Medical device manufacturers are very familiar with the micro-molding of precision, high-tolerance parts and all the problems associated with it. From the production of catheter tips to surgical device handles and stents, maintaining product quality and clean manufacturing equipment is paramount. Keeping micro-cavities clean, as well as cleaning the small, deep, and complex geometry of micro-tools, is a critical concern when manufacturing very high tolerance medical device parts.
Dry ice blasting enables medical and pharmaceutical facilities to cut cleaning and part finishing time, as well as significantly reduces replacement tooling costs and product scrap rates while increasing quality output
