Second, many searchers this year are wondering about the biocompatibility of aluminum so that\u2019s our queue to create another medical device industry-related blog.<\/p>\n<p>3 advantages of aluminum extrusions to the medical device industry are design flexibility, very low tooling costs, and biocompatibility.

These alloys are used in many disposable medical devices. Medical device manufacturers such as Johnson & Johnson, Smith & Nephew and 3M Healthcare use aluminum extrusions in their designs. Aluminum ear tubes are a critical component of stethoscopes. Aluminum tubing is also used in disposable surgical tools such as circular staplers, trocars, and laparoscopic instruments. Extruded aluminum electrodes are used in electroporation cuvettes which are used in DNA research.<\/p>\n<p>There is one myth to dispel about aluminum: exposure to aluminum causes Alzheimer\u2019s Disease. In fact, aluminum has not been shown to cause <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aluminum.org\/resources\/electrical-faqs-and-handbooks\/health\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alzheimer\u2019s<\/a> according to the World Health Organization and The Alzheimer\u2019s Association.<\/p>\n<p>For over 30 years Profile Precision Extrusions has been manufacturing aluminum tubing and extruded aluminum shapes for the medical device, aerospace, and industrial markets. <a href=\"https:\/\/profileprecisionextrusions.com\/staging\/9083\/contact-us\/?nav=topnav\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Contact us<\/a> today to bring your design to life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here at PPE we regularly review our digital marketing efforts to understand why potential customers come to our website and how we can provide relevant information to them.
