Laser manufacturing technology is increasingly used in the field of medical devices. It has the characteristics of high precision, high efficiency and low loss, and plays an important role in the design, manufacturing and testing of medical devices. Let’s take an in-depth look at the application of laser manufacturing technology in medical devices.
1. Application of laser cutting technology in the history of medical devices
Laser cutting is a commonly used technology in laser manufacturing. It can cut individual materials into required sizes and shapes with high cutting accuracy and smooth cutting edges. In the field of medical device manufacturing, laser cutting technology is widely used to manufacture various medical devices, such as stent, catheters, implants, etc. For example, nylon stents and stainless steel stents in stent manufacturing and nickel-titanium laser cutting, fracture plates and joint replacements in implant manufacturing all require the help of laser cutting technology.
2. Application of laser welding technology in medical devices
Laser welding technology can fuse two objects together through thermal processing of laser beams. Compared with other welding technologies, it has the advantages of precise welding position, no oxide layer, small welding seam, and small heat-affected zone. In the field of medical device manufacturing, laser welding technology is widely used to manufacture various medical devices, such as thermal components, micro-devices, precision instruments, etc. For example, in the manufacturing of micro-devices, it is often necessary to precisely connect tiny components. At this time, laser welding technology plays an important role.
3. Application of laser marking technology in medical devices
Laser marking technology is a method of applying a laser beam directly to the surface of a material to perform oxidation, reduction, carbonization, discoloration and other reactions to create good logos, barcodes or QR codes. In the field of medical device manufacturing, laser marking technology is also widely used to manufacture various medical devices, such as springs, parts and markings on the surface of the device. For example, medical devices that are close to patients often have high safety requirements. Laser marking technology can help manufacturers label products for easy tracking and auditing.
4. Application of laser lithography technology in medical devices
Laser lithography technology is a technology that uses laser beams to etch photoresist to create patterns or graphics. It is mainly used in the manufacturing field of semiconductor equipment. However, laser lithography technology and etching service is increasingly used in the field of medical device manufacturing, such as the manufacturing of chips and microfluidic mounts, and the etching of skin bumps. For example, for some micro-instruments such as endoscopes with specific shapes, laser lithography technology can produce precise concave and convex shapes, thereby improving manual operation accuracy and the effectiveness of the instrument.
BE-CU.COM：China Best Medical Prototype Laser Cutting Factory
To sum up, laser manufacturing technology is widely used in the field of medical device manufacturing and plays an important role in improving production efficiency, manufacturing quality and device accuracy. At the same time, laser manufacturing technology also has its own unique advantages in medical device testing, repair and upgrading, providing strong support for the production and maintenance of medical devices. It is believed that as laser manufacturing and rapid prototyping technology continues to develop, it will play an increasingly important role in the field of medical devices.
Be-Cu Rely on laser-based welding, cutting, marking, and drilling machines for high-precision MDM in diverse metals and plastics. Be-Cu uses six nitinol wire struts for each Harmony transcatheter pulmonary valve (TPV).
Laser processing has become a fundamental manufacturing step for many new products. As such, Be-Cu continues to develop and invest in laser processing technologies to meet the ever-changing needs of new product development. When we cannot customize standard equipment to meet our customer needs, we build our own!
Laser cutting is fast, flexible and cost-effective while providing a considerably better-finished result than other processes. In industries where precision is a high priority and quality is essential, it can be a tremendous production asset. It is a critical process needed for the manufacture of complex surgical device components.
Be-Cu’s approach to laser cutting is one that involves customization of the standard available equipment offering to optimize the capability for surgical devices. This means our Laser Cutting Medical Parts equipment has been customized for higher precision motion control versus of the shelf equipment. It also means that the specific material handling capability for feeding specialized materials for laser cutting have also been customized, such as automated coil feeding of flat stock and autoloading of tubing materials.
