Plastic used in the medical field, include a wide variety of plastic and engineering and high-tech polymers. Plastics provide a safe and an inexpensive way to manufacture equipment to those in the healthcare industry.
FIRMA is a contract manufacturer, specialised in CNC machining and turning of plastic parts and components for Aesthetic Medical Devices and Equipments.
Plastic medical devices have had a profound impact on aesthetical medical business.
It’s fair to say that plastic medical-device manufacturers are on the right track due to the material’s advantages over metal. Plastic is also durable and extremely easy to clean and sterilise, with a performance on par with metal in areas such as strength-to-weight/stiffness.
In the medical device industry, CNC machining affords cost-effective prototypes. It is also ideal for low or medium series production volumes.
Why realise plastic components for Aesthetic Medical Device?
Some BEST OF Plastic in Aesthetical Devis and Equipments
PRACTICAL CHOICE FOR MANUFACTURING / When complex and intricate geometries are involved, the flexibility of plastics as relative to metals makes good sense. Plastics can also provide metal-like robustness and strength.
LIGHTWEIGHT AND ERGONOMIC / Minimising hand fatigue can be achived by using plastic medical-device components. Metals are heavier, while plastics are lighter and easier to handle. Minimising weight increases mobility, which makes components easier to use.
ECONOMICAL / Manufacturing with plastic and high-tech polymers is more affordable than metals, whether at high or low volume. Plastic is also cheaper to store and ship, as it’s lightweight. By focussing on lower-cost solutions, manufacturers can make affordability a key benefit to their products.
RECYCLABILITY / The healthcare industry is looking for ways to lower its carbon footprint, and recyclable solutions is the way forward when possible. Certain plastic medical applications can be recycled.
