Micro Giants: Micromolding for Medtech Medical Product Outsourcing article featuring Isometric Micro Molding, Inc. Micromolding for medtech is becoming serious business. The medical industry’s demands are continually challenging suppliers and manufacturers to stretch their technical competencies into areas where they may fear to tread. Doctors and surgeons urge instruments for less invasive procedures and quicker recovery times, devices are shrinking and becoming more complex, and designers seek out smaller, high-precision components with materials and tolerances that years ago were deemed impossible. To further advance minimally invasive device designs and reduce part sizes, manufacturers are turning to micromolding. By definition, micromolding is an injection molding process, but the manufactured components require magnification to view details on or within the part. It can also be defined as parts with sizes or tolerances…

Micro Medical Device Chips Deliver Pinpoint Pain-Relieving Therapies

Micro Medical Device Chips Deliver Pinpoint Pain-Relieving Therapies

Isometric, News
Micro Medical Device Chips Deliver Pinpoint Pain-Relieving Therapies Often times in micro manufacturing, we use what has been successful in nature.  Commonly, natural pressure, or piezoelectric, capillary, and venture-type actions utilize pressure and surface tension to move fluids to and through implants and needles to move blood or active ingredients to direct places in the body. Isometric Micro Molding, Inc. molds parts the size of salt crystals that are scalable and economically feasible for the treatment of intraocular, cardio, and neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, Glaucoma, Macular Degeneration, diabetes, oncology skin treatment, and cardiac disease.  The over-molded medical implant chips such described below is one example of the research to empirical test resulting in an enabling technology for many new micro implantable therapy devices using biocompatible micro molded polymer materials. Medical…

The Merging of Medical Device Manufacturers and the Pharmaceutical Industry

General, Isometric, News
The Merging of Medical Device Manufacturers and the Pharmaceutical Industry As product technology advances and the general demand for healthcare expands, the industry line between medical device manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies is being blurred as innovative products continue to emerge. Manufacturers are exploring new technologies that adhere to better patient compliance, improve product safety and utilize unique drug delivery methods. These new technologies include:- Small adhesive patches that are encapsulated and swallowed. Once in the body they dissolve and stick to the wall of the intestine to deliver time-released medication- Implantable devices that automatically run tests and dose medications- Transdermal patches that are embedded with micro-sized needles that deliver medication over a period of time As technology advances and healthcare treatments become more complex, the pharmaceutical and medical device industries…
