Thermoplastics Portfolio
These micro medical components are made with thermoplastics, which is a medical grade polymer that becomes pliable above a specific temperature, but returns to its rigid state upon cooling. See our Thermoplastic Materials page to learn about the types of materials we work with.
Our specialized micromolding process and capabilities allows us to achieve >95% part’s model geometry produced without exception, even with extremely small and precise features like ultra thin walls.
Implantable Strain Relief
Micro Material: The implantable device is molded from Polypropylene (PP). Micro Features: The medical design required zero draft throughout, and featured 0.5mm (0.012″) diameter holes throughout the 1.3″ long part design. Description: The inside geometry...
Overmolded Electrodes with Leads
Micro Material: This micro medical device is overmolded with Polypropylene (PP). Micro Features: The six (6) tiny electrodes with leads attached were manually hand-loaded into the tool to create this part. The diameter of each of the electrodes is 400 microns (0.4mm)...
Drug Delivery Nozzle
Micro Materials: This drug delivery device is made from Cyclo Olefin Polymer (COP). Micro Features: Hole size .006″ diameter with +/- .0004″ tolerance. This diameter is molded flash-free, a requirement for the part functionality. Core pins are wire EDM...
Drug Delivery Straw
Materials: This drug delivery device is made from Polypropylene (PP). Description: Pictured above the thin-walled cannula, this thin-walled micromolded design has a .005″ long distance wall. Highly capable tooling and molding equipment and techniques are...
