  • Digitisation of Autoclaves
    The autoclave manufacturer STERIFLOW relies on ifm when it comes to their fully networked autoclaves. Thanks to IO-Link technology and the Smart Observer software, STERIFLOW can now offer customised 4.0 autoclaves to their customers. As of now, condition-based maintenance, remote monitoring
  • Autoclaving for Medical Devices
    Autoclaving is often used to sterilize medical devices to prevent disease transmission both in new and reusable products. Autoclaves sterilize by introducing high pressure steam into a chamber containing the objects to be sterilized. Therefore, these devices must be able to withstand autoclaving
  • Autoclaving Resistance of Medical Adhesives
    Resistance to steam sterilization is an important consideration for the selection of polymeric adhesives, sealants and potting compounds for use in medical applications. Autoclaving is one of the most rigorous and widely employed sterilization methods for medical devices. With this in mind, Master
  • Automating Large Autoclaves for Complex Parts
    wireless implementations.In this paper we discuss the automation of autoclaves for precise processing of complex parts and show how the judicious use of Micron Instruments' sensors can lead to much higher production efficiency
  • Application Note: Autoclave Control Using the C360
    Steam is used to heat the autoclave contents, either by direct entry into the autoclave. (where it is in contact with the product) or indirectly using a heat exchanger. The temperature is raised to a predetermined level and maintained at that level for a number of hours to heat-treat the rubber
  • New Autoclave Validation Data Logging System
    CAS DataLoggers and MadgeTech are excited to announce the release of the new AVS140 Autoclave Validation Data Logger System, featuring the HiTemp140 and the PR140 temperature and pressure data loggers and professional MadgeTech 4 Secure Software with IQ/OQ/PQ workbook. Call a CAS DataLoggers
  • Motor Sterility Management: Protecting vs. Autoclaving
    Surgeries must be performed using sterile equipment to prevent infection. While some simple surgical tools can be manufactured inexpensive enough to be economically thrown away after each use, more sophisticated tools such as drills, saws, and shavers must be Slotted SMS Autoclave reusable
  • Multi-Conductor Compatibility with Steam (Autoclave) and Gas Plasma (STERRAD (R)) Sterilization
    Medical electronics device designers require materials that can be expected to sustain repeated sterilization exposure. Steam sterilization through autoclave is a well-known method. Gas plasma sterilization through the STERRAD (R) system is more recently established but becoming more common
  • Adhesives for a Variety of Repair Applications on Aircrafts
    Repair requirements for out of autoclave applications with film adhesives, bonding, filling, potting and wet lay-up repair with paste adhesives and higher temperature products for propulsion applications.
  • Surgical Power Tools
    When surgeons perform operations in the operating room, they reach for battery-powered tools. These tools must be precise and reliable and withstand over a thousand autoclave cycles. This places tough demands on the micromotors operating the tools.
  • APPLICATION PROFILE: Surgical Hand Tool - Small Bone And Trauma
    A European medical device manufacturer of small bone power tools approached Portescap to develop a robust motor solution, capable of over 1,600 autoclave cycles, that provided high power in a compact package.
  • Cut to the Bone
    An advanced surgical system used in partial-knee replacement procedures required a custom motor solution that addressed an array of needs, including precise position control and the durability to withstand autoclaving. This article highlights the innovative solution that was developed
  • Medical Grade Epoxy Offers Thermal Conductivity and Electrical Insulation
    Master Bond EP42HT-4AOMed Black is a new two part epoxy created for medical device manufacturing. It is biocompatible and non-cytotoxic, passing both USP Class VI and ISO 10993-5 certifications. This epoxy withstands aggressive chemical sterilants, radiation and repeated cycles of autoclaving.
  • Delivering High Quality Surgical Treatment to More Patients Through Cost Optimized Sterilizable Motors
    Surgeons worldwide prefer surgical hand tools that utilize the most advanced technology to deliver the highest performance and improve patient outcomes. To keep the cost of procedures down, the most sophisticated tools must be used in high volume which requires steam sterilization (autoclaving
