High-Speed Die Cutting

High-speed die cutting involves feeding a material into a press where it is cut into shapes of a predetermined size. Since sophisticated parts with a high level of quality control can be produced, this process is highly suited for medical components utilizing a range of foams and films.

Vacuum Forming

Vacuum forming is a process in which a sheet of plastic is heated to an optimal temperature, stretched onto a mold, and forced against the mold by a vacuum. It is an ideal solution when large parts or complex shapes are needed.

Tube Finishing

UFP MedTech employs various post-extrusion processes such as hole punching, cutting, machining, printing, and insert molding to create a finished component or product.

Tube Finishing

Two insoles are displayed on a gray background: one is transparent white with holes, and the other is bright yellow with a textured surface.

Lamination

Lamination is most often used when there is a need to create a composite material, which is the combination of multiple materials such as foam-to-fabric, foam-to-film, or foam-to-foam. Our expertise at creating highly functional composites from hard to join materials ensures the optimal product for each application.
