2. Surgical instruments (e.g., forceps, retractors)
In surgical procedures, forceps are hand instruments that grasp or hold tissue, blood vessels, or other objects. Forceps come in a variety of forms, from fine-tipped forceps for delicate procedures to larger, stronger versions for grasping stiffer tissues.

Retractors: Conversely, retractors are used to retract tissues or organs while providing the surgeon with unobstructed visibility and access to the surgical area.

Precision in design and manufacturing allows surgeons to perform their tasks with precision. Manufacturers use high-quality stainless steel or other durable metals, as well as injection-molded plastic handles or parts, to improve ease of use (ergonomics or insulation) and safety. These precision instruments have multiple functions in operating europe dataset rooms.

3. Endoscopic instruments
They are used in minimally invasive surgeries. The main endoscopic instruments include biopsy forceps, endoscopes , scissors, and clamps. Sterility is non-negotiable, as these tools come in direct contact with internal parts of the body. These tools are also designed for repeated use after proper sterilization.

4. Dental instruments
Instruments such as dental mirrors, explorers, and probes are molded to be precise and reusable. Medical-grade plastics or stainless steel are the preferred materials for manufacturing these equipments. They ensure their durability and ability to withstand sterilization, allowing dentists to perform various procedures with precision and ease.

Patients wear long-term medical devices to correct dental alignment and improve their oral health. They are intended to be worn for long periods of time, typically months to years, and durability and safety are paramount. Stainless steel, ceramic, and medical-grade thermoplastics are commonly used as casting materials because they are biocompatible and resistant to wear and corrosion.

6. Orthopedic implants (e.g. artificial joints)
Artificial joints, or orthopedic implants, are medical devices that replace or support diseased or injured bone components. Joints such as the hip, knee, and shoulder are typical examples.

Durability and biocompatibility are essential for orthopedic implants, which must therefore meet strict safety and efficacy standards. Due to their prolonged presence in the body, they must interact safely with body tissues without causing adverse reactions.

7. Sterilization trays
Sterilization trays are specifically designed to hold, organize and protect surgical instruments during sterilization processes. They must be reusable and withstand extreme pressure and temperatures.
