Facilitating Innovation

It’s simple really. Medical devices are getting smaller. Well, maybe more accurately put, the demand for smaller medical devices is becoming larger.

Trends such as minimally invasive surgery and the rise of microfluidic devices, coupled with the advent of manufacturing technologies that allow for production of such ultra-precise designs, are driving innovation and challenging the status quo in the medical industry.

Laser plastic welding is one such manufacturing technology. Adding a little drama to the typically unexciting world of manufacturing, devices that were no more than working designs a few years ago currently are in use and saving lives thanks to laser welding.

This article explores some of the capabilities that lasers bring to the medical manufacturing industry as well as showcase a few of these life-saving devices.
