In the specialized field of medical implant manufacturing, precision is paramount. The selection of coolant is crucial, especially in CNC machining of advanced materials like Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE). Traditional coolants, such as flood coolants and Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL), have been industry standards. However, their limitations have driven the development of advanced solutions like Fusion's Pure-Cut® technology.
Pure-Cut® represents Fusion's proprietary methodology for machining high-performance materials, harnessing the power of supercritical CO₂ (sCO₂) to redefine coolant effectiveness. This innovation stands apart by delivering substantial advantages in PEEK machining and UHMWPE machining:
Cleanliness: Pure-Cut® ensures unparalleled cleanliness, crucial for eliminating contaminants in critical medical components. Maintaining particle counts below 1500 nanograms, Pure-Cut® consistently meets the stringent cleanliness specifications required by medical implant manufacturers.
Precision: Achieving unrivaled dimensional accuracy and 95% burr-free outcomes, Pure-Cut® guarantees precise machining that effortlessly meets the tight tolerance demands of medical applications.
Speed: With a guaranteed 50% cycle time reduction for medical plastics machining, Pure-Cut® enhances operational efficiency, enabling manufacturers to fulfill production requirements promptly and reliably.
Tool Life: By extending tool life compared to conventional methods, Pure-Cut® significantly minimizes operational costs associated with tool replacements and reduces cutting forces applied to tools.
Operational Improvements: Pure-Cut® is more than a CNC machining coolant - it's a complete cutting solution supported by our team of engineers, scientists, and manufacturing experts. We'll get you up and running in as little as 6 weeks with no up-front capital required.
The selection of CNC machining coolant profoundly influences the quality, efficiency, and economic viability of machining processes for medical implants. Pure-Cut® not only meets but exceeds these expectations, offering a sustainable and precise solution that sets a new benchmark in coolant technology.
Fusion's Pure-Cut® technology emerges as the premier choice for manufacturers engaged in the machining of PEEK and UHMWPE for medical applications. This innovative coolant solution elevates machining processes to unprecedented levels of efficiency, reliability, and excellence, empowering manufacturers to deliver superior medical implants with confidence and consistency.
