But what kind of applications require high quality fine wire within these different industries?
In this blog, we’ll explore how our ultra fine wire is used in the medical, aerospace, and music industries.
Medical
Equipment for the medical industry requires extremely fine and accurate internal wiring for the tool to function properly and operations to go over smoothly. Our fine wire is designed to withstand sterilization methods, is very flexible, extremely versatile, and can endure long periods of heavy usage.
With CWI’s state-of-the-art machinery, we can make wire with unmatched precision. The wire is then tested to be 100% sure that it meets our customer’s expectations and meets ISO9001:2015 standards.
Our industry standard fine wire can be used in implants, probes, neural prosthesis, muscle stimulation, pain control, cardiac equipment, catheters, and more. Almost any surgical instrument, surgical closure, orthopedic or endoscopic tool features fine wire. The list continues as more innovative technology is being introduced to the industry day by day, and as fine wire constructions continue to change.
Round, flat, core, braiding, and staple wires are commonly used in medical technology. Each application is meant for different equipment and CWI can help you select the proper wire type for your operation.
Aerospace
As in medicine, there are many different uses for fine wire in the aerospace industry. Fine wire helps control some of the intricacies of flight, safety and comfort aboard an aircraft.
Some of the main applications are communication systems, navigation, flight controls, collision avoidance, and weather systems. All require exact fine wire to make this kind of sophisticated machinery work seamlessly. At CWI we can ensure the quality of the products you need, AS9100 certified to this industries standard.
Our quality manufacturing promises durability, reliability and performance in this mission critical industry. We are trusted by many aerospace companies as an industry leader for wire and cable product.
If you’re ever unsure of what you need, whether it be choosing a fine wire alloy, size or anything else, our long-standing sales team can help assist you!
Music
Music wire or wrapping wire is a fine wire that can be used for musical instruments. We make our music wire out of high-quality material that meets your exact specifications for the instrument you need it for. They’re commonly used for guitars and other bowed instruments.
The strings play a major role in the sound that the instrument creates. The string’s base alloy, wire shape, and coating, also affect the subtle nuances of the sound produced. These desired tonal features are a critical part of the string’s design.
With the importance of quality ultra fine wire to these instruments, picking a quality supplier is crucial. You can trust us and our 60 years in the wire manufacturing industry to provide the right product at the highest quality, whether you need it for medicinal applications, musical applications, or for any other industry we cater to.
