Processing injection molded medical parts

What is Injection Molding for Medical Parts?

Injection molding is a widely used manufacturing process where molten plastic is injected into a mold cavity to create parts with precise dimensions, complex geometries, and high tolerances. In the medical field, injection molding is often used to produce parts made from biocompatible plastics and other materials that meet the required medical-grade specifications.

For medical parts, injection molding offers several benefits:

• High Precision: The ability to create parts with tight tolerances and intricate designs.
• Cost-Effective: Once the mold is created, large volumes of parts can be produced quickly and affordably.
• Repeatability: Injection molding ensures that each part is consistently manufactured with the same quality and precision.
• Material Flexibility: A wide range of materials, including medical-grade plastics like ABS, polycarbonate, PPSU, and PEEK, can be used in injection molding.

Types of Injection Molded Medical Parts We Process

1.Medical Device Housings

• We manufacture custom housings for medical devices such as patient monitors, diagnostic equipment, and infusion pumps. These housings protect sensitive electronics while maintaining the required level of biocompatibility and durability.

2.Surgical Instruments

• We process precision parts for surgical tools like scalpels, forceps, and scissors. Injection molding allows for the creation of parts with high-precision features and durable, ergonomic designs to ensure ease of use during surgical procedures.

3.3Implants and Prosthetics

• For the orthopedic and dental industries, we produce custom implants and prosthetic components. The biocompatible and non-toxic properties of the materials used in injection molding ensure that these parts are safe for implantation and provide long-lasting functionality.

4.Medical Packaging

• We produce custom packaging solutions for medical products, including blister packs, syringes, and medication bottles. The materials used in medical packaging are designed to protect the integrity of the contents while ensuring easy access for patients and healthcare professionals.

5.Disposable Medical Products

• We provide injection molded parts for disposable medical products, such as syringes, IV components, and needles. These parts must be produced with high precision to meet stringent safety and hygiene standards.

6.Microfluidic Devices

• We specialize in producing microfluidic devices used in diagnostics and research. These parts require complex designs and tight tolerances to manage the precise flow of liquids, often in applications like lab-on-a-chip devices.

Conclusion

For high-quality injection molded medical parts, we offer a range of custom solutions that meet the unique requirements of the healthcare industry. Whether you're designing surgical instruments, medical devices, or implantable components, our precision injection molding services deliver reliable, durable parts that perform in critical environments.
