Medical devices demand the highest standards in quality, precision, and cleanliness. Synova’s Laser MicroJet® technology meets these requirements by combining the accuracy of a laser with the cooling and guiding capabilities of a thin water jet. This unique process enables clean, burr-free cutting without heat-affected zones, material deposition, or micro-cracks.
In the medical industry, the LMJ is widely used for manufacturing components such as implants, surgical blades, stents, tubes (i.e. cannulas, needles, or endoscopes), and electronic parts for implants.
Whether cutting, drilling, slotting, grooving, marking, or slicing, the Laser MicroJet delivers precision and reliability. With Synova’s technology, manufacturers benefit from a solution that meets the strict performance and regulatory demands of the medical sector.

We are also very satisfied with the wide variety of demanding materials we can process with this installation, including nitinol, titanium, tantalum, niobium, and tungsten. One of the most important advantage is the white cut, means strictly no contamination.
