AMETEK ENGINEERED MEDICAL COMPONENTS

In the realm of advanced manufacturing and precision engineering, the power of laser technology has proven to be a game-changer. One application that showcases its remarkable capabilities is wire ablation - an intricate process that demands both expertise and cutting-edge equipment. The ablation of fine wires is a precise technique that involves the controlled removal of material from conductive wires, enabling numerous applications across various industries. Laser ablation involves precisely removing insulation or coatings, exposing wire conductors, or creating intricate patterns. AMETEK EMC's mastery of laser technology, extensive experience and cutting-edge laser systems empower to drive innovation, optimize production processes, and push the boundaries of manufacturing. With our laser ablation expert brand Avicenna and its facilities, we’ve been involved with the manufacture of laser ablated fine wires using precision excimer laser systems.

When it comes to medical devices, improving their performance and design for the benefit of patient safety is always on top of the agenda for medical device manufacturers. Reliable and effective material solutions are key. Silicone offers many benefits when used for medical device components as the material has more grip, has a tactile feel and is highly durable. Silicone is also a biocompatible with low toxicity levels, can easily be sterilized and autoclaved and hence, perfectly suited for clinical environments. In addition, works in a wide temperature range, is chemically inert and can be coated. It also comes in a range of durometers from soft to hard and can be adjusted depending on its use and required impact resistance. AMETEK EMC offers both Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) Molding and Silicone Transfer Molding (STM), both are used to produce a wide range of components and products for the medical device industry
