Medical Device Industry Advanced Laser Cutting System News

The World's Most Advanced Laser Processing Service
Offered Exclusively by Norman Noble, Inc.

Norman Noble, Inc. continues to raise the bar on Medical Device Manufacturing Technology by taking micromachining to an entirely new level with the development of the Millennium Focus laser tubular cutting systems. Our Laser R&D Engineers developed this unique system by integrating years of advanced laser cutting knowledge with customized Laser machining components to create a new laser cutting system with manufacturing capabilities that are second to none.

These Laser R&D systems operate at higher frequencies and shorter pulse lengths than typical lasers, resulting in much narrower kerf widths with very minimal HAZ. The combination of narrower kerfs and the ability to maintain feed rates at a constant velocity throughout the entire geometry are trademarks of this incredible system.

The result of the technology utilized in the Millennium Focus delivers throughputs of three to four times that of ordinary systems, with standard accuracies of +/-.0002” through an entire production run.

Millennium Focus
Doing What Others Attempt to Do, Only Better
     
The Medical Device Industry requires very diverse microscopic manufacturing capabilities to support the vast array of complicated components that continue to persevere in the advancement of modern medicine. Many of these complex components are designed with tortuous geometries that far exceed the capabilities of standard Laser systems. Combining years of expertise with the Millennium Focus Laser, Norman Noble, Inc. manufactures these medical device components at an incomprehensible level of speed and precision. The Millennium Focus Laser is more efficient, more consistent and more reliable than any other ND:YAG Laser system on Earth.   Many microscopic tubular components are so complex that the average laser controls would get saturated with the mathematical calculations required to produce the geometry, therefore slowing down the system to a much less than desirable feed rate. The Millennium Focus Laser is designed for manufacturing such components and in doing so, maintains a constant velocity feed rate through the entire geometry from interpolated diameters as small as .001” to the smallest contoured radii of .0003”. Some of the more important benefits of constant velocity feed rates are less HAZ in the corners and more consistent dimensional results from piece to piece, in a fraction of the time that other Laser Systems are capable of.

 

 

 
Our Next Generation Laser System:
The On-going Pursuit of Excellence

   
In the Medical Device Manufacturing Field, the limiting factors in machining capabilities are creativity and the capability of your equipment. Norman Noble, Inc. has nearly (40) Millennium Focus Lasers in service today with capabilities exceeding any other ND:YAG laser system available anywhere, but our creative manufacturing methods and our drive for excellence doesn’t stop there. With our eighth generation laser system under our belt, the Millennium Focus, Norman Noble, Inc. is devoted to continuing our laser machining dominance in the Medical Device Industry.   Our quest for continued excellence is evident by the development of our next generation laser system, the Millennium Focus II. The Millennium Focus II laser cutting system is a dedicated tubular cutting machine that utilizes state-of-the-art Laser technology for maximum uptime with minimal maintenance. This new technology has proven to be even more efficient than the Millennium Focus, yet continues to provide the unparalleled speed and precision that our customers have become accustomed to. No other Contract Manufacturer devotes as much effort to develop and maintain a laser machining arsenal full of the latest state-of-the-art capabilities than Norman Noble, Inc.
