TPV from GLS delivers benefits to Biowave's pain therapy medical devices

Source： Date ：2007-12-05 Editor ：(ACH)
GLS Corp., the developer, manufacturer and supplier of high-performance, custom-formulated thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), announced that Biowave Corp., a developer of medical device to treat chronic, acute or post-operative musculoskeletal pain, has selected a high-performance GLS TPE for its Deepwave percutaneous and Homewave non-invasive neuromodulation pain therapy medical devices.

GLS VERSALLOY XL 9070X-1, a thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) alloy, customized by GLS specifically for Biowave, offers good flow properties and delivers a soft-touch feel, secure grip, colorability and surface aesthetics for a protective bumper on these revolutionary new portable pain therapy devices.

In addition to achieving Biowave's goals of a comfortable and secure grip for physicians, surgeons and patients, GLS VERSALLOY XL 9070X-1 alloy resulted in production cost savings. Although it is compounded for use in overmolding, the TPV did not have to be overmolded onto the Polycarbonate/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (PC/ABS) housing.

"Thanks to the flexibility of the VERSALLOY material and its easy-to-mold characteristics, the finished bumper can be slipped into channels between the upper and lower housings without stretching," said Roger Lockshier, project manager at PTA Corp., the molder of the part. "As a result, the part looks as if it were overmolded directly onto the housing."
