The medical industry has extremely high demands. Products must be safe, reliable, and accurate. Injection moulding of medical parts is a complex process. The correct choice of materials and thorough validation are essential in this regard. Euro-Techniek is your specialist in this field. We guarantee the highest quality for your components.
The crucial role of material choice
Material selection for medical devices is the first step to success. The chosen material influences functionality and safety. It must meet strict biocompatibility requirements. Furthermore, resistance to sterilisation processes is often a requirement. Consider autoclaving, gamma radiation, or ethylene oxide. Incorrect choices can have serious consequences. Therefore, Euro-Techniek advises you carefully at every step. We help you choose the perfect material.
Popular medical plastics and their properties
Different medical plastics have unique properties. The intended application determines which material is most suitable. Euro-Techniek has experience with a wide range of polymers. Below are some examples of commonly used materials:
- PEEK (Polyetheretherketone): Very strong and resistant to high temperatures and chemicals.
- PSU (Polysulfone): Transparent, rigid and resistant to repeated sterilisation.
- PC (Polycarbonate): High impact resistance and clarity. Ideal for visual components.
- POM (Polyoxymethylene): Low friction and excellent wear resistance.
We advise you on the best option for your application.
The importance of a validated process
A reliable product requires a stable production process. The validation process guarantees this consistency from start to finish. This process consists of Installation Qualification, Operational Qualification, and Performance Qualification (IQ, OQ, PQ). Each step is documented and verified. This ensures that every product is identical and always meets the specified requirements. At Euro-Techniek, we take the validation process very seriously. Your product safety is our top priority.
Precision injection moulding for medical components
Medical components often require very tight tolerances. Precision injection moulding is therefore the standard within this sector. It enables us to produce complex shapes with exceptional accuracy and repeatability. This is crucial for components in diagnostic equipment or surgical instruments. Euro-Techniek has mastered precision injection moulding to perfection. Our advanced machinery and expertise guarantee top quality.
Cleanroom production under ISO 13485
Contamination is a major risk in the injection moulding of medical parts. Therefore, production in a controlled environment is essential. Our cleanroom production minimises the presence of dust and other particles. We are ISO 13485 certified. This standard is specific to medical devices. It demonstrates that our quality management system meets the strictest international requirements. You can rely on the purity and safety of our products. Euro-Techniek delivers uncompromising quality.
