Urinary mirror snake bone structure is the core component of the flexible steering of the endoscope. Its precision processing is directly related to the accuracy and safety of surgical operations. Traditional mechanical cutting processes have problems such as insufficient precision and burr residue. The laser cutting machine provides a breakthrough solution for the manufacture of snake bone components through non-contact processing and intelligent control, and promotes the upgrade of minimally invasive surgical instruments to higher reliability.

 

The snake bone joint needs to achieve multi-directional bending in the mirror body with a diameter of 3-5mm. The component cutting accuracy directly affects the flexibility of movement. Laser cutting can achieve 0.05mm-level slits on titanium alloy or stainless steel pipes through the precise action of beam energy, greatly improving the uniformity of joint gaps and avoiding the risk of jamming or breakage caused by traditional processing.

 

Snake bones need to be densely slotted to reduce weight and enhance flexibility. Laser technology uses software to simultaneously complete the cutting of hundreds of special-shaped slots on the tube wall without the need for secondary assembly. The processing efficiency is more than 5 times higher than that of electrochemical etching, and there is no chemical pollution, which meets the sterility requirements of medical devices. Medical-grade nickel-titanium alloy and other materials are sensitive to heat, and traditional processes are prone to oxidation or lattice damage. With its extremely short pulse characteristics, the femtosecond laser cutting machine produces almost no heat-affected zone during the cutting process, ensuring the material's fatigue resistance and surface finish, and extending the life of the device.

 

The laser cutting machine supports personalized parameter customization to meet the needs of different workpieces. For example, for ultra-thin ureteroscopes, laser cutting machine technology can be used to achieve precise cutting of the tube wall with a thickness of 0.1mm, helping minimally invasive surgery to develop more refined.
