- Acetal (POM/Delrin)
Applications in the Medical Industry
Precision-machined medical grade plastic components are used in various surgical applications, including instruments and devices. Additionally, implantable components, such as those used in joint replacements and other procedures, rely on high-quality plastic parts.
Plastic components also play a crucial role in diagnostic equipment and drug delivery systems. Diagnostic equipment parts, such as those used in MRI and CT machines, require precise and reliable plastic components to function accurately. Furthermore, plastic parts are used in various drug delivery systems, including syringes, inhalers, and infusion pumps.
Plastic components are also used in orthopedic devices, dental instruments and implants, laboratory equipment, and medical wearables and prosthetics. Orthopedic devices, such as splints and casts, often rely on plastic components for added support and stability. Dental instruments and implants also utilize plastic parts for their precision and durability. Moreover, laboratory equipment and medical wearables and prosthetics often incorporate plastic components to enhance functionality and comfort.
