If you work in a subset of the health care field that already uses devices with uncommon shapes or functions, reaction injection molding (RIM) was made with you in mind. A large part of Rimnetics’ industry specialty lies in producing durable, customizable medical device enclosures. Keep reading to discover why RIM works so well for the health care industry and its ever-growing technological demands.
Perfect Material Match
Producing these types of products is one of Rimnetics’ core competencies. Whether it’s a DNA sequencer, a sample analyzer, or any other medical device, RIM achieves all of its advantages here. With various materials, rated UL94-V0 for flammability, all key requirements for these kinds of parts are being met. Complex three-dimensional parts, with appealing industrial design and manufactured at medium-high volumes, make RIM the ideal process choice.
Benefits of Polyurethane Foam
Producing a medical device enclosure with polyurethane foam instead of another plastic or steel is advantageous for several reasons. One, polyurethane is often cheaper to produce and manufacture, giving it an economic leg up against traditionally used materials. Two, as opposed to metal or steel, this substance tends to absorb noise instead of generating it, which offers a user-friendly experience. Three, it can be quickly molded into geometrically demanding shapes without expensive or time-consuming machining processes.
Maximizing Budget, Safety, and Performance
Polyurethane foam represents the best of multiple worlds when it comes to materials that need to offer numerous functional capacities. No longer does medical machinery need to be clunky and outdated in appearance. Our flexibility with color, shape, density, and size allows us to bring your product design to its physical form. With the quick turnarounds our team achieves, you won’t be waiting excessive amounts of time like you would with other structural material manufacturers.
