Vitrectomy & Phacoemulsification Handpieces
Surgical Handpieces used in Cataract, Refractive Surgery and Vitreoretinal Systems for Ophthalmic Surgery
Autocam Medical can manufacture all internal machined components for ultrasonic phaco and vitrectomy handpieces. In addition to high-precision machining of all varieties of Stainless Steel, Titanium and other medical-grade specialty alloys, we perform a wide variety of ancillary operations, all under one roof; these include honing, extruded honing, bead blasting, lapping and laser welding. Our sophisticated in-house toolmaking capabilities enable us to develop highly customized, innovative part designs to meet our customers' needs. We can laser-weld assemblies if necessary, or, in many cases, cut components out of one piece of raw material, making the handpiece stronger and adding to its total value.
When customers involve the Autocam Medical engineering team early in the product design process to consult on manufacturability, we can significantly reduce the costs associated with bringing a product to market.
Through concurrent engineering and partnerships with customer R&D groups, Autocam Medical delivers cost-effective production methods and decreased cycle times. From the initial design through the eventual market launch, our experience in precision machining, metallurgy and gauging techniques, can assist in improving the time to market for products in clinical trial testing and validation procedure. This is especially critical in FDA-approved products that cannot be altered after approval. Autocam Medical through use of lean manufacturing techniques streamlines production and can often shorten delivery times and lower costs. For additional efficiency, Autocam Medical has invested heavily in a wide variety of CAM software technology enabling us to create CAM programs from any customer models created in native software drawing packages.
