What is a bone screw?

The bone screw is a device that is frequently used in orthopaedical surgery like bone traction, bone puncture, internal fixation, etc. Usually, after fracture, the traditional fixation material is often made of stainless steel, titanium and its alloy, but long-term implantation will cause erosion, allergy, and lead to osteoporosis, and most of them need to be removed by secondary surgery.

In recent years, there are more bone screws and fixation brackets made of biodegradable materials, which can be used for surgery and healing without the need for removal surgery.

"Replacing steel with plastic" helps to shape precision medical parts

How can the degradable materials match the material characterstics and performance of metal? At the same time, orthopedic medical devices are highly technical and precise, how to achieve precision and compact injection molding? These are the problems to be solved.

As a leader in precision injection molding in China, Zhafir can meet almost all applications in the medical industry - from high quality molding of high-end precision parts to efficient and stable production of multi-cavity high-capacity molds, including cleanroom solutions equipped with a laminar flow box and guarantees a fast time-to-market for production.
