Nitinol shape setting allows medical device manufacturers to bring highly complex components to life for applications such as heart valve frames, stents, and delivery systems. Our engineers understand the material properties of nitinol and work with our in-house precision tooling center to design and make fixtures to produce even the most complex nitinol shapes.
Shape Setting
Precision Control
When shape setting nitinol, precise control of both temperature and time is essential to achieving successful results. Heating the material to a carefully controlled range enables it to achieve and retain its intended shape ensuring optimal performance in various applications
Automated systems play a key role in maintaining process consistency, which is critical for achieving repeatable product outcomes and preserving the mechanical properties essential to device performance.
Tooling mass plays a significant role in heat transfer, especially when shape setting components for a wide range of device sizes. Whether the tool is extremely small for neurovascular applications or significantly larger for structural implants, we account for the thermal behavior of the tooling itself to deliver consistent outcomes.
Collaborative Design Support
To support efficient and scalable production, we also partner closely with customers during the design phase to ensure components are optimized for manufacturability. This collaborative approach helps avoid costly redesigns and supports reliable performance from prototype through production.
