Balloon Manufacturing Technologies
At MMT, we understand the challenges and intricacies of balloon catheter manufacturing which is why we provide precision solutions that can meet the demands of today’s minimally invasive interventional procedures using balloon catheter systems. We have the solutions for your balloon manufacturing challenges – achieve the lowest profile size, increased inflation and deflation times, and precision trackability.
Balloon Forming
Our Balloon Forming equipment is designed with an innovative heating system that provides even heating and faster cycle times, empowering customers to increase production capacity without sacrificing quality.
The Balloon Forming Machine (BFM-500-S2) has full servo control on the proximal and distal axis.
The Interface BFM-3310 Balloon Forming Machine is a computer-controlled system that expands upon a continued standard of excellence with ever-increasing capabilities and options.
Balloon pleating & Folding
Wrap your balloon to the lowest possible profile with our precision pleating and folding or dual flute wrapping equipment.
Parison Stretching
Stretch or neck down tube parisons in preparation for the balloon forming processes with our precision parison stretching equipment line. Uniform stretched tubing with repeatable results increases thruput.
Stent Crimping
Whether you’re manufacturing drug eluting stents – bioabsorbable stents – self expandable stents our flexible stent crimping systems allow you to successfully crimp stents onto the distal end of a balloon catheter after it is pleated and folded.
Bonding & Welding
Our machines provide accurately controlled heat to perform various tube-to-tube and balloon-to-tube bonds/welds with increased speed and accuracy.
Marker Band Swaging
Precision tracking is key to successfully navigating and deploying a balloon catheter through a patient. Adhering marker bands to a balloon catheter requires high performance equipment to achieve a smooth bond with no striations. Our technology was developed with patient well being in mind.
