Overview

Medical device manufacturing leaves no room for error. The components we machine may be implanted in patients or used in critical surgical procedures.

Medical device manufacturing leaves no room for error. The components we machine may be implanted in patients, used in life-supporting equipment, or employed in critical surgical procedures. At PiPrecision, we approach every medical project with the seriousness it deserves. Our medical machining capabilities support orthopedic implants, surgical instruments, diagnostic equipment, and drug delivery systems. We understand the unique requirements of medical manufacturing: biocompatible materials, ultra-clean environments, rigorous traceability, and documentation that satisfies FDA and regulatory requirements worldwide.

Case Study Highlights

Spinal Implant Production

Client: Medical Device Company (Orthopedics)

Challenge:

Produce titanium spinal screws with complex thread profile and precise hex drive, requiring consistent quality for implantation.

Solution:

Developed dedicated tooling and inspection fixtures, implemented 100% dimensional inspection with automated CMM routines.

Result:

99.8% first-pass yield, zero field failures, awarded preferred supplier status, annual volume 50,000+ units.

Micro-Fluidic Diagnostic Component

Client: Point-of-Care Diagnostics Company

Challenge:

Machine micro-fluidic channels (0.2mm width) in plastic manifold for blood analysis device, requiring burr-free edges and tight tolerances.

Solution:

Micro-machining with specialized tooling and techniques, developed custom deburring process for clean channels.

Result:

Channels passed fluid flow validation, component successfully integrated into FDA-cleared diagnostic device.
