Tungsten wire ropes are crafted from tungsten, a material known for its excellent anti-fatigue properties, tensile strength, flexibility, and abrasion- resistance. These wire ropes are sturdy and durable, to avoid the need for maintenance or replacement in a long time. They are the preferred material for the miniature mechanical ropes used in surgical robots.
Nitinol shape memory alloy is composed of nearly equal atomic nickel and titanium (i.e. 50:50 at% nickel and titanium), with excellent superplastic and shape memory properties, as well as excellent characteristics of biocompatibility, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, high damping, etc., thus becoming a key material in the field of vascular, orthopedics, spine, urology and dentistry. Applications range from neurovascular stents and heart valve frames to orthopedic nails and disposable suture threading devices.
Nitinol wire has super elasticity and shape memory, and has been used in a wide range of clinical applications, including braided stents, guide wires, blockers, stone removal baskets, medical springs, and dense mesh thrombus filters.
Platinum group alloys are ideal materials for development and electrodes in medical interventions and implants due to their excellent biocompatibility, X-ray impenetrability and corrosion resistance, and are available in customized sizes.
Pt/Ir10&Pt/W8 Ultra-fine flat wire
Pt 90% Ni 10%
Platinum tungsten (PtW8) alloy can be made into embolization coil for the treatment of cerebral aneurysms and the soft tip coil cover of the guide wire
Platinum and its alloys have been widely used in the medical field for half a century. Because of their low corrosiveness, excellent radiopaque function and biocompatibility, platinum has become an ideal material for medical intervention. Commonly used platinum family alloys include pure Pt, PtIr10, PtW8, PtNi10 and so on.
