Introducing our latest innovation: an actuating device that features gears, bearings, and drive systems. This device provides essential mechanical support and motion transmission, making it ideal for surgical instruments and medical equipment. As a trusted China supplier and factory, we prioritize quality and precision in every product we deliver to ensure reliability in critical medical applications.

    Project Description

    Medical Actuating Device
    Material: Titanium alloy, PEEK and 316L stainless steel.
    Finishing: Polishing and sonicleaning.
    Parts machining process: CNC milling and turning, EDM, Surface finishing.
    Parts size: Medical Actuating Device around 320*280*165 mm.

    Production Capability For Medical Devices Products CNC Machined Manufacturer:

    Own 5 sets 5-axis CNC machining centers and 8 3+2 axis CNC milling machines.
    2 sets slow-EDM, 2 sets larger Lathe, and 2 sets grinding machines under 0.005mm tight tolerance.
    The secondary finishing including anodizing, power coating, chemical nickel-plating and more.

    What’s The Project Challenge For The Projects?

    The main challenge is the product feature is very complex, we need to machining these surface one by one, and all of parts need be assembled and make function purposed. The materials itself is very hardness, and it is not easy to machining. The single part for special dimensions tolerance is under 0.01mm, ask all of parts can be assembled and functional.

    Our engineering team have to use extended cutting tool, and 5 axis and 3+2 axis CNC milling machine to complete them. The parts include multi-angle holes (the 25 holes of the bone plate are distributed in 10 different angles), microchannels (with a width of only 100 μm), and thin-walled structures (with a thickness of 0.55 mm). Also, there are five holes are undercut, and a series of grooves along the tapered these holes are accurate hole under concentricity and tolerance control.

    Deformation Control: Thin-walled parts are prone to deformation due to cutting force or clamping force. Therefore, flexible vise clamping and staged processing are required. For example, in the processing of aluminum alloy medical accessories, process optimization is needed to reduce the deformation rate from 5% to below 0.3%.

    Quality traceability system: It is necessary to achieve full lifecycle data recording, including material batches, processing parameters, test reports, etc., to meet medical standards such as ISO 13485.

    Cost and Efficiency Balance: Creatingtec offers suggestions for review. High-precision processing takes a long time (such as bone plates reaching 1 hour and 11 minutes), and efficiency needs to be improved through automation.

    How To Understand and Make The Parts?

    First, we conducted a careful design overview to understand the parts and suggest improvements. Then, we applied Positive Material Identification (PMI) to test the composition of the alloys.

    Fabricating The Prototypes (CNC machined from aluminum in a 5-step process):

    • CNC Program the Machines
    • Engineering Review and Improve the Codes
    • Mount the Workpiece on the Machine and Adjust the Setup
    • Monitor Production and All Functions
    • Do adjustment the Cutting Programs When Necessary

    High precision CNC milling and turning machining: The mainstream technology achieves complex surface shaping through 5-axis linkage.

    Mirror EDM process: Using the mirror EDM process for minor undercut features where CNC milling cannot reach.

    Polishing and Surface finishing: Making the surface meet assembly and aesthetic needs. Titanium alloy and stainless steel parts undergo sonicleaning.
