Laser cutting machines are one of the most commonly used tools in the medical device manufacturing industry.
The laser welding process is common in the manufacture and design of many medical instruments including heart valves, stents and implants.
A laser beam is the preferred method because of the stringent dimensional tolerances, supreme edge quality and high-volume production required in the medical industry.
Equipment such as surgical beds, trolleys, waste bins and drug cabinets have all gone through a laser cutting process at some point, as these items must be safe whilst also being easy to clean and maintain.
Here to assist with medical requirements
Yorkshire Laser & Fabrication work closely with a wide variety of medical customers, helping them to develop surgically safe medical products and materials.
Examples include the creation of patient monitoring equipment and hospital infrastructure, as well as playing a hand in the development of lab testing equipment and constructions that handle gas distribution.
We make skilled use of 3D CAD/CAM software to solve even the most complex of problems, producing high-quality end results.
Innovative medical technology
Laser cutting has revolutionised the way we think about the manufacturing of medical tube tools, medical components and medical devices.
This type of laser technology is perfect for specialist cutting requirements as surgical precision is required to ensure everything is edged, contoured and patterned faultlessly to pass the medical grade. These cutting and laser processing technologies allow us to create all manner of objects, including:
- Surgical instruments
- Biopsy tools
- Needles
- Unusual tool tips
- Chain linkages
- Hospital bed frames
Benefits of laser cutting to the medical world

- Faster and more cost-efficient than traditional cutting methods
- Achieve high dimensional accuracy
- Perfect for working on small parts and components
- No push, drag or impact force
- Minimal thermal input
- Cost-effective
