Engineered to the Highest Standards for Healthcare

From implants to surgical instruments, TextureJet’s Electrochemical Jet Machining (ECJM) technology delivers clean, precise, and scalable manufacturing solutions for the medical device industry. Designed for critical components, our process ensures regulatory compliance, biocompatibility, and exceptional quality.

The medical sector demands uncompromising precision, cleanliness, and reliability. TextureJet’s ECJM process meets these standards with a non-contaminating, water-soluble process that avoids harsh chemicals, keeping components biocompatible and ready for clinical use.

Why TextureJet for Medical Device Manufacturing?

1. Non-Contaminating, Biocompatible Process
   Our ECJM technology eliminates harsh chemicals. Electrolyte residues are water-soluble, ensuring a clean, biocompatible manufacturing environment suitable for even the most sensitive medical components.
2. Precision for Complex Components
   Selective machining of implants and instruments allows for intricate, customised designs without cathode tooling or masking. The result: consistent quality, reduced complexity, and faster production.
3. No Heat-Affected Zones
   Unlike laser-based methods, ECJM avoids heat stress, maintaining material integrity, fatigue resistance, and long-term performance in critical parts.
4. Flexible Depth and Definition Control
   Fine control over machining depth and definition enables high-contrast part marking and precise geometries, even in challenging locations.
5. Ideal for Medical-Grade Materials
   Efficiently processes titanium, stainless steel, and cobalt alloys. These difficult-to-machine substrates achieve clean edges and surfaces essential for safe, durable implants.
