Medical devices have unique requirements that distinguish them from other types of equipment. These requirements are driven by the need to ensure patient safety, efficacy, and compliance with stringent regulatory standards. Here are the key unique requirements for medical devices:
1. Biocompatibility
Requirement: Materials used must be compatible with the human body and not cause adverse reactions.
Standards: ISO 10993 series provides guidelines for biocompatibility testing.
Yixing’s Expertise: Yixing specializes in fabricating components from biocompatible materials like stainless steel 316L and titanium, ensuring compliance with global standards.
2. Sterilization and Cleanability
Requirement: Devices must be able to withstand sterilization processes such as autoclaving, gamma irradiation, or ethylene oxide treatment without degradation.
Standards: ISO 17665 for steam sterilization, ISO 11135 for ethylene oxide sterilization.
Yixing’s Capability: Yixing’s precision metal fabrication processes ensure that components maintain their integrity even after multiple sterilization cycles.
3. Precision and Reliability
Requirement: High precision in design and manufacturing to ensure consistent performance and reliability.
Standards: ISO 13485 for quality management systems in medical devices.
Yixing’s Strength: With state-of-the-art sheet metal fabrication and machining fabrication technologies, Yixing delivers components with micron-level precision, ensuring reliability in critical medical devices.
Selecting the right material for medical sheet metal components is a critical step in ensuring device safety, performance, and regulatory compliance. Yixing uses the medical grade material to produce high precision metal parts for medical equipment. We can also use customer-supplied material for special application.
1. Stainless steel is the most widely used material in medical devices, and for good reason. Grades 304 and 316L are particularly popular due to their excellent balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility.
2. Titanium is a top choice for medical devices that require high strength, low weight, and exceptional biocompatibility. Grades 1, 2, and 5 (Ti-6Al-4V) are commonly used.
3. Aluminum is lightweight and cost-Effective. 5052 and 6061 are often used in non-implantable medical devices.
1. Strict Quality Inspection Processes
Every component undergoes rigorous inspection at multiple stages of production.
We use advanced testing methods, including dimensional checks, surface finish analysis, and functional testing, to ensure compliance with specifications.
2. Precision Measuring Tools and Equipment
We utilize state-of-the-art measuring tools, such as CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machines) and optical comparators, to verify micron-level accuracy.
These tools ensure that every component meets the tight tolerances required for medical devices.
3. Material Traceability and Documentation
We maintain complete traceability of all materials used in production, from raw material sourcing to finished components.
