Conprofe presented Ultrasonic-Green CNC Concept in the 13th Implantable Interventional Medical Device Innovation Summit 2023!
The 13th Implantable Interventional Medical Device Innovation Summit 2023 was successfully held in Suzhou, focusing on the development of domestic implanted interventional medical devices. There are nearly 400 experts, scholars and industry professionnals.
Mr. Liu Zhongchen (Director of Medical Industry Development)
Mr. Liu Zhongchen, Director of Medical Industry Development, attended the meeting as a guest and made a speech on the theme of "Innovative Application of Ultrasonic Machining Technology in the Medical Industry" in Orthopedic Implantation Intervention Session, providing new solutions and ideas for high-efficiency green machining of implantable interventional medical devices, and boosting the sustainable development of the medical industry.
Conprofe successfully machined medical equipment components in orthopedic implantation, cardiac surgery, dentistry and neurosurgery, such as PEEK cervical cage and CoCrMo alloy tibia, widely recognized by customers in medical and related industries.
Conprofe takes the lead in flexible integration of ultrasonic and green technologies, forms Ultrasonic-Green CNC Machine Tool Product System and professional solutions with independent intellectual property rights, successfully resolving the difficulties of machining hard-brittle materials, hard-to-cut metals and composite materials. Therefore it can effectively extend tool life, improve the workpiece surface quality as well as machining efficiency, achieve clean cutting and meet the high standards of medical device parts, such as machining with high precision and no pollution.

Featured Products
Ultrasonic Machining System
Machining Principle
It converts high-frequency electric energy into mechanical vibrations, which makes the rotating drill bit vibrate at 16k to 60kHz and separates the drill bit and the workpiece periodically, leading to smoother chippings removal effect, better cooling effect, longer tool life, machining efficiency improvement and the workpiece surface quality optimization.
Machining Application
Suitable for machining in artificial joints, dentures, radiation protection devices, 5G ceramic filters and other workpieces, and widely used in Medical Devices, Consumer Electronics, Photoelectric Communication etc.
