Balloon dilation catheters used to expand the coronary vessels must not only be leak-proof but are also subject to tight tolerances. A CO2 laser integrated into a welding system ensures the requirements are implemented in series production, while making for a robust process that offers short cycle times.
It’s simple really. Medical devices are getting smaller. Well, maybe more accurately put, the demand for smaller medical devices is becoming larger.
Trends such as minimally invasive surgery and the rise of microfluidic devices, coupled with the advent of manufacturing technologies that allow for production of such ultra-precise designs, are driving innovation and challenging the status quo in the medical industry.
