Springs for the Medical Industry

We understand that springs are vital for the accuracy, safety, and reliability of numerous medical devices. They are particularly important in systems that require precise control, consistent force, and long-lasting performance.

Pacemakers and Implantable Devices: Compression springs play a crucial role in pacemakers, facilitating the transmission of electrical signals to the heart. Made from biocompatible, corrosion-resistant metals to minimise risks of tissue reaction or rejection.

Autoinjectors and Drug Delivery Systems: Springs power injection devices, ensuring accurate dosage and smooth actuation. Reliability and consistency are critical in these applications.

Wearables and Monitoring Devices: In devices such as continuous glucose monitors, springs help maintain steady skin contact, providing comfort over long periods. Constant force springs or compression springs are typically used for these functions.

We supply a comprehensive range of medical springs, including compression, tension, and torsion springs, all of which meet the strictest industry standards. A variety of materials, sizes, and tolerances are available to suit a wide range of medical devices and conditions.
