Asahi Intecc Co., Ltd. is a Japanese medical device manufacturer specializing in the manufacture of flexible cables and tubes with high torsional stiffness. In addition to individual cable and pipe components, we also provide complete coating and assembly services. With our extensive experience in the field of medical devices, our internal drawing, wire forming, coating, torque and assembly technologies provide a wide range of options for your equipment.

Asahi Intecc customized extruded thermoplastic and fluoropolymers of FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene), PTFE, PFA, PE (polyethylene), NYLON, PEBAX (polyether block amide), TPU, PU (polyurethane) and PP Lumen. For the size and wall thickness range of each material, please contact us for more information. The tubing can be provided on a reel or a precise cut length.

Polymer extrusion concentricity and surface conditions

Manufactured in an ISO 13485 approved 100,000 clean room environment, Asahi Intecc provides the highest level of consistent concentricity for single cavity extrusions. The concentricity of the polymer tube results in stronger burst pressure resistance and easier assembly of other components. Compared with the usual eccentric shapes of other polymer pipes on the global market, the concentricity of our extruded polymer shafts naturally results in a consistently excellent appearance. In addition to the concentricity of extrusion, we are also concerned with the surface conditions of the polymer without gel and melt fracture. Since Asahi Intecc has internal polymer compounding capabilities and can choose small and medium-sized twin-screw extruders, we can choose equipment and conditions to optimize the concentricity and surface conditions of the polymer extrudate.

The tube can be used in situations that require proximal push and rotation and a fine flexible distal tip to enter the treatment area. As part of our OEM/ODM and assembly services, the multi-segment flexibility provided on our conduit is seamless, eliminating the need to manually connect joints between two selected materials with different Shore hardness levels.

Provide thin-walled polymer tubes made of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), PFA (perfluoroalkoxy), PE and ETFE (ethylene tetrafluoroethylene). Thin-walled tubes can be customized for multi-layer tubes and braided tubes, and are usually used as linings for our 1-1 torque stainless steel hollow shafts. For detailed information about your challenging delivery systems, materials, machinery, chemistry and dimensional requirements, please contact us.

Asahi Intecc provides FEP, PTFE, PFA, PE (HDPE-high density polyethylene, LDPE-low density polyethylene), NYLON, (Grilamid, polyamide, polyamide elastomer, PEBAX) for medical pipe manufacturers and polymer processors ) Composite service of TPU material, PP (polypropylene), small quantity, reasonable price and short delivery time. Small batches (5kg) with excellent consistency and dispersion can be mixed or granulated into various colors. Contrast media options include bismuth trioxide Bi2O3, barium sulfate (BaSO4), and bismuth subcarbonate (BiO) 2CO3, which can be used for observation under fluoroscopy.

It is provided on the spool, and the mandrel is coated with polytetrafluoroethylene through a dipping process. The mandrel size ranges from 0.45mm to 2.30mm. PTFE wall thickness (one side can range from 0.008 mm to 0.012 mm (0.00031" to 0.00047" or 8 to 12 microns). PTFE is chemically etched on catheter delivery systems, micro catheters, and other delivery systems, where instruments or guide wires Through the PTFE-coated lumen.

 Multilayer tube-polymer and braided reinforcement (nylon, tungsten, stainless steel)

Nylon, tungsten or stainless steel braids can be woven on lubricated, low-friction, drug-resistant PTFE linings with silver mandrels to provide torque response, kinking, and fluid pressure resistance (salt water, blood, drugs, chemicals, nutrients) . The pitch and the number of wefts can be adjusted on the braid to obtain customized flexibility, kink resistance and torque characteristics.

 Mandrel + PTFE thin wall tube + braid

Stainless steel braid for catheter shaft and nylon braid for catheter shaft

Mandrel + PTFE thin-walled tube + braid is provided on the spool.

These are the components of the microcatheter and the guide catheter.

ACTONE cable duct, with inner tube (PTFE, PE, ETFE, PEBAX) or extruded

Fully squeeze torque assembly with ACTONE cable tube, with high performance PTFE or ETFE lining. According to wall thickness, flexibility and 1-1 torque requirements, the inner tube can be connected by adhesives at both ends.

ASAHI components plus internal and external coating

Asahi Intecc provides extrusion, dip coating and heat shrink (1mm to 1.6mm recovery inner diameter in PTFE or FEP) solutions for the development of conveying systems with drive cables, ACT-ONE cable ducts and torque coils to improve lubrication It has high adhesive strength and high adhesive strength. Customers can enjoy a more stable supply base and excellent in-house expertise in metal and polymer solutions.
