MMBT Quiet Fine Wire Medical Braiders Horizontal or Vertical Which One is Right for You?

When it comes to selecting the right quiet fine wire medical braider for your medical device development needs, the decision between a horizontal or vertical braider is crucial. MMBT offers both horizontal and vertical quiet medical braiders from 3-300 carriers. 

Do You Need Flexibility with Reel-to-Reel Braiding and Mandrel Braiding?

If your medical device development involves research and development tasks that require flexibility with reel-to-reel braiding and mandrel braiding, then MMBT's horizontal braiders are the ideal choice for you. Horizontal braiders from MMBT come equipped with a built-in bobbin winder and can braid over a mandrel, offering versatility in your braiding processes.

Are You Looking for High Braid Production on a Reel-to-Reel System?

On the other hand, if your primary focus is achieving high braid production on a reel-to-reel system, then a vertical braider would be the most suitable option for your needs. MMBT's vertical braiders are designed to provide continuous length braiding, making them perfect for applications that require a high output of braided products on a reel to reel setup. MMBT's vertical braiders take up less space than MMBT's horizontal braiders. If you are tight on floor space, a vertical braider will save you floor space.

MMBT's horizontal and vertical fine wire braiders offers unique features and benefits that cater to different requirements. How do you know which one is the best fit for you? Let's dive into the features of MMBT's horizontal and vertical braiders to help you get the braider that best fits your med device manufacturing needs.

MMBT Horizontal Braider Features:

MMBT's horizontal braiders come with a range of features that make them a versatile choice for various medical device development projects:

  • Built-in bobbin winder
  • Capability to braid reel to reel
  • Capability to braid over mandrel
  • Continuous length braiding with reel-to-reel option
  • Flexibility in braid design
  • Braid specific length sizes over a mandrel
  • Diverse range of braids available
  • Flexible braid design options
  • Great for prototyping
  • Develop new designs (R & D)
  • Create shorter complex braids

Considering these features, if your medical device development involves tasks that align with the capabilities of MMBT's horizontal braiders, then this type of braider would be the most suitable option for your project.

MMBT Vertical Braider Features

If you are tight on floor space in a cleanroom and require high volume reel-to-reel braiding at high production speeds, MMBT's vertical braiders might be the ideal choice for you. Here are some key features of vertical braiders:

  • Designed for high volume reel-to-reel braiding
  • Optimized for high production speeds
  • Ideal for applications where space is limited
  • Specialized for specific braid types
  • Consistent production of uninterrupted med devices braids
  • Maximize production volume

What are the key differences between MMBT horizontal and vertical medical braiders?

MMBT horizontal medical braiders are versatile machines that can perform both continuous reel-to-reel braiding and mandrel (maypole) braiding. On the other hand, MMBT vertical braiders are designed specifically for reel-to-reel braiding only. While vertical braiders excel in high-volume production, horizontal braiders offer the flexibility needed for research and development purposes.

Which MMBT braider is suitable for high-volume production?

If your primary requirement is high-volume production of braids, MMBT's vertical braider is the ideal choice for you. Vertical braiders are optimized for efficiency and can produce a large number of braids in a shorter amount of time compared to horizontal braiders.

Which braider offers more flexibility for R&D purposes?

For research and development purposes where flexibility is key, MMBT's horizontal braider is the better option. The ability to switch between continuous reel-to-reel braiding and mandrel braiding allows for experimentation and customization of braids to meet specific med device requirements.

Final Thoughts

The choice between a horizontal and vertical quiet fine wire medical braider depends on the specific requirements of your medical device development project. By evaluating factors such as the need for R&D, braid production volume, and braiding flexibility, you can determine which type of MMBT braider aligns best with your project goals and objectives.

Ultimately, the decision between MMBT's horizontal and vertical braiders will depend on your specific requirements. If you need flexibility, versatility for R&D in braid design, and the ability to braid over a mandrel, MMBT's horizontal braider is the way to go. On the other hand, if you prioritize high volume reel-to-reel braiding in a limited space, MMBT's vertical braider is the perfect choice for you. Consider your requirements carefully to make the right decision for your braiding operations.
