Blood Oxygenators
Manufacturing of blood oxygenators requires that the UV adhesive be cured evenly, without inducing stress cracking in the polycarbonate material. Lumen Dynamics' OmniCure® technology offers unique benefits over and above standard UV curing, ensuring controlled, even and repeatable curing of the oxygenator for optimal assembly of specialized disposable medical devices. The OmniCure® S2000 is the leading UV spot curing system for medical device assembly where lives depend on a repeatable curing process.

Assembly of Blood Oxygenators |
|
UV spot curing provides a reliable and repeatable assembly process; important in any manufacturing process, but essential in medical device manufacturing. This application note provides a brief overview of the important role of UV spot curing in the assembly of blood oxygenators used in open heart surgery. Manufacturers can benefit from using a UV curable adhesive along with the OmniCure® S2000 UV Spot Curing System to optimize the assembly of the oxygenator housing.
