Tight tolerance precision gear manufacturing for medical, biotech, and medical device applications involves creating gears that are extremely accurate and precise in their measurements and performance. Many of our gears are used in these applications as our Mikron and Hamai gear hobbing machines can offer miniature gears as small as 0.05″ in diameter. We have manufactured components for many different medical devices that require tight tolerance precision gears and can produce the most complex miniature gear designs to your specifications. All critical contact surfaces will be held to your tolerances (up to 0.0001″).
The challenges in this type of manufacturing arise from the need for gears to meet very strict specifications. Medical and biotech applications demand gears with extremely tight tolerances, meaning they must be manufactured to exact specifications with very little room for error. Achieving such precision consistently can be challenging.
We utilize advanced machining technologies and processes to achieve the required tight tolerances consistently. This includes employing high-precision CNC (computer numerical control) machines and quality control systems to ensure accurate and repeatable gear manufacturing.
By offering expertise in precision gear manufacturing, customized design capabilities, and a commitment to quality and compliance, American Precision Gear provides valuable solutions to the challenges faced in tight tolerance precision gear manufacturing for medical, biotech, and medical device applications.
