The substrates utilized in today’s catheter designs, such as PEBA and Nylon 12, are often difficult to bond to. If components are not adhered properly, failure of the finished device can occur. To avoid this from happening, medical device engineers are vested in finding adhesives that meet stringent testing criteria including excellent performance in pull strength, peel strength, burst pressure, and accelerated aging.
Typical Catheter Types: Angioplasty, Butterfly VI, Ablation, Urinary.
Detail Applications
- Bonding latex balloons onto (also multi-lumen) tubes for angioplasty
- Manifold/ Lumen Bonding
- Hypotube/ Hub Bonding
- Balloon/ Lumen Bonding (especially bonding latex balloons onto (also multi-lumen) tubes for angioplasty)
- Catheter Assembly.

OUR SOLUTIONS
To solve this problem, we are confident to introduce our assembly solution and the one-stop guideline as follows:
Adhesive
The three most commonly used medical grade adhesive chemistries for needle manufacturing are:
- Light Cure Acrylics (both UV cure and LED cure)
- Light Cure Cyanoacrylates
- One-Part Heat Cure Epoxies
Automated Dispensing System for Single Part Adhesive
Though the benefits of fast-setting adhesives, these moisture-cure adhesives can be a challenge, especially when your assembly process requires precise, repeatable dispensing. See details of the Different Dispensing Systems
UV or Heat Curing System
Because UV light of varied spectral output penetrates glass, polypropylene, and many other plastics, both flat and complex 3D-shaped parts are easily bonded instantaneously. By ensuring superior bonding at higher speeds, UV curing produces quality assemblies faster and less expensively. UV Curing System Details here
