Blasting processes in medical technology - where precision can be life-saving

Our blasting systems produce the perfect surfaces for medical instruments

Blasting processes in medical technology make an important contribution to the production of high-quality surgical instruments for human medicine, the dental sector and also veterinary medicine. Before a surgical instrument in sterile packaging is used in the operating theatre, it undergoes a meticulous production and monitoring process. An instrument is forged from corrosion-resistant chromium steel, for example, hardened and then tempered. Blasting processes in medical technology ensure that surfaces are given a flawless finish. Often, the instruments initially go through an automatic grinding unit before they are blasted either by hand or by machine to achieve the final finish.

Blasting processes in medical technology ensure a perfect surface finish for high-quality surgical instruments. We would be delighted to tell you about how our grinding and blasting systems could work for your production requirements.

Blasting processes in medical technology are also in demand for instrument reprocessing

Investments in surgical instruments represent a significant factor in terms of the ongoing costs of running a hospital. Instrument reprocessing and reuse is therefore becoming increasingly widespread. Blasting processes in medical technology are also commonly used in this field. Mechanical surface processing with blasting processes in medical technology is used in the following cases, for example:

• Removal of silicate deposits left behind by cleaning agents containing silicate or excessive silica in the cleaning water.
• Surface oxidation of the instruments.
• Corrosion of the metal surfaces from long-term organic residues or chloride in the cleaning fluids.
• Wear corrosion due to inadequate lubrication at the joints of forceps or tweezers.
• Smoothing of tiny recesses or cracks in order to create a sealed and therefore hygienic surface.
