Flaring the proximal end of a 31Fr Introducer Catheter

Flaring a 31F Bicaval Introducer Catheter

Customer Requirement:

Customer had tight tolerances and the contract manufacturer could not control the process to achieve a consistent wall thickness and shape. They asked us to develop a consistent forming process.

ONEX RF Solution:

We analyzed the material properties and created a special funnel shaped die and wound several types of coils so we could balance the heating and even flow of the material. It was a matter of balancing the heat and controlling the material pressure to create the perfect tip every cycle.

 

 We used the following system: 

  • CTF-807-LX1 with a reverse flaring cassette and monitored the die temperature to better control the flaring process.

Customer Benefit:

Customer got a consistent process and was able to increase the throughput from 800-1000/day and reduce scrap 25%.

Forming the tip of a 5Fr Sheath and eliminating the tip splitting issues

4.5Fr Sheath and Dilator

Customer Requirement:

The Sheath distal end tips were cracking and splitting open after the forming process. They used an older catheter tipping system and did not have much control.

ONEX RF Solution:

We analyzed the materials and identified some ways to improve the process. We built a sample die and did full process development. Customer liked the results and purchased several systems replacing the old ones.

 We Offered the following: 

  • CTF-807-LX1 with fine pressure control module.
  • Manufactured the dies and developed the process.
  • Helped them validate the system and process.

RF Forming Flash-less 13Fr Introducer tips

Tip Forming 13F Dilator

Customer Requirement:

Customer had purchased a tip forming system and could not validate the process due to inconsistencies and flash issues every time they changed the setup.

ONEX RF Solution:

We reviewed the materials and current setup and offered to manufacture new dies and perform process development for three different catheters. Customer liked the results and purchased one system at first. After the successful validation and production, we received several new system orders.

We offered the following solutions. 

  • CTF-807-LX1 with medium cassette to form 2.5" long tips.
  • We designed and manufactured new dies and coils for different size catheters.
  • Helped the the customer validate the process.
