What is the Marathon M5 Micromotor Set
The Marathon M5 Micromotor Set is a powerful, professional-grade motorized handpiece and control unit intended for precision procedures such as FUE hair transplant, dental procedures, cosmetic surgery, or nail-salon work. It is part of a line of “Marathon” micromotors — tools widely used for delicate, high-precision cutting, drilling, or graft extraction work.

⚙️ Technical Specifications & Features
Speed Range: 0 to 35,000 rpm — variable continuous-speed control enables smooth acceleration and precise speed adjustment suitable for delicate graft extraction or surgical work.
Torque & Power: The unit is rated at 45 W — enough to maintain stable performance even under continuous or prolonged use.
Dual Voltage (110-240V): This makes the unit compatible with UK/Europe and many international power systems — useful for clinics that may move or for importing from abroad.
Direction Control: Forward and reverse rotation — helpful in different procedural tasks, whether extracting, cutting, or adjusting.
Foot-Switch ON/OFF: Enables hands-free control of the motor — beneficial during surgical procedures where manual control is required to be minimal.
Overload Protection: Protects the motor and handpiece from damage under excessive load, which is important for safety and longevity.
No Excessive Heat After Long Operation: The design helps avoid overheating even when used for extended durations — a key factor during long surgeries or transplant sessions.
Compact & Portable: With approximate dimensions W120 × D120 × H85 mm, and weight ~1.3 kg — manageable for clinic tables, portable enough for transport if needed.
Complete Unit: Comes with the motor unit, handpiece, and necessary controls — ready to use without needing additional purchases.
Multifunctional Use: Suitable not only for hair-transplant (FUE) but also for dental work, cosmetic procedures, and nail-salon or prosthetic tasks — offering flexibility for multi-specialty clinics.
Use & Benefits in a UK / International Clinic Context
Because the device supports dual voltage (110–240 V), clinics in the UK can use the unit without complex power converters — only plug-adapter compatibility may be required, making it convenient for import or direct use. Guru hair instruments
For hair-transplant clinics, the Marathon M5 provides the precision, torque, and stability needed for FUE procedures, where graft extraction and handling require delicate and consistent performance. Its ability to run smoothly at high RPMs while maintaining torque ensures that punches or drills operate cleanly — which helps minimize graft trauma and improve outcomes.
For dental or cosmetic clinics, the variable speed and direction, overload protection, and foot-switch control make it an efficient tool for procedures requiring control, cleanliness, and reliability.
In clinics that perform multiple types of procedures (e.g. hair transplant + cosmetic + dental), the multifunctional nature of the M5 makes it a versatile investment — reducing the need to maintain separate specialized devices for each domain.
Its compact size and portability are particularly advantageous for smaller clinics, mobile setups, or clinics that may need to relocate or travel with equipment.
