Medical

A medical device is an implant, instrument, or machine used in the diagnosis of disease or in the cure, treatment, or prevention of disease, in humans. It is intended to affect the structure or function of the body but does not do so through a chemical action in the body. Medical device manufacturing is governed by agencies such as the FDA, and the MHRA, which expect manufacturers to adhere to established standards.

The challenges of today’s medical device manufacturing applications – small, single use devices in high demand with ever-increasing reliability requirements - are pushing the need for more sophisticated manufacturing technologies, and Miyachi Unitek, in consult with medical device industry expert customers, is leading the way with our comprehensive range of resistance and laser welding, laser marking, and laser cutting technologies.

Value-added process knowledge – like our patented motion and laser control techniques (position-based firing) and new metals joining production methods made possible by the availability of “green light” (532nm) pulsed welding lasers, further solidify our innovative, leading-edge status.

Cardiac pacemakers, defibrillators, guidewires, catheters, cannulae, hearing aids, brachyseeds, orthodontic appliances, prosthetics, and surgical tools are just a few of our many successful applications! Contact us for more information or a free sample evaluation.
