Materials Solutions for Medical Device Instrumentation

Stainless steels have been used for decades in the medical industry, for both instrumentation and implants. It is generally understood that corrosion resistance is required for orthopedic implants and instruments, coupled with good levels of strength. However, how such corrosion resistance and strength are derived, or what is currently available to the field is not entirely clear. This paper outlines recent advancements of current materials used in medical instrumentation and introduces new materials and processes available to the medical device industry. It also highlights the evolution materials have taken to align with new regulations, like EU MDR, and new applications, like robotics.
