Medical Devices

Carbon fiber is a high-strength, high-modulus fiber material with many excellent properties, so it is widely used in the field of medical devices.
Orthopedic-navigation-operating-table

Orthopedic navigation operating table

Application: 
Mainly used for operating table tops, supporting brackets, operating table positioning devices (clamps, brackets) and parts to be penetrated by radiation.
 
Advantages

Radiotransmittance

In orthopedic navigation surgery, X-ray, CT and other imaging equipment are often needed for intraoperative positioning and monitoring. Carbon fiber has good radiotransmittance. Using it to make certain supporting structures or transparent windows in the operating table can reduce the absorption and scattering of radiation, improve the quality of imaging images, and help doctors observe the situation of the surgical site more accurately, thereby improving the accuracy of the operation.

High precision

Carbon fiber materials have good dimensional stability and low expansion coefficient, which can ensure that the operating table and its related components maintain high-precision size and shape under different environmental conditions, providing precise positioning and operation basis for orthopedic navigation surgery, helping to improve the success rate of surgery and patient treatment effects.

Anti-electromagnetic interference

Carbon fiber has certain anti-electromagnetic interference performance. In orthopedic surgery using some electromagnetic navigation equipment or other electronic instruments, it can reduce the interference to the signals of these equipment, ensure the normal operation of the navigation system and other electronic equipment, and ensure the smooth progress of the operation.

Durability

Carbon fiber has high strength and corrosion resistance, can withstand various stresses and wear during surgery, is not easy to damage, and can withstand routine disinfection and sterilization treatments. It has a long service life and can reduce the maintenance and replacement costs of the operating table.
 

Lightweight

Carbon fiber is light in weight, which can reduce the overall weight of the operating table, making it easier to move and adjust the position of the operating table. It also reduces the physical exertion of medical staff during the operation and improves the efficiency and comfort of the operation.

Biocompatibility

It may come into contact with the patient during surgery. Its good biocompatibility can reduce the risk of allergic or other adverse reactions in patients and improve the safety of patients during surgery.
 

Excellent load-bearing capacity

It can bear the patient's weight and various external forces during the operation, while ensuring that the operating table will not be deformed during use, providing stable support for the operation.
 

Rehabilitation equipment

Application: 
Carbon fiber is often used to make prostheses, orthotics, walkers and other rehabilitation equipment.

Advantages

High strength

Carbon fiber has high strength and can withstand large external forces without deformation, which is very important for supporting the patient's body weight, providing the necessary correction force and sports support, and ensuring the safety and reliability of rehabilitation equipment during use. Carbon fiber is often used to make the joints and support structure of prostheses.
Rehabilitation-equipment

High elasticity

It also has good elasticity and can simulate the elastic characteristics of human tissue , making the interaction between rehabilitation equipment and the human body more natural. For example, in prostheses and orthoses, it can better adapt to the movement and posture changes of the human body and reduce adverse effects on the body.
 

Lightweight

The density of carbon fiber is much lower than that of metal materials. Using carbon fiber to manufacture rehabilitation equipment can significantly reduce the weight of the equipment. For patients, lighter rehabilitation equipment is easier to operate and carry, can reduce physical exertion during use, and improve the enthusiasm and effect of rehabilitation training.

Aesthetics

Carbon fiber material has a unique appearance and texture. The rehabilitation equipment made of it is simple and beautiful in appearance. Compared with traditional metal or plastic rehabilitation equipment, it is more in line with the aesthetic needs of patients, helps to improve patients' psychological acceptance of using rehabilitation equipment, and enhances their confidence in returning to normal life.

Good corrosion resistance

Carbon fiber has excellent corrosion resistance, can withstand the erosion of sweat, disinfectant and other substances, is not easy to rust and damage, and can ensure the stability of the performance of rehabilitation equipment during long-term use.

Durability

Its durability is also very good, and it can withstand frequent use and various complex use environments, reducing the replacement frequency of rehabilitation equipment and reducing the cost of use for patients.
 

Personalized customization

Carbon fiber materials can be customized according to the patient's specific body shape and rehabilitation needs through processes such as mold forming, better fitting the body, providing precise support and correction, improving rehabilitation effects and comfort.
Wheelchairs

Wheelchair

Application: 
Carbon fiber is mainly used in wheelchairs in the frame, rims and backrests.

Corrosion resistance

Carbon fiber has good corrosion resistance and is not affected by sweat, rain, daily cleaning and disinfection products, etc. It is not easy to rust and corrode. It can always maintain a good appearance and performance. Even when used in humid or harsh environments, it can ensure the quality and safety of the wheelchair.

Beautiful and fashionable

Carbon fiber itself has a unique texture and luster, and its appearance is exquisite and beautiful. Wheelchairs made of carbon fiber often give people a high-end and fashionable feeling. • Satisfy users' aesthetic needs for product appearance and enhance users' self-confidence.
 

Good comfort

Carbon fiber has a certain elasticity, which can play a certain shock-absorbing role during the movement of the wheelchair, reduce the impact of road bumps on the user's body, and improve riding comfort.
 
 

Lightweight

Carbon fiber has a low density, so wheelchair parts made of it are light. The overall weight reduction of the wheelchair makes it easier for users to push it by themselves, especially for people with weak upper limb strength, which can reduce physical exertion and improve travel convenience.

High strength and durability

Carbon fiber has excellent strength and rigidity, can withstand greater pressure and tension, and is not easily damaged. Even under long-term frequent use and complex road conditions, the wheelchair can maintain good performance, extend its service life, and reduce the frequency and cost of wheelchair replacement.

Surgical instruments

Application: 
Carbon fiber surgical knife handles, retractors, trocars, needle holders, surgical instrument boxes.
Surgical-equipment

High strength and light weight

Carbon fiber has high strength and can withstand various forces during surgery without deformation or damage. At the same time, its light weight helps to reduce the burden on doctors’ hands during long operations, improves the accuracy and flexibility of operations, and reduces surgical errors that may be caused by hand fatigue.

Corrosion resistance

Carbon fiber has excellent corrosion resistance and can withstand the erosion of disinfectants, cleaning agents and other chemicals commonly used in surgery. It is not easy to rust and corrode, which facilitates the cleaning, disinfection and maintenance of surgical instruments, prolongs the service life of the instruments and reduces medical costs.

Good radiation penetration

In some surgeries that require the use of radiation for intraoperative positioning or monitoring, surgical instruments made of carbon fiber have good radiation penetration, which will not affect the quality of radiographic imaging and help doctors accurately observe the situation at the surgical site.

Good biocompatibility

Carbon fiber has good compatibility with human tissue and will not cause immune response or other adverse reactions in the human body.
 

Design flexibility

Carbon fiber can be made into surgical instruments of various shapes and sizes through a variety of molding processes to meet the needs of different surgeries and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of surgeries.
