Medical wire and wire-based components
Our comprehensive range of high-grade fine wires and wire-based components are used for applications in various fields of medical technology such as vascular therapy, sensing, and neurostimulation. They are used to sense, stimulate, or transmit signals within the human body or to a receiver outside the body such as a mobile device.
Typical applications are:
- Cardiovascular applications such as pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators, Fractional Flow Reserve, and heart health monitors
- Continuous glucose monitors for persons with diabetes to measure blood sugar levels
- Cochlear implants for people with sensorineural hearing loss.
- Deep brain stimulation for people with Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, or other motion disorders.
- Electromyography (EMG) for people with muscle weakness or numbness due to muscle and/or nerve dysfunction.
- Nitinol instruments for endoscopy and soft robotics and implants.
