It’s not always easy to see the link between seals and overall equipment performance. But it’s there. We’ve designed this infographic to illustrate how the right seal can help designers answer the demand for smaller, more precise robots that amplify surgeon performance and improve patient outcomes.
If you missed our DesignLive Medical webinar when we hosted it on October 6, 2021, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered. You can check out this 30-minute, information-packed session for designers of surgical tools, pumps, and other critical equipment on your own time. Highlights include: Reducing friction for longer device life Choosing the right...
We’ve developed some great new resources for electrical contacts in heart assist devices, and we’d like to share them with you. If any of these get you thinking about how our Bal Conn® and SYGNUS® contacts could help you improve the performance and reliability of your VAD device, just call or e-mail us. ...
Creating heart assist devices that help bridge the gap between short and long term care is a tough job. But choosing the right electrical contact can make it a lot easier. That’s why we’ve prepared this short presentation for you. It examines the relationship between electrical contact selection and the performance of VAD devices....
On October 6th, 2021, we’ll be kicking off our DesignLive webinar program with a free 30-minute session on sealing for medical devices. If you’ve been looking for ways to improve the performance and reliability of a surgical tool, pump, or any other type of medical device, you’ll want to register and mark your calendar...
The Bal Conn® electrical contact and the SYGNUS® implantable contact system deliver low electrical resistance (as low as 10 milliohms in some sizes) and minimal heat rise for maximum power efficiency and patient safety. Our components are helping designers redefine “temporary” circulatory support by enabling implantation for longer recovery periods.
In heart assist devices, the small stuff matters. Little details, like electrical resistance levels in the power interconnect, can have a big impact on performance and patient safety. Our Bal Conn® electrical contact, with its ultra-low resistance and minimal heat rise, helps devices—and designers—keep their cool, and manage power more efficiently.
Recently, a seasoned mechanical engineer at Motiv Space Systems told us, “When I work with you, I don’t have to think about seals.” That’s music to our ears, because it means we’re helping designers stay focused on bigger things – like landing a rover on Mars. But maybe you’re not quite ready to let...
In heart assist devices, the small stuff matters. Details like contact electrical resistance in the power interconnect can have a big impact on device life and patient safety. The Bal Conn® electrical contact and SYGNUS® implantable contact system (a turnkey serial Bal Conn® and silicone seal configuration) offer ultra-low contact resistance of <10 milliohms...
The seal you choose for your medical ventilator design or retrofit can have a big impact on its performance. And a custom-engineered seal, one that’s designed to meet your exact requirements, can significantly improve service life, accuracy, and consistency. This short but informative presentation examines the relationship between seal choice and the performance of...
