Micro-Abrasive Blasting Solutions for Bone Screws

Comco’s micro-abrasive blasting equipment to be exhibited at MEDTEC UK

Burbank, CA – Epak Electronics, Comco’s local sales representative for the UK, will display Comco’s micro-abrasive blasting equipment at the MEDTEC UK tradeshow (Stand #311) February 13-14, 2008 in Birmingham, UK.  Visitors will have the opportunity to see the MicroBlaster® which will be on display at the show.

Micro-abrasive blasting is an optimal technology to remove machining defects on bone screws.  It is used to remove burrs from the threaded portion of the screw as well as the broach that could break off when a screw is implanted causing injury.

Micro-abrasive blasting is also an effective for processing other medical parts such as stents, cannulae, guidewires, pacemakers and surgical tools.  Comco’s Applications Lab welcomes sample parts for testing to determine the most efficient method for both new and established applications.  Our engineers have the expertise and complete test facilities to determine the best process.  Find out more about micro-abrasive blasting and sample parts testing at MEDTEC UK, stand #311.
