Unique expertise in processing the "smart" material nitinol

Alleima offers unique expertise in processing the "smart" material nitinol, an alloy which is attractive to the Medtech industry for its unique properties such as shape memory, super elasticity, biocompatibility, and fatigue resistance. At its location in Karlsruhe, Germany, recognized nitinol expert Dr. Bernd Vogel and his team have built up unique capabilities in developing and manufacturing innovative nitinol instruments and implants for minimally invasive surgery.  Due to its specific characteristics, nitinol will also play a key role in surgical robots of the future. In close collaboration with its customers, Alleima innovates and develops state-of-the art medical solutions.

Competence and expertise in electroplating wire and micro-parts

Alleima also offers unique competence and expertise in electroplating wire and micro-parts, another process valuable to the Medtech industry. By applying one or several metallic coatings you can enhance material characteristics such as electrical properties, acid resistance, biocompatibility, or aesthetic appearance depending on your requirements. Electroplating is a cost-effective way to add a thin layer of metal to a component built from another material. Alleima offers barrel and rack plating for parts and reel-to-reel plating of wire. 

Alleima will be exhibiting together with IVAM at Medical Manufacturing Asia and is going to show..
