Foothill Ranch, CA – March 31, 2016 – Bal Seal Engineering, Inc., a leading producer of custom-engineered conducting solutions for equipment used in high-current applications, has subjected its Bal Spring™ canted coil springs to third-party testing to demonstrate how well the springs withstand KEMA’s rigorous short circuit current exposure and cycling. The results...
In the world of medical electronics, the title for biggest breakthrough goes to closed loop functionality. This technological milestone has helped device designers achieve new levels of active implantable performance, and it has driven change in three crucial areas: power conservation (providing stimulation only as needed through neural feedback), improved patient efficacy (adjusting therapy...
Orthopedic devices that contain canted coil springs can be cleaned by methods that meet FDA requirements. Two such validated methods are discussed below. Steve Twork, Global Market Manager, Medical Device According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), inadequate reprocessing of medical devices between patients can result in the retention of blood, tissue and...
Systemization reduces time to market. For years, manufacturers of neurostimulators and other active implantables have been feeling extraordinary pressure from shareholders and other funding sources to move more quickly from design stage to production. As a result, many device makers have begun searching for opportunities to integrate components as subsystems in order to...
