How ISS Astronauts Stay Cool with Precision Tech
The quadrupole is a pivotal component in mass spectrometry, ultimately determining the device’s success. This compact part can make or break the accuracy of the readings, often with life-altering stakes, and it all comes down to its manufacturing quality and precision. Unfortunately, even the most sophisticated mass spectrometry device falls short without a high-quality quadrupole. […]
The High-Tech Medical Manufacturing Challenge We’ll Never Forget
We are continually reminded of the importance of precision and accuracy in high-tech medical manufacturing, especially when producing components for life-saving instruments. However, one particular medtech manufacturing project has left an indelible mark in our memories – and hearts. This post will walk you through the trials and triumphs of an unforgettable medical mass spectrometry […]
The Fundamentals of Achieving Super Thin Wall Thicknesses on Tiny Parts
Many component manufacturers deploy a CNC centerless technique when tasked with grinding tiny parts with super thin wall thicknesses. However, they can inadvertently crush them without the right grinding approach, triggering catastrophic results that drive up costs and timelines. So, the question becomes: How can super thin walls be achieved without compromising tiny parts? To […]
How We Pulled Off a Near-Impossible Aerospace Manufacturing Feat
We were instantly intrigued when our high-end motor manufacturing customer asked us to produce components for highly confidential defense motors. First, they explained that the tightly controlled tolerances prevented them from manufacturing these aeronautic parts in-house. Then, they revealed that more than 60 other component manufacturers had either refused or tried and failed to produce […]
How We Successfully Produced Life-Saving Bend-Free Vascular Guidewires When Others Failed
When a Salt Lake City-based biotechnology firm approached us in 2019, they were working with our competitor to help them manufacture specialty neurovascular guidewires, a critical device component designed for two stroke intervention procedures: thrombectomy and endovascular coiling. Upon reconnecting with them a year later, the firm revealed that their current vendor was struggling to […]
