Designing a catheter with laser-cut hypotube reinforcement takes more than optimizing the cut pattern. This session looks at how liner materials, bonding, and processing choices affect the flexibility and performance…

See what happens when promising medical device designs meet real-world process, material, and scale-up challenges, with five key takeaways from technical experts at MPP East.

Lubricious polymer compounds are giving MedTech engineers another way to build low-friction performance directly into extruded tubing. Explore how these materials can create durable inner- and outer-surface lubricity while offering an alternative to traditional liners and post-extrusion coatings.

Catheter liner selection is no longer just about choosing the lowest coefficient of friction. In this episode, Benny Cheung of Dynaflex Technologies shares where PTFE still excels and how emerging…

How do you narrow product feature options without testing every possible combination? Watch the webinar with Applied Plastics exploring DOE through a real-world coating development example, and receive a downloadable…

Micro molding demands a different approach to tooling, materials, processing, and metrology. In this episode, RPM Micro Solutions explains how earlier DFM and integrated engineering can help MedTech teams identify…

In this Chamfr Unboxed video, compare Zeus PTFE Sub-Lite-Wall™ Liners, StreamLiner™ NG Liners, Tie Layer, and FluoroPEELZ™ peelable heat shrink. See how these technologies can support lower-profile catheter designs, stronger…

PTFE alternatives are advancing, with MedTech companies developing credible, application-specific solutions. See what’s setting the bar for alternatives and why replacing PTFE is more complex than a simple material swap for catheter liners, ePTFE applications, coatings, and sheaths.

In catheter development and manufacturing, inconsistent heat shrink removal can increase operator dependence, scrap, rework, and risk to delicate assemblies. In this sponsored technical blog post, Junkosha explains how FEP based peelable heat shrink tubing, engineered for controlled linear peelability, helps R&D and manufacturing teams support more repeatable bonding, forming, and lamination processes from development through scaled production.

Polymer selection shapes far more than a medical device’s baseline specs. In this episode, Saint-Gobain breaks down how stiffness, toughness, bonding, temperature, chemical exposure, and sterilization all influence catheter and…

Lubrizol is now on Chamfr with medical-grade silicone tubing, sheeting, and films for MedTech R&D teams. Source small quantities, compare standard sizes, and reduce friction for early testing, prototyping, design verification preparation, and supplier down-selection.
