Surgical Blade Sharpness Tester

一、Main Uses

- **Quality Control in Medical Device Manufacturing**: In medical device manufacturing enterprises, the Sharpness Tester for Surgical Blades is used to conduct quality inspections on surgical blades. By simulating the cutting process in surgery and measuring the force required for the blade to cut through standard suture lines or other test materials, it assesses whether the sharpness of the blade meets relevant standard requirements. Only products with qualified sharpness can enter the market, thus ensuring the quality and safety of surgical instruments and providing a guarantee for the smooth progress of surgeries. - **Inspection and Selection by Medical Institutions**: Medical institutions such as hospitals also use the sharpness tester for surgical blades to regularly inspect the sharpness of surgical blades. This helps doctors understand the performance of the blades before surgery, select the most suitable surgical instruments, improve surgical efficiency, reduce tissue damage and patient pain during surgery, and at the same time, lower the risks of postoperative infections and complications. - **Quality Inspection in Tool Manufacturing**: In tool manufacturing enterprises, the sharpness tester for surgical blades can be used to test the sharpness of blades of different types and uses, ensuring that each batch of blades has stable sharpness performance to meet users' needs. - **Product R & D and Improvement**: The sharpness tester for surgical blades is also used in the R & D process of cutting tools. Manufacturers can test blades made of different materials, with different processes and designs, collect relevant data, analyze the relationship between sharpness and materials, processes, etc., so as to optimize product design, improve the sharpness and durability of blades, and launch more competitive products. - **Teaching Practice and Training**: In the teaching practice of relevant majors, the sharpness tester for surgical blades is an important teaching tool. It can help students intuitively understand the concept and testing methods of blade sharpness, and cultivate students' practical operation ability and scientific thinking.

三、Technical Parameters- **Testing Range**: The force value testing range is usually 0.1N - 10.0N, with an error not exceeding ±0.01N. - **Blade Types**: It can test various specifications of surgical blades, such as straight knives, circular knives, and ophthalmic knives with angles. - **Testing Rate**: The testing speed usually does not exceed 10mm/s, with an error range within ±1mm/min (the testing speed can be set by software). - **Other Functions**: The tester is usually equipped with high - precision sensors and a measurement system, which can accurately measure the force and displacement required during the cutting process. By applying PLC/ARM technology, the operation of the tester is more intelligent. It is equipped with a programmable controller and a touch - screen operation interface, which is convenient for users to set and operate. The tester can display the applied pressure value and test data in real - time, facilitating users to observe and analyze the test results. The tester has a built - in Chinese - English bilingual input function, which is convenient for domestic and foreign users.
