Melt Spinning
Process design and operating-window development for absorbable polymer filament manufacturing.
POLYMER → FILAMENTABSORBABLE SUTURE MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY
From polymer.
To filament.
To mass production.
Manufacturing engineering and technology transfer for companies building or expanding absorbable surgical suture capability.
MANUFACTURING CAPABILITY — NOT JUST EQUIPMENT
We integrate process know-how, equipment and people to establish absorbable suture manufacturing at production scale.

CORE CAPABILITY
Upstream know-how.
End-to-end execution.
Practical manufacturing engineering from filament formation through downstream suture processing and production stabilization.
Drawing & Thermal Process
Drawing, heat treatment and washing conditions engineered for stable filament properties and downstream processing.
FILAMENT STABILIZATIONBraiding & Coating
Integration of downstream suture processes with upstream filament characteristics for repeatable manufacturing.
FILAMENT → SUTUREScale-up & Troubleshooting
Root-cause analysis, full-size trials and production stabilization focused on robust operating conditions.
TRIAL → MASS PRODUCTIONWHAT WE DO
Build the factory.
Transfer the capability.
Modular technical support for greenfield projects, localization programs and existing manufacturing operations.
Greenfield Factory Setup
Manufacturing concept, process layout, technical specifications, equipment selection, vendor coordination and production-readiness planning.
Equipment & Commissioning
Technical requirement definition, vendor review, FAT/SAT support, installation, commissioning and process integration.
PGA / PGLA Technology Transfer
Transfer of practical process conditions, operating logic, troubleshooting methodology and hands-on workforce training.
Scale-up & Manufacturing Stabilization
