View commonly asked questions from individuals.
Medical
Abrasion processing is critical processes used to achieve the high levels of surface finish and dimensional accuracy required for metrology instruments and components. These processes ensure that measurement tools and devices can deliver precise and reliable results, which is essential for quality control, research, and development across various industries.
Surgical Instruments
Flat lapping is employed in the manufacturing of various surgical instruments like scalpels, scissors, and blades, ensuring sharp, precise edges and overall dimensional accuracy for effective performance during surgeries.
Orthopedic Implants
Components of orthopedic implants such as knee and hip replacements are shaped using flat lapping to achieve the required dimensions and fit necessary for successful implantation and function.
Implant Surfaces
Lapping is used to finish the surfaces of medical implants, including joint replacements and dental implants. This process ensures the implants have smooth surfaces that can promote better integration with bone and reduce the risk of infection or rejection.
Stents and Catheters
Polishing is crucial for the manufacturing of cardiovascular stents, catheters, and other implantable devices. A highly polished surface is essential to minimize thrombosis risk (blood clot formation) and improve biocompatibility.
Dental Instruments and Devices
Medical devices that rely on optical systems, such as endoscopes and microscopes, require lenses and other optical components to be polished to high clarity to provide clear, accurate images for diagnosis and treatment.
Lenses and Prisms
In optical metrology, the quality of lenses and prisms directly affects measurement accuracy. Polishing is essential to eliminate surface irregularities and achieve the optical clarity required for precise measurements.
Artificial Joints and Bone Screws
These orthopedic devices are finished with lapping and polishing to ensure smooth surfaces that reduce wear and tear, extending the life of the implant and minimizing tissue irritation.
Medical Blades and Needles
The manufacturing process for medical blades and needles involves precise grinding and polishing to achieve sharp, clean edges that ensure minimal trauma during incisions or injections.
Diagnostic Equipment
Components within diagnostic equipment, such as ultrasound probes and MRI machine parts, undergo precision grinding and polishing to meet the exact specifications required for accurate diagnostic results.
Prosthetics Components
Components of prosthetic devices are finely ground, lapped, and polished to ensure a comfortable fit and functional surface interaction with the user, enhancing durability and wear comfort.
