Injection mold parts for medical devices are highly specialized and impose precise, detailed requirements for sterility and regulatory requirements that exceed those of other industries. The controlled environment of a dust-free injection molding shop can help ensure that particulate matter, namely dust, airborne organic matter or vaporized particles, does not contaminate the plastics that will make up the medical device components. Injection molds are used in many different industrial applications: automotive, industrial, connectors, electronics, consumer, defense and transportation. However, medical device mold injection molding is subject to greater scrutiny for cleanliness and, in some cases, sterility.
