Coiling

Micro-invasive procedures require a number of different wire based instruments that are key to smooth and easy handling by the surgeon.  For leads, stylets, guide wires, and catheters, we offer a variety of wire products, including coils, core wires, ground mandrels, complete stylets and other such assemblies.

Coil Winding
Our coil winding capabilities cover the complete range of coil constructions for the medical device industry, from multiple filar lead coils to micro coils for aneurysm treatment.

Guidewire and Catheter Coils

• Clean cut coil ends
• Multiple and tapered diameters
• Wire diameters >0.018 mm  (0.0007”)
• Coil diameters down to 0.08 mm (0.003”)
• Shaped wire coils
• Varying stiffness (droop) in close wound coils for single filar and multiple filar coils
• Coils for strengthening and reinforcing catheters and tubing
• Double helix aneurysm coils

Drive Cables

• Drive cables and assemblies with high torsional stiffness and column strength for rotating surgical devices

Pacing and Defibrillator Lead Coils

• Multiple filar, pitched or tight wound
• Offsets and tapers
• “J” coils
• Coated wire coils
• Components for implantable electric stimulators

Pre-Coated Wire and Laser Ablation
We are able to wind precision coils from pre-coated wire.  We can also perform an automated stripping process to remove the coating in predetermined areas. The stripping is integrated into a coiling system.  Materials that we can strip include ETFE, hydrophilic coatings and other Teflon® materials.
