Clean Room Polymeric Biomedical Product Design for Precision Moulding Technology
Polymeric materials are increasingly being used for biomedical products due to their biocompatibility, cost competitiveness and ease for processing. Contract manufacturers, diversifying their businesses towards high value biomedical device manufacturing, face stringent regulatory and capability constraints. These gaps and challenges are some of the key factors preventing local SMEs from venturing into the biomedical sector. To overcome these gaps, SIMTech and PE COI are organising a consortium to develop capabilities and capacity jointly with our members on clean-room polymeric biomedical device and precision moulding technology.
Objective:
To develop capabilities and capacity on clean-room polymeric biomedical device and precision moulding technology with our members.
Scope:
The capability development consortium consists of 2 phases. Phase 1 involves knowledge transfer relating to design of polymeric biomedical product and clean room injection moulding process development for medical parts. In Phase 2, capability development of moulding a biomedical part in a case study will be conducted on moulding of safety needle, microfluidic chip and moulding of Polylactide (PLA).
In addition, consortium members are given access to SIMTech polymer processing and analytical facilities, use of CAE software and to engage SIMTech’s experienced Research Scientists and Engineers for a total of 5 working days each, or these combinations.
