Laser Applications In The MEDICAL Industry

Marking On Medical Device

Laser Marking For Traceability and Compliance

Several medical tools and components require permanent, high-contrast markings to ensure compliance with regulations and traceability requirements.

Laser marking ensures long-lasting, high-contrast marks that can withstand sterilization and cleaning processes.  

It can be achieved on: 

  • Plastic dental aligners and metal medical tools for traceability and branding.
  • Titanium implants to ensure identification and compatibility.
  • Catheters for measurement scales and branding.  
  • Uncoated lenses to enhance visibility and positioning before final processing.
  • Tyvek 2FS medical packaging for high-speed, precise text and barcodes. 
     
Laser Texturing Medical Tools

Laser Texturing For Improved Performance

Laser texturing can modify the surface of medical tools and components to enhance adhesion, wear resistance, and functionality.  

This process is particularly useful in improving bonding characteristics and ensuring optimal performance and reliability.

Laser texturing can be achieved on: 

  • Titanium implants for enhanced osseointegration and biocompatibility, improving their ability to bond with bone tissue.
  • Catheter tubing and guidewires to achieve customized flexibility and performance (micro-machining).
  • Dental retainers to improve bonding and long-term wear resistance.   
  • Polycarbonate lenses for improved light diffusion and optical performance (e.g., micro-patterning on lenses).
Laser Drilling Catheters

Laser Drilling For Precision Openings

Medical devices such as catheters and guidewires require microscopic openings to optimize fluid control and functionality.  

Laser drilling provides the accuracy and repeatability needed for creating small, uniform holes without damaging the surrounding material.  

This process is ideal for:  

  • Catheters to ensure controlled perforations to enable proper airflow and liquid flow.
  • Polymer tubing for precise hole diameters (200 µm or smaller) to enable fluid management.
