Components of the Midas Rex Microsaws
Midas Rex Microsaws comprise precision blades, ergonomic handpieces, a versatile power console, and patented integrated irrigation.
The Precision Blades of Our Microsaws

Microsaws are primarily used for bone harvesting and grafting in fine bone procedures where precision control is paramount. Blades that wobble, bend, or flail can cause undesirable bone fracturing or a wider-than-desired kerf. Microsaws with excessive vibration also can lead to hand numbness and fatigue.
The perfect microsaw blade is a delicate balance between hardness and flexibility. Harder steel stays sharp longer and holds the cutting path better. But a blade that's too hard can snap; too soft, and it won’t hold its edge.
From the Brand You Trust Most
From the beginning, Medtronic committed to engineering the best microsaws on the market. Blade quality and design distinguishes Midas Rex® Microsaws from others. Our microsaws’ blades are manufactured to exacting standards for reliable performance you can trust.
Midas Rex Microsaws feature:
- Blades that are manufactured from the highest grade of stainless steel. The blades for our microsaws are made from modified 420 stainless steel. This superior grade of steel balances strength and flexibility, minimizing breakage and preventing premature dulling.
- Laser-cut blades with a cleaner, sharper edge. While other microsaws’ blades are stamped, Midas Rex Microsaws are laser-cut for sharper edges and ultimate precision.
- Ultra-thin blades that are less than 0.3 mm thick. Our blades are one-third thinner than others on the market to minimize cut width, yet the quality of the steel still keeps them strong.
- Minimal vibration. Our blades produce minimal vibration to reduce the likelihood of bone cracking and hand fatigue.
An Attention to Detail that Shows
- Broad variety of blades for many different procedures and multiple specialties
- Easy attachment and removal of blades
- Color-coded blades, handpieces, and connectors
- Tiny “arms” on oscillating blades that prevent them from falling during attachment
Ergonomic Handpieces for Maximum Control
Foot-Controlled Handpieces
Finger-Controlled Handpieces
With a textured grip and proper balance, Midas Rex® Microsaws rest in your hand and allow maximum control. We conducted extensive verification and validation testing to ensure that these electric microsaws offer reliability and performance you know you can trust.
Midas Rex Microsaws are available in sagittal, reciprocating, and oscillating handpieces with either foot or finger control.
Key Handpiece Features
- Minimal vibration to improve control, prevent cracking of bone, and reduce hand fatigue
- Weighted for maximum balance and stability
- Three foot-controlled and three finger-controlled handpieces
- Color-coded to match color-coded blades and connectors
- Extended grip for maintaining control and visibility
- Easier to hold
Our Microsaws Are IPC-Powered
The IPC System powers the Midas Rex Microsaws
The electric Midas Rex® Microsaws are powered by the Integrated Power Console (IPC® System), trusted by surgeons and OR staff worldwide. It’s the first multispecialty surgical power console from Medtronic for removing soft tissue, hard tissue, and bone during cranial, spinal, and ENT surgeries. The IPC System and its suite of application-specific products make it the most versatile surgical power console on the market.
IPC System: Simple. Versatile. Powerful.
- Powers up to four handpieces at a time
- Easy touchscreen menus for each handpiece
- Intuitive user interface
- IntelliFlow® remote control for irrigation
- Also powers these Medtronic electric surgical drills and handpieces:
Our Microsaws Offer Integrated Irrigation
Adjustable and extendable on-saw irrigation that stays in place
IntelliFlow remote control for adjusting irrigation from sterile field
Irrigation of the surgical site can help cool bone and improve visibility.
We offer patented, integrated irrigation for the Midas Rex® Microsaws with an adjustable locking nozzle that stays in place.
Plus, controlling irrigation from the surgical field is easy with our optional IntelliFlow® remote control for the IPC® System.
Integrated On-Saw Irrigation
- Adjustable and extendable nozzle directs flow precisely
- Once clipped to the handpiece, the nozzle stays where you put it
- IntelliFlow remote control enables convenient flow-rate changes
- Secure placement frees a hand for other uses, such as holding a retractor or suction
