Medical Quickfacts

What are common medical applications?

  • Fitness trackers, health monitors, drug delivery devices, enclosures and cases, equipment, prosthetics and more

What materials are best for medical applications?

  • Titanium – Biocompatible for internal joints and skeletal replacements. Light, strong, can be 3D printed, corrosion resistant.
  • Stainless Steel – Excellent for surgical instruments
  • Nylon and ABS – Good for medical appliances, inexpensive, can be 3D printed in the field for emergency medicine
  • TPE and Silicone – Seals and fittings, useful for custom fitting, comfortable for applications against the skin surface, chemically resistant
  • POM and PEEK – Engineering-grade plastics. Strong, durable for joint replacements. PEEK can be high-heat sterilized.

Common Medical Manufacturing Services

Plastic Injection Molding

Our in-house services are suited to produce fast turnaround injection molds from a variety of tool steels. We offer reliable and repeatable results when making components and enclosures from medical and food grade plastic resins. We also do insert molding, overmolding, 2-part molds and more to facilitate your most demanding medical applications at higher volumes.

CNC Machining

Multi-axis CNC machining is great for making unlimited volumes of precision parts with engineering grade plastics and metal. No fixed tooling is required and design modifications can be done quickly and easily to facilitate rapid product development. This is critical for meeting the needs of a fast moving industry with short lead times, tight tolerances and a high mix of parts.

Polyurethane Vacuum Casting

Production-quality resin copies are formed from reusable silicone molds based on a 3D-printed master model. Our polyurethane vacuum casting services use pourable resins that mimic the look and feel of injection molded plastic. Cast copies are perfect for rapid prototyping, product development, modeling, testing and certification.

Metal 3D Printing

Our service fuses powdered metal into fully dense parts that can be designed with features that are impossible to make by other processes. This service is suitable for customized prosthetics, maxillofacial bone structures, dental appliances or artificial replacement joints. Metal 3D printed medical appliances are lightweight, strong and fully bio-compatible.
