Medical and Dental Device Industry
In the medical and dental device industry, precision, dependability, and quality are essential. Manufacturers designing and creating a dental drill that rotates at sufficient speed and accuracy do so under the strictest possible guidelines. How can dentists and doctors perform surgery or even regular cleanings or tests without being sure? These medical professionals cannot function unless they’re confident their instruments are sterile, correctly calibrated, and fabricated by a trusted manufacturer.
Medical and dental device designers solve problems. Whether they’re conceiving medical diagnostic equipment, medical imaging equipment, or medical surgical tools, they follow an exacting procedure. They consult with medical and dental practitioners and experts first. Then, they conceive an instrument, build a prototype, test it, and if it passes the test, they engineer, manufacture, and distribute it.
It doesn’t end there. Continuous evaluation and improvement of the device and its manufacture are part of the process. This constant refining often requires redesign and new parts. It’s important for designers to have a trusted source for every one of these parts. From the original schematic to the final concept to the refined model, and the one after that, engineers need bearings to help their inventions rotate faster, function well during heavy use, and move steadily with little or no vibration.
Alpine Bearing distributes the highest quality miniature and instrument bearings to medical and dental device fabricators and manufacturers. We buy the best from the best. Barden, GRW, IJK, JAF, NHBB, Myonic, and NMB are just some of the top bearings manufacturers supplying us.
Whether you’re creating a prototype for a new surgical tool or mass-producing diagnostic equipment, Alpine’s bearing experts will draw on their years of experience and help you choose the bearings you need. Let our sales engineers supply your engineers.
