Global Leadership in Medical Tubing
Davis-Standard understands the extrusion needs of the global medical tubing market - tight tolerances, high speeds, clean room specific designed equipment, and process support. We work with your engineering team to design the right extrusion system for your tubing needs, including extruders, controls, tooling and screw designs. Our lab lines in Pawcatuck, Connecticut and Suzhou, China support new medical tubing application development such as microbore catheter tubing, multi-lumen tubing and bump tubing. We recently expanded up on our melt pump extruder product line to offer customers a complete extruder and melt pump package for new lines. The pumps may also be added to existing extrusion systems for better process control.
Global Leadership in Pipe, Profile and Tubing
Continuous improvement in extruders, controls, feedscrew technology and process support has positioned Davis-Standard at the forefront of pipe, profile and tubing innovation. Davis-Standard has extensive process and extrusion expertise in the area of medical and industrial silicone tubing worldwide. We understand there is a difference between extruding an industrial fluid transfer tube and extruding an infantile catheter. Our engineers work with you to supply the correct customised equipment to meet your precise product requirements including horizontal or vertical extrusion, short wave or medium-wave cure systems, custom designed dies and downstream equipment, or precision cutting and winding.
