High Impact and Improved Corrosion Resistance for Bone Cutting Tools Orchid Orthopedic Solutions has developed a form of 17-4ph stainless steel which, following initial testing, increases the impact strength by up to 5 times and vastly improves its corrosion resistance, whilst maintaining all other properties, such as tensile strength and hardness. This is anticipated to make broaches and rasps safer for the... Read More

Expanding Opportunities with a Simplified Supply Chain

In the era of cost-conscious, value-based healthcare, medical device original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are under intense cost pressures to find ways to reevaluate their operations and supply chain strategies.
