Frequently Asked Questions About Our Life Science Applications

Pneumatic Surgical Tools

Seals used in 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 wear and friction under control is critical in preserving the robot's precise accuracy and safety features, which is essential for medical professionals when performing complex surgical procedures with reliability.

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

Polymer, spring-energized seals offer chemical compatibility and reliable sealing to prevent gases, human bodily fluids and liquids from damaging mechanics in pumps, valves, compressors, and surgical tools. As a result of withstanding extreme temperatures and providing friction control for high speeds, the seals ensure lower wear and longer life.
