Machining PEEK
PEEK polymers are on the rise in the medical industry. And it’s no wonder. PEEK offers excellent strength, wear resistance, biocompatibility and biostability.
LaVezzi has broad experience machining PEEK for medical implants in a variety of applications. We understand the processes necessary for getting the most out of this material while maintaining purity and surface finish. We know when to stress-relieve through annealing. We dedicate equipment with proper coolant and tooling to avoid surface contamination when machining.
LaVezzi machines PEEK into the following components:
- Dental healing caps
- Suture anchors
- Maxillofacial implants
- Implantable ports
- Spiked washers
- Spinal implants
- VAD components
- ...and many more
