Surgical instruments
Surgical tools such as scalpels, scissors, clamps, and forceps must be manufactured with the utmost care.
This applies particularly to instruments for laparoscopic procedures, prosthetic implants and implantable devices.
Precision in production is crucial, as the quality and reliability of the instruments have a direct impact on the outcome and the health of the patient.
Superior materials
Metals like stainless steel, copper, titanium, cobalt chrome, gold, platinum and others are commonly used in the production of such medical products due to their high durability, corrosion resistance, and strength.
These materials also minimize the risk of allergic reactions and facilitate easy cleaning, making frequent sterilization of instruments possible, which is crucial for maintaining a sterile environment in healthcare facilities.
We are able to form a variety of materials depending on the specifications and application.
High-Precision Production
Modern manufacturing techniques, such as cold forming with state-of-the-art riveting and other cold forming machines, contribute significantly to the high precision of surgical and medical instrument production. Intelligent process control and monitoring offer exceptional accuracy to ensure functionally reliable of instruments, manufactured exactly to the required specifications.
Minimally invasive surgery demands for instruments to become longer, thinner or smaller and require precise manufacturing of micro-joints.
The completely computer controlled BalTec cold forming device has been implemented in the production of a variety of medical products, with accuracy in the micron range and work piece diameter below 1 mm.
The control system "HPPi" allows control of the computer controlled BalTec servo-riveter ELECTRIC via any Windows PC on site or via remote access.
Quality Control
Every surgical tool undergoes stringent quality inspection during and after production, before it is ready for use.
These checks likely include surface finish, functionality, dimensional compliance, cleanliness and others.
The role of accuracy while manufacturing surgical tools extends beyond technical necessity; it is a critical factor in patient safety. The use of faulty or inaccurate tools and devices can lead to complications, prolonged operating times. This diminishes the chances of a successful surgery and recovery, underscoring the urgency of maintaining high manufacturing standards.
Therefore, the investment in precise, state-of-the-art equipment and correct process for manufacturing surgical instruments is not just a matter of technicality, but a crucial step in fostering patients’ confidence thanks to the quality of medical care you offer them.
