Objective
A medical device manufacturer specializing in cardiovascular and vascular surgical applications in the Atlanta, GA region needed to evaluate a cleaning process for plastic and stainless steel operational handles. The objective was to remove manufacturing residues and surface contaminants while maintaining the integrity of both molded and machined components.
| Industry | Medical/Pharmaceutical |
| Part Description | Medical Operational Handles |
| Fabrication Method | Cast/Molded, CNC-Machined |
| Material | Plastic-Machined, Stainless Steel |
| Process Technology | Cleaning/Descaling |
| Equipment Type | Cleaners/Dryers |
Solution
Bel Air evaluated an ultrasonic cleaning process for plastic and stainless steel operational handles used in cardiovascular and vascular surgical device applications.
The components required effective removal of manufacturing residues and surface contaminants while maintaining the integrity of both molded and machined parts.
Using an ultrasonic cleaning system, the parts were cleaned in a manner that could reach complex geometries and difficult-to-access surfaces. The process provided consistent cleaning across multiple component types while supporting the cleanliness requirements of medical device manufacturing.
The result was a repeatable cleaning process that removed contaminants while maintaining part quality and appearance.
