Application of Laser Technology in Medical Device Industry

The localization substitution process of China’s laser industry is accelerating, and the substitution quality is significantly improved. Laser cutting equipment is widely used in the terminal industry in China. Laser processing has the advantages of high precision, flexible processing, energy conservation, environmental protection, safety and cleaning, and can mark, cut, weld, clean and other processes on a variety of materials. Therefore, in the medical device industry, laser processing has “flourished everywhere”.
The finely differentiated development of the medical device industry, technological iteration and industrial upgrading put forward higher requirements for the device manufacturing and processing capacity: it can not only ensure the production demand of high-end medical devices, but also reduce the production cost and personnel investment through intelligent processing equipment.
Laser technology is widely used in the medical device industry. It plays a more important role in high-end technology fields such as medical devices, medical services, biopharmaceuticals, and pharmaceuticals. It is also more used in the human medical field to improve the lives of patients.
Advantages of laser cutting?
1) Good cutting quality. Because of the small laser spot, high energy density and fast cutting speed, laser cutting can obtain better cutting quality; (2) The laser cutting incision is thin and narrow, both sides of the cutting seam are parallel and perpendicular to the surface; (3) The cutting surface is smooth and beautiful, and can even be used as the last processing procedure. Parts can be directly used without machining; (4) After laser cutting, the width of the heat affected zone is very small, the properties of the materials near the kerf are almost unaffected, and the deformation of the workpiece is small, and the cutting accuracy is high; (5) Fast cutting speed; (6) Non contact cutting, no contact between nozzle and workpiece during laser cutting, no tool wear.
