Customized Balloon Catheter Pleat and Fold Automation Platform

The MSI FFS760S PTCA balloon catheter pleating and folding equipment doubles machine output through the use of dual, in-line Wavepleat™ and fold heads. This machine is capable of processing a product on one set of heads while the other set is being loaded, effectively allowing a single operator to simultaneously control two machines. Integrated vision systems eliminate manual positioning variability, and associated yield loss, by automatically positioning balloons into the pleat/fold heads.

The FFS760S is PLC-controlled with a PC/HMI touch screen user interface. The machine base features dual, automated, top-loading v-blocks with removable Press-Sure™ catheter sealing devices. It is ideal for processing RX distal sub-assemblies. The product handling system can be equipped with a variety of optional luer attachment fixtures.
