Surgical tool production as BalTec application

Surgical Tools

WHAT
The pliers are to be assembled by means of a permanent joint.

WHY
However, the plier elements must under no circumstances be subject to deformation as a result to the required force during the forming process.

HOW
Due to the gentle radial forming force and its process monitoring, plier elements can be produced in the highest quality so that they move play-free after forming.

Facts and Figures

Reference No. BCHD1029
Forming Process Radial
Material Various high-quality stainless steels, inconel and gold-alloyed materials
Geometry Ø1.5 x 4mm
Shank type Full rivet / drilled
Rivet head geometry crown
Forming Tool Standard flat profile
Equipment RN151 / RN181
Application Area Production of medical tools made of high-quality stainless steel, inconel and gold-alloyed materials such as pliers, surgery, surgical tools, clamps and more
Process Control HPP-25
User Benefits: Process

Due to the radial rosette movement, the desired head shape can be achieved very gently with controlled forming of the rivet. The workpiece holders can also be kept at a simple design, as there are practically no lateral forces during forming.

User Benefits: Economic

Even small series up to medium series sizes can be manufactured individually at a manual workstation with the highest precision.
