless steel as they can cause pitting over time. The drainage hole and channel should be flushed daily. Lubricate adjustment mechanisms annually with food-safe lubricant.

Can I get a custom veterinary table configuration?

Yes. HQS Medical supports OEM and ODM requests including custom dimensions, branded finishes, special accessory rail placement, integrated IV pole mounts, and custom table-top materials. Minimum order quantities apply for custom builds; contact us to discuss your specifications.
