Medical

In the field of medical components, Precision Micro provides state-of-the-art medical prototyping and the manufacturing technologies that allow medical engineering designers to bring their ideas to reality.

Precision Micro components engineers operate in the milli and micro scales to produce high precision, stress free components for use across a broad spectrum of medical applications.

Our manufacturing technologies are particularly suited to the medical field because we utilise the same processes to manufacture individual and prototype parts as we do to produce volume requirements. Clinical trials can be conducted economically with parts manufactured using these processes while volume manufacture requires no new tooling or re-qualification.

These 'clean' manufacturing technologies also meet pharmacopoeia hygiene requirements.

The majority of our work is carried out on a partnership basis under conditions of non-disclosure. We also have active collaborations with several Universities in both the UK and mainland Europe.

The same process technologies we use to manufacture medical prototypes are used to manufacture volume quantities. This helps smooth the process of medical approval.

Medical Standards

Precision Micro manufactures to the requirements of all the regulatory standards applicable to the medical industry.

It takes experience, specialist skills and cutting edge manufacturing technology to produce high performance medical components… Precision Micro has all three.

Precision Micro produces medical equipment and instrument components manufactured in stainless steel. We can also make medical implants in materials such as tantalum, Nitinol, Elgiloy®, tungsten, titanium, cobalt alloy and platinum iridium... materials that are ideal for processing with our manufacturing technologies.

Microfluidics

‘Next generation’ microfluidics is focused on making more complex systems of channels with more sophisticated fluid transportation, mixing and reacting capabilities.

Precision Micro, with its LEEF and LEEP technologies, has the capability to produce micro-channels in the 25 microns range with exceptional repeatability and economy features at the heart of modern microfluidics.

Micro-XL collaboration

Micro-XL is a joint commercial and technical venture between Precision Micro and XL Precision Technologies, two of Europe’s leading high precision components manufacturers.

The primary strength of the venture is the in-depth medical engineering knowledge of the Micro-XL field based engineers. Based in Europe and the US, they have extensive knowledge of the industry and are able to work directly with surgeons and other end users in order to develop concepts into products that really do solve problems.

A further Micro-XL strength is the wide range of in-house manufacturing technologies it has available… all technologies that provide process consistency from prototypes through to volume production.
