Medical-device and surgical-component cleaning

Repeatable cleaning processes for medical components.

Match ultrasonic energy, aqueous or solvent cleaning, rinsing and drying to component geometry, soils, materials and documented production requirements.

Cleaning before the next critical step

Medical-component cleaning should be engineered around the actual part and process. eChem helps define repeatable cleaning before inspection, coating, assembly or a separately validated downstream process.

Fine features and difficult geometry

Reach lumens, blind holes, joints and complex surfaces with a process chosen for the component rather than a generic cycle.

Polishing compounds, oils and particulate

Select equipment and chemistry for the soils present while protecting metals, plastics and delicate finishes.

Consistency from batch to batch

Control time, temperature, concentration, loading, rinsing and drying so operators can reproduce the process.

Equipment and chemistry pathways

Review the technologies most often considered for precision medical components, then use representative parts to determine the final process.

Application evaluation

Prove the cleaning process with representative parts.

A useful evaluation defines what clean means, accounts for the next manufacturing step and records the variables required for repeatability. Cleaning is not a substitute for sterilization or a customer-specific validation program.
