Implants
 Alberox produces a family of medical implant components. Designed
to provide superior reliability and durability, these components
feature Alberox's innovative ceramic-to-metal seal assembly technology.
Utilizing its application engineering expertise, Alberox custom
manufactures these components to meet the specific needs of the
medical implant market.
Designed with flexibility in mind for custom applications, Alberox's
medical implant family is constructed from a variety of metal components
and high purity Alumina (Al203) ceramic (100% Alumina rubies and
sapphires are also available). This ceramic-to-metal design allows
for cost competitive manufacturing through a consistent repeatable
manufacturing process. The design flexibility, along with the availability
of upper level builds, produces components to the customer's specification
at a lower total cost.
For increased reliability, Alberox's medical implant components
feature robust designs that minimize the risk of device failure.
Offering thermal shock resistance and constructed of biocompatible,
corrosion-resistant materials, the implant feedthrus are ideal for
extreme conditions. The superior electrical properties of the ceramic
allow for smaller feedthrus. For increased customer satisfaction,
all implant assemblies are 100% traceable for both process and
components, and are produced in an ISO9002 certified facility. These
innovations within the family of medical implants allow for the
increased reliability of implant components and contribute to the
application-specific benefits of ceramic-to-metal assemblies.
Instruments
 Alberox, a world leader in the design and manufacture of metal
injection molded components, introduces its laproscopic instruments
for medical applications. Designed to provide superior reliability
and durability, these components feature Alberox's innovative Metal
Injection Molding (MIM) technology. Utilizing its application engineering
expertise, Alberox cost-effectively manufactures these components
to meet the specific needs of the medical market. All of Alberox's
instruments are built to the precise specifications of our customers.
Designed with flexibility in mind for custom applications, Alberox's
laproscopic instruments are constructed from a variety of metals
including 17-4PH, 304L and 316L stainless steels. This MIM process
produces components that require virtually no additional machining
and allows several components to be molded together as one unit.
Also, molds can be created that contain multiple cavities to reduce
tooling costs. This process produces components to the customer's
specification at a lower total cost.
For increased customer satisfaction, all components are 100%
traceable. To further guarantee durability, all laproscopic instruments
are produced in an ISO9002 certified facility.
X-Rays
 Alberox produces a family of medical x-ray components, from anodes
and cathodes to getter assemblies. Designed to provide superior
reliability and durability, these components feature Alberox's innovative
ceramic-to-metal seal assembly technology. Utilizing its application
engineering expertise, Alberox custom manufactures these components
to meet the specific needs of the medical x-ray market.
Designed with flexibility in mind for custom applications, Alberox's
medical x-ray family is constructed from a variety of metal components
and high purity Alumina (Al203) ceramic. This ceramic-to-metal design
allows for cost competitive manufacturing through a consistent repeatable
manufacturing process. The design flexibility, along with the availability
of upper level builds, produces components to the customer's specification
at a lower total cost.
For increased reliability, Alberox's medical x-ray components feature
robust designs that reduce the risk of hermetic leakers. These sturdy
components, engineered without size restrictions, offer thermal
shock resistance for heightened durability. The superior electrical
properties of the components also allow higher power and safety
margin design. These innovations within the family of x-ray components
allow for the longer life of x-ray tubes and contribute to the application-specific
benefits of ceramic-to-metal assemblies.
