With our comprehensive portfolio of Medical Grade MT materials, we offer a very high variety of materials in injection molding in medical technology and thus excellent choices for individual applications.
In addition, we offer extensive injection molding materials expertise for an application-specific material development with in-house compounding.
Overmolding, insert molding, multi-component injection molding, injection molding MuCell®-technology can offer flexible solutions for the integration of functions as well as the production of medical assemblies. Through various printing and marking technologies (e.g. laser marking), surface treatments, deburring technologies (e.g. blasting), custom requirements regarding haptics, optics and traceability are met.
For decades, we have been developing and manufacturing durable medical and surgical instruments with specific requirements for cleaning, disinfection or sterilisation, chemical resistance and the necessary mechanical strength, surface quality and freedom from burrs using plastic injection molding and as assembled subassemblies.
All these applications place the highest demands on tolerances, feel and appearance of the medical plastic injection molded parts. The low weight of the plastic instruments contributes to gentle handling even during longer periods of use.
Compared to instruments made of metal, such components allow X-ray transparency, are non-magnetic, lighter and can also be colour-coded. In addition to cutlery and applications in the operating theatre, such medical injection molded components are used in neurosurgery, e.g. for head mounts or also as trial implants.
We realise the complex shapes and design geometries required for this with high precision and efficiency using our injection molding technologies.
Our injection molded medical products are used, among other things, in diagnostic and operating theatre equipment, where they take over important mechanical functions, such as dry lubrication, reduce wear and, of course, ensure the necessary mechanical strength.
Long-term resistance to X-rays and continuous operating temperatures of 260 °C, e.g. for computer tomography (CT), can be achieved with injection mouded components made of high-performance medical plastics.
We can injection mold our own thermoplastic composites into medical components that are used, for example, in operating theatre robots.
In medical technology, some components also require individual machining to achieve special contours and accuracies. Injection molding of blanks significantly increases the material variety and selection options. In addition, material losses and thus costs can be significantly reduced through near-net-shape injection molding.
We have many years of experience in the production of such blanks and can also reliably injection mold larger wall thicknesses without cavities.
We offer completion by CNC machining as well as assembly of subassemblies from a single source
