As the advancement of medical technology continues, delivering the optimum cable and wire is much more challenging than it was before.
Cutting-edge cables for medical devices often need to possess best-of-all-world design attributes: they must be flexible yet strong, durable and able to perform 24/7. There are also the parameters of the cable itself, such as conductor thickness, wire configuration (stranded versus solid, halogen-free, size, and coating), shield material, color and more.
Cable and wires used in medical devices are also regulated under strict guidelines, including material safety standards, sterilization suitability (ISO 10993-5) and biocompatibility, to ensure the reliable operation of the product and the safety of both patients and operators.
Alpha Wire offers a broad range of cables and wires for medical device applications. Our solutions allow you to create the critical interconnections for signals and power, with the performance you need and reliability you require, helping you push the boundaries of what’s possible with medical device design.
Today, for example, as many medical devices become smaller and more portable, so must the cable. Alpha Wire’s EcoGen family of wire and cable combines better performance in a smaller package. With 47% smaller and 65% lighter than PVC, the superior dielectric properties of mPPE make a reduced wall thickness possible, while maintaining the same electrical properties as a thicker PVC control cable. For more info, watch our video “5 minutes on Alpha Wire’s EcoGen family of wire and cable” (the video is in Hebrew).
Alpha Wire’s Xtra-Guard 1 cable is a high-performance workhorse cable featuring premium-grade PVC insulation and jacket, high maximum operating temperature, and exceptional EMI protection with Supra-Shield® foil + braid shielding. It’s ideal for control, monitoring, light-duty power, and just about any other application. And with conductor sizes as small as 28 AWG, the compact cables give a durable performance without consuming valuable space.
Alpha Wire’s ThermoThin Hook-Up Wire line combines maximum performance in an exceptionally small and lightweight construction. It is available in various insulations to meet your needs for temperature (up to 3000C), ability to withstand wear and abrasion, electrical performance, or resistance to oil, solvents, and chemicals. The wires offer excellent uniformity and low-fray design for easy handling, stripping, and termination. For more info, click here.
Alpha Wire goes one step further – manufacturing custom cables to meet unique applications, offering specific conductor counts, shielding options, jacket materials, and versatile product designs.
So, whether you’re looking for inside-the-box or outside-of-the-box components, need small or large cable, specialty conductors and insulation, special shielding, biocompatibility requirements or part with sterilization compatibility, Alpha Wire’s Medical Devices Wire and Cable portfolio offer you the perfect solution for your specific application!
