Benefits of Aluminum for Medical Devices
Aluminum has properties that align with the medical device industry’s strength, safety, and sanitation needs:
- Lightweight durability. With a high strength-to-weight ratio, aluminum components keep equipment portable and manageable.
- Corrosion resistance. Aluminum holds up to repeated cleaning, sterilization, and chemical exposure.
- Formability. The material is easy to machine and form into detailed shapes with tight tolerances.
- Thermal conductivity. Aluminum facilitates rapid sterilization and temperature control.
- Biocompatibility. The metal is non-toxic and safe for direct or indirect patient contact.
The material’s machinability also leads to lower costs than stainless steel, especially in high-volume production. Plus, aluminum is fully recyclable, aligning with sustainability goals that many medical OEMs prioritize.
What Sets PSI Industries Apart
Medical device companies need to partner with reliable, knowledgeable manufacturing providers to guarantee positive patient outcomes. That’s why PSI Industries stands out as more than a vendor. We work as an extension of your team, aligning with your quality, compliance, and production goals from day one.
Since 1987, PSI Industries has served sectors where failure is not an option—healthcare, aerospace, telecom, and more. This legacy has shaped our approach to manufacturing: we design for performance, engineer for efficiency, and manufacture with discipline. Our long-standing presence in these high-stakes sectors demonstrates our ability to meet tight tolerances, deliver on time, and solve complex production challenges with agility.
We also bring end-to-end capabilities under one roof, streamlining the production process. From precision-engineered aluminum extrusions to advanced CNC machining—including 5-axis and live tool turning—we manage every critical step in-house.
By integrating design support, fabrication, finishing, assembly, and packaging, PSI Industries eliminates the need for multiple suppliers. This reduces lead times, minimizes risk, and ensures greater accountability throughout the lifecycle of your project. It’s how we maintain control, deliver precision, and remain a trusted partner for OEMs across the medical industry.
Our Aluminum Fabrication Capabilities for Medical Device Compliance
Meeting the demands of the medical device industry requires high technical capability, consistency, and documented accountability. PSI Industries operates under a robust ISO 9001:2015-certified quality management system that supports tight-tolerance production and full traceability. Here’s an overview of our full-service capabilities for aluminum medical component fabrication:
- Custom finishing options. We offer Class 1 clear anodizing and Class 2 black anodizing for corrosion resistance and hygienic surfaces. We also offer custom powder coating and mechanical finishes tailored to medical specifications. Our assembly and packaging operations are built to support cleanroom standards, ensuring components arrive production-ready.
- Quality control. Our in-house metrology labs and rigorous inspection protocols verify that every part we deliver meets the dimensional accuracy, hygiene, and compliance expectations that medical OEMs rely on.
- Low order minimums and scalable production. PSI Industries can accommodate small batches for clinical trials to full-scale product launches. Our minimum order quantities start as low as 50 pounds, depending on press size, making it easier to prototype, iterate, and scale without incurring excessive costs.
- Shortest lead times in the industry. Our level of agility is supported by some of the fastest lead times in the industry. With low tooling costs, quick setup processes, and efficient scheduling, we help manufacturers quickly move from concept to market with confidence, without sacrificing precision or quality.
