Injection Molding Solutions for the Medical and Dental Industries
Innovate Faster in Medical & Dental Manufacturing with Compact, Precision Injection Molding
High-quality and consistent outputs are critical for medical products where safety and compliance are non-negotiable. APSX’s small-footprint injection molding machines are ideal for producing high-precision components in medical and dental applications. From prototyping new devices to short-run production of specialized parts, APSX-PIM combines reliability, cost-effectiveness, and ease-of-use to help you navigate stringent regulatory environments.
Advantages of APSX Machines for Medical and Dental Applications
High Precision & Consistency Maintain strict tolerances critical for implantable devices, surgical tools, and dental components. With the high-end sensor technologies, consistent repeatability is standard with the APSX-PIM V2 injection machine.
Rapid Prototyping & Testing Quickly mold new product concepts in-house, speeding up R&D and regulatory approval processes. The whole process can be completed in ONE-DAY from 3D drawing to holding a finished plastic part on your hands. You have options to use an aluminum mold or a 3D printed mold.
Cost-Effective Small Batch Production Ideal for limited-run custom components or pilot studies without the high overhead of large injection molding operations. Remember, you don’t need to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars or master a massive industrial injection molding machine just to produce five sample plastic parts. Once you finalize your part design, you can still use the APSX-PIM to make 1000 parts a day! If your part is small to use a multiple cavity mold, multiply that 1000 parts by the number of cavities.
Compact, Lab-Friendly Design Easily fits into R&D labs or clean-room environments with minimal setup. The APSX-PIM can be placed on a 4' by 2' bench or table. There is only one cable to connect to 110V power. There are no water or shop air connections required. It is a very clean and simple set up. You can make your first test part in 30 minutes.
Broad Range of Biocompatible Resins Support various medical-grade thermoplastics to ensure compliance and safety. Here are some sample materials that you can choose from.
Potential Applications & Specific Parts
Surgical Instrument Components Precision handles, clips, or housings for single-use or reusable devices and disposable collectors.
Dental Trays & Orthodontic Parts Customized trays, aligners, or brackets for patient-specific treatments. In these highly regulated markets, development cycles involve multiple rounds of testing and validation. 3D-printed molds offer a cost-effective way to produce functional prototypes (e.g., instrument housings, dental trays) for testing, clinical evaluations, or short pilot runs.
Diagnostic Device Housings Durable, sterile-friendly enclosures for portable or bench-top medical devices.
Implantable Prototyping Rapid, in-house prototyping of implants and related hardware under controlled conditions. Orthodontic brackets or surgical instruments with Metal Injection Molding PIM-MIM.
Discover how APSX-PIM can help you accelerate innovation, reduce costs, and maintain the highest quality standards in medical and dental production. Let’s push healthcare forward—together!
