Microcellular and multi-cavity extrusion can also be used in the manufacture of medical tubing.
In the medical field, microporous and multi-cavity extrusion can be used to manufacture various types of tubing, such as catheters, infusion tubes, hemodialysis tubes, etc. These pipes usually need to have certain properties, such as flexibility, durability, biocompatibility, etc.
Through micropore extrusion, tiny holes can be formed on the surface of the pipe to achieve some special functions, such as gas permeability, liquid filtration, etc. These properties can be used to manufacture respiratory equipment, filter equipment, etc.
Multi-cavity extrusion can be used to manufacture pipes with multi-layer structures, where each chamber can have a different function. For example, it is possible to create tubing with drug delivery capabilities in which one chamber is used to deliver the drug and another chamber is used to deliver the liquid.
Microporous and multi-cavity extruded medical tubing offer the advantages of high precision, efficiency and consistency, and can meet the stringent tubing requirements of the medical industry. At the same time, these processing methods can also enable large-scale production of tubes to meet the needs of the medical industry.
Microporous and multi-cavity extrusion have the following advantages and application scenarios in medical tubing manufacturing:
We can extrude tubing with high-performance materials, thin walls, tight tolerances, and complex geometries, whether you’re looking for quick-turn prototypes or full-scale production.
