Frequently Asked Questions About Our Life Science Applications

Pneumatic Surgical Tools

Sealing solutions for surgical handpieces must withstand the rigors of surgical procedures, including high temperatures, high pressure, and repeated sterilization cycles. Omniseal® fluoroelastomer seals protect handpiece electronics and withstand autoclave/sterilization cycles up to 1,000 cycles.

Surgical Robotics

Keeping friction under control is critical to preserve the robot's motion precision and safety features, which is essential for medical professionals performing complex surgical procedures with enhanced precision.

A selection of surgical tools

Meldin® 5000 series PEEK-based materials are used in tiny bearings for hand-held surgical tools Saint-Gobain, and Meldin® injection molded PEEK bearings were used in one of the first full-powered, reusable, battery operated endoscopic staplers in the world.

A collection of 10 spring-energized seals

Spring-energized seals offer chemical compatibility with and reliable sealing to prevent gases, human bodily fluids and liquids from damaging mechanics in pumps, valves, compressors, and surgical tools, plus the ability to withstand extreme temperatures and provide friction control for high speeds, resulting in low wear and long life.
