A Precision Prescription for Research Labs
and Medical Products
The evolving healthcare industry is rich with innovation and its demand
for precision plastics engineering and manufacturing is greater than
ever. Our experience in successfully meeting the demands of this exacting
audience is why the medical and biomedical communities look to PEDI
with their research, life enhancing, and life-saving products.
Just What the Doctor Ordered
The precision principles that produce some of the finest needleless
valve catheter assemblies, infusion device parts, DNA trays, and
surgical device parts are the same principles that allow PEDI to
perform to the highest quality standards set by the Food and Drug
Branch of California (FDB), which partners with the FDA, authorizes
PEDI to operate under its Device Manufacturing License. The meticulous
process of meeting these strict standards for precision, traceability,
and quality control is not unlike any other high-expectation project
we handle on a daily basis.
PEEK Expertise
PEDI has been working with PEEK (polyaryletheretherketone) material for the
manufacture of implantable devices for the past 2 years. We are proud to be one
of the few manufacturers in California injection molding with this material.
PEEK polymer is difficult to work with due to the fact that it requires very
high temperatures to mold, specialized equipment, and is very costly. We have
taken steps to become a technological leader in injection molding with PEEK -
from extensive on-site training with the material manufacturer to acquiring
specialized equipment and hiring toolmakers with PEEK expertise.
