For those of us who are lucky to work in the higher ends of the electronics industry you will know what a responsibility it is to be part of the design and manufacturing process for Medical Devices.
Part of the challenge is finding the right products for the job. Because medial is such a niche market it is hard to find cables from an off the shelf supplier. However, Alpha Wire have done it again by offering a standard range of medical grade cable.
In my previous Blog I talked about the ground breaking EcoWire range and now I bring you the Medical Grad Wire and Cable from Alpha Wire. What is unique about this cable is that it is specifically designed with the medical device market in mind yet has the traditional properties you’d expect from standard cables.
So it’s like designing a standard cable assembly but getting the added protection of the high grade and special medical properties you need.
Special Medical grade properties include
- USP Class VI material available
- Sterilization-compatible materials available
- REACH, RoHS and WEEE compliant
- Phthalate free PVC options available Alpha Wire offers the best service in the industry
- Ultra-flexibility
- Miniaturized, small diameter
- Tangle free
- Kink resistant
Although the medical market is niche let’s take a look at the many products used in modern electronics for the medical market.
Diagnostics:
- CT scanners
- X-ray devices
- MRI scanners
- Ultrasound equipment
Motorized equipment
- Hospital beds
- Dental chairs
- Dental drills
- Wheelchairs
Patient monitoring
- Electroencephalographic (EEG) equipment
- Electrocardiographic (EKG) devices
- Pulse oximeters
- Endoscopes
- Laparoscopes
Surgical and life support
- Medical robots
- Centrifuges
- Anaesthesia apparatus
- Respiratory equipment
- Ophthalmological instruments
- Dialysis apparatus
When you consider the vast array of devices and the total commitment to quality it is essential that only the correct products and assembly expertise is engaged to ensure the life critical devices work in a robust and safe environment.
I believe that to be the best in any market you have to work with the best which is why there are specialist cable assembly companies out there to make sure your cables work as they should for as long as possible.
