The medical field is not the same as before. The advancement in technology has drastically revolutionized the industry. The change is more obvious in the electronic diagnostic, research and treatment systems and tools. Several sophisticated electronic devices/instruments are being launched day by day to ease various medical procedures. This growth is largely benefiting the PCB industry, as without PCBs new inventions wouldn’t be impossible. To support the varying needs of the medical instrument/diagnostic machine manufactures, today’s PCB fabricators make extremely simple to highly complicated printed circuit boards. With specialized high-speed laminates, copper and aluminum substrates, ceramics, and coating, PCB fabricators make the boards that best suit the applications of the medical industry. Are you interested to know the various applications of these printed circuit boards in the medical industry. Read this post to know more.
Application Examples
Where are printed circuit boards used in the industry? As simply answered, boards are everywhere. Starting from a simple flow rate systems to the advanced vesicle pressure measurement system, PCBs show their presence. They go in the making of the following instruments:
- Blood sugar monitors
- Electrocardiograph
- Heart monitors
- Body temperature devices
- CT scan systems
- EMG activity systems
- Infusion fluid controls
- Peristaltic infusion technology
- Blood pressure monitors
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Scanning System
- X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) Scanning System
- Gas analyzer
- Digital cell counting device
- Heart pacemaker analyzer
- Ultrasonic devices
- Laser therapy device
- Fluid level controller
- Neurological stimulating device
- Digital temperature monitors
- Ear, Nose, Throat (ENT) diagnostic instrument
- Medical Data Transmitters
- Gas chromatography devices
Customization Option
Customization is today’s trend. The medical industry also opts the same when it comes to PCBs. The customers can provide the right specifications for board size in X” direction, board size in Y” direction, total number of holes, smallest trace and spacing size (inches), board material, number of layers, surface plating and so on to the manufacturer. The manufacturer thus works according to the specifications given and deliver the product that rightly suits your applications.
However, to get the high-quality boards that suit the medical industry environments, it is important to partner with a manufacturer with decades of experience in the medical printed circuit boards. Rigiflex Technology, Inc. is a leading and has positioned itself as a trusted manufacturer who assembles PCBs following all regulatory guidance and requirements relevant to your industry.
