Plastic Injection Molding for Medical Devices

Injection molding is the plastic parts manufacturing method. By injecting molten plastic material in the molds you can create large volume-based plastic parts effortlessly. 

 

Our injection moulding solutions are timely while being the best quality, and help our clients address all time-related constraints. Our in-depth industry experience puts us in a position to come up with the injection moulds that are the best match for client requirements and ensure 100% satisfaction. 

Medical device manufacturers are now taking the help of plastic injection molding to produce durable, more efficient, and versatile products. This plastic parts manufacturing process is used to create medial products such as-  

Surgical instruments.

Dental implants.

Tubes.

Prosthetics.

Insert-molded styles and biopsy sets.

Importance of plastic Injection Mold Manufacturing in the Medical Industry.

Medical device products come in various shapes, sizes, and designs. Sometimes it is very difficult for the manufacturer to create accurate medical products. Only plastic injection mold can handle this task. Like surgical devices must be lightweight and designed with great accuracy. Devices like needles, tubing, connectors, and bags are designed for drug delivery must be durable, transparent, and chemically inert. In short, plastic injection molding is suitable for manufacturing medical devices.

Picking Medical- Grade Material.

Like any other manufacturing process, choosing the right material to manufacture the products is crucial. Because the quality of the products depends on the material, we choose.

The following are the common material that can meet with the demand of the medical industry-

Polytetrafluoroethylene:  This plastic material is also known as Teflon.  It is resistant to heat and harsh weather conditions and uses pipes to handle corrosive chemicals because of non-corrosion properties.

Perfluoroalkoxy: This material is commonly used for manufacturing laboratory instruments. It is flexible, optically transparent, and chemical inertness.

Fluorinated ethylene propylene: This material is used to produce medical devices that are subjected to weathering like sunlight. It is commonly used in manufacturing containers, packaging films, and breather patches.

Propylene: It is thermoplastic used to manufacture the products that can degrade under the sunlight and remain stable without losing the functionality.

Polycarbonate: It is a versatile material that can withstand heat and cold. The temperature stability of this material makes it ideal to manufacture blood filter housing, centrifugal force separators and syringes.

Should you consider a plastic injection molding manufacturing process for your next medical project?

Compared to other materials, plastic offers many remarkable advantages when it comes to manufacturing medical devices. Many medical devices are difficult to manufacture due to their complex designs and functionality. The injection moulds process can create easily.  If you manufacture the medical devices by using the right material, it offers you strength, heat stability, high resistance to weathering at an affordable cost.
