Tip Forming
Precision Medical Tubing Services Tip Forming involves shaping and forming the tips of medical-grade tubing materials to meet the specific requirements of medical device applications. The composition of the tubing used in this process varies depending on the desired properties and performance characteristics required for the medical device. Typically, medical tubing is made from biocompatible polymers such as polyethylene (PE), polyurethane (PU), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), silicone, or thermoplastic elastomers (TPE). These materials are selected for their flexibility, durability, and compatibility with bodily fluids and tissues.
- Tip Shapes: Demax offers a variety of tip shapes to suit different medical device requirements, including tapered tips, rounded tips, bullet tips, and custom-shaped tips. We can create tips with precise dimensions and angles to meet your application needs.
- Tubing Compatibility: Our tip forming services are compatible with a wide range of medical-grade tubing materials, including polyethylene (PE), polyurethane (PU), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), silicone, and more. We ensure that the tip forming process maintains the integrity and properties of the tubing material, preserving biocompatibility and performance.
- Tolerance and Accuracy: Demax maintains tight tolerances and high levels of accuracy in the tip forming process, ensuring that the dimensions and geometry of the tips are consistent and precise. Our advanced equipment and quality control measures guarantee uniformity and reliability in formed medical tubing tips.
- Catheters: Formed tubing tips are commonly used in catheter assemblies to facilitate smooth insertion, navigation, and positioning within the body’s natural cavities.
- Endoscopic Devices: Formed tubing tips are utilized in endoscopic instruments for improved maneuverability, visualization, and control during minimally invasive procedures.
- Guidewires: Formed tubing tips serve as components in guidewires to facilitate navigation through blood vessels and other anatomical structures during diagnostic and interventional procedures.
- Biopsy Devices: Formed tubing tips are employed in biopsy forceps and other tissue sampling devices to enhance precision and control during tissue collection procedures.

PTFE Liner
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) is a synthetic fluoropolymer that is used as a liner in catheters due to its unique properties. PTFE has a very low coefficient of friction and is a highly durable material with excellent tensile strength. Catheter liners made of PTFE can withstand the stresses of use in medical devices and resist breaking or tearing.
PTFE is used as a liner in catheters because it provides a smooth, low-friction surface that helps reduce the risk of infection and tissue damage. They are also biocompatible so that most people won’t experience an allergic reaction or any negative response.
