- Medical And Instrument Electronics
Medical and instrument electronics require packaging that maintains traceable fixed-count orientation, stable anti-static performance over long storage, and clear material declarations. SEWATE supplies anti-static tubes for devices including ICs relays switches connectors sensors capacitors power modules and LEDs, with profiles available in oval or square cross-sections, transparent or coloured, and lengths from 50mm to 1000mm, made from PVC PS PC PETG or ABS materials.
What Goes Wrong in Medical And Instrument Electronics
Devices arrive in random orientation, requiring manual sorting before use in medical assembly
Anti-static value degrades over time or after handling, increasing ESD risk during long storage
Lack of material declarations makes compliance audits difficult for medical electronics
Standard tubes do not match the profile of custom or newly released instrument components
Traceability is lost when re-packing partial lots or using non-identifiable packaging
What Medical And Instrument Electronics Buyers Need From Packaging
- Fixed-count packaging with consistent orientation for automated feeding in medical device assembly
- Stable anti-static value that does not fade after prolonged storage or repeated handling
- Material declarations including halogen-free and non-toxic options such as PVC and HIPS
- Tolerance control within 5 mils on PVC and plus minus 2 mils on polycarbonate for reliable feeder performance
- Repeatable tooling and packaging to ensure lot-to-lot interchangeability in regulated environments

How a Medical And Instrument Electronics Project Runs
- Provide device drawing, tube profile drawing, or physical sample to match the exact cross-section and length
- Select material based on clarity impact strength and compliance: PVC PS PC PETG or ABS, with PVC noted as non-toxic and HIPS as halogen free
- Issue drawing for approval before tooling is cut, with critical dimensions controlled within 5 mils on PVC and plus minus 2 mils on polycarbonate
- Mould making and tooling trial followed by 20-50 free sample tubes for fit and function testing
- Extrusion, cutting, anti-static treatment, plug fitting and carton packing, with optional symbol printing
- Repeat orders run against approved tooling with 5-15 day lead time and MOQ of 10000 pieces
What Delivery Looks Like

Read GuideMedical And Instrument Electronics Questions
Can you match a new medical component profile?
Yes. If the profile is not in the existing tooling library, a new tool is made from your drawing or a physical sample.
What materials are suitable for medical applications?
PVC is non-toxic and non-polluting with long storage time. HIPS is halogen free. PS and ABS are available with test reports. All materials are RoHS compliant.
How accurate is the dimensional control?
Critical dimensions are controlled within 5 mils on PVC and plus minus 2 mils on polycarbonate, suitable for high-speed feeding.
Do you provide material test reports?
Yes. PS and ABS material test reports are available upon request. All products meet the Sony environmental protection requirement.
Is there a minimum order for custom tubes?
Standard MOQ is 10000 pieces. Custom tooling requires a separate commitment based on volume and complexity.
