Hybrid of metal and carbon for medical devices
Enhancing biocompatibility through the fusion of metal and carbon.
In the medical device industry, the biocompatibility of materials used is essential to ensure patient safety and product reliability. Particularly for components that are implanted in the body or devices that come into direct contact with patients, selecting materials that do not cause allergic or rejection reactions is crucial. Additionally, properties such as lightweight, strength, and workability also impact the performance and usability of medical devices. Our hybrid materials made of metal and carbon provide a new design option that meets these demands. 【Application Scenarios】 - Medical device components implanted in the body - Structural components of medical devices that come into direct contact with patients - Medical devices requiring lightweight and high-strength materials 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Improved safety through the selection of highly biocompatible materials - Reduced burden on patients due to weight reduction - Enhanced durability of devices through increased strength - Expanded design flexibility due to good workability and connectivity
basic information
【Features】 - Combines the workability and connectivity of metals with the lightweight and high strength of carbon. - Bending and twisting characteristics can be adjusted by the way carbon fibers are wound. - Contributes to the weight reduction of parts that are concerning in terms of weight when made solely from metal. - Supports connections with fittings that are difficult to achieve with carbon alone. - Compatible with various metals such as aluminum, SUS, iron, and copper. 【Our Strengths】 Since our establishment in 1955, we have been leveraging the metal processing and CFRP pipe manufacturing technologies developed through fishing tackle production to challenge new fields. Based on years of experience and achievements, we provide products that meet our customers' diverse needs. Please feel free to contact us with your requests.

Our company was established in 1955 as a fishing hook manufacturer in Nishiwaki City, Hyogo Prefecture. Since then, our product range has continued to expand, and we now handle a variety of products, including fishing hooks, fishing rods, and even apparel. Additionally, we have newly established a KR Business Division to develop and manufacture care equipment. We are committed to addressing social issues such as the increasing demand for care due to an aging society and the chronic shortage of personnel.
