TH - TIP TRIMMING TOOLS
Depending on the tube and the task to be done, we have different trimming tools.
Tip trimming is used to produce a smooth outside rounding on an open tip suction catheter. The tip trimming takes place with a trimming head.
In principle a trimming head is a wedge for holding a bent razor blade in place, and by rotating the trimming head, the radius on the tube tip is formed. One razor blade lasts for several hundred thousand trimmings in PVC and the razor blade is easy to replace. The trimming head is driven by a frequency regulated AC motor. The shavings are collected in a drawer.
The trimming heads can be used on soft tube material such as PVC, Silicone, PE and PTFE, in the sizes CH 5 to CH 40. One trimming head is used for each tube size and radius.
The tip trimming machine is recommended to be operated in a clean room environment.
