AMETEK Engineered Medical Components will exhibit TSE™ medical device interconnect assemblies and Avicenna™ laser-and mechanically machined medical components at COMPAMED 2012, November 14-16, in Dusseldorf, Germany.
TSE custom electrical interconnects are found on medical devices that serve a growing range of therapeutic sectors, including neuro-stimulation, patient monitoring and cardiac rhythm management.
TSE is a US Food and Drug Administration-registered manufacturer of both reusable and disposable cable assemblies. Among the value-added options it offers customers are in-house testing and validation, and fully packaged and labeled products for sterilization.
Advanced laser ablating with Avicenna equipment eliminates snagging and binding in medical components that are too small or delicate for mechanical methods.
In 2011, AMETEK added Avicenna Technology’s custom fine-featured components and engineered assemblies, which are widely used for catheters, sensors and electrical stimulation leads.
Avicenna laser machining meets exacting tolerances in custom hole diameters, slots and shapes.
The Avicenna product line includes a range of custom capabilities, including precision laser-cutting, marking and etching, polymer tubing and tube ablating. Additional capabilities include laser micro-welding and wire ablating, custom machining and shaping, and tube cutting. The company also offers laser marking for materials that have proven difficult to mark with conventional printing and embossing methods.
Non-contact laser etching by Avicenna marks medical grade tubing without inks.
