Catheter Forming & Machines

 

Catheter Balloon Forming - is a specialised, precision manufacturing process that shapes a thermoplastic tube into a balloon using heat, (pressure) and controlled stretching within a precision mould.  The procedure involves processes such as necking to create a parison, then heating and expanding the material to create specific atraumatic shapes.  Catheter balloons are used for medical procedures such as angioplasty or stent delivery.  With key factors being material quality, temperature and process stability for consistent and reliable performance.
