MTC ElectroCeramics is a world leader in the design and manufacture of piezoelectric ceramic, sensors, transducers and dielectric components for the medical market. Our components are used widely in medical instrumentation, therapeutic and diagnostic equipment and surgical tools to improve performance of equipment and enable medical advancements around the world.
Our superior piezoelectric ceramic components are enabling increased resolution of ultrasonic imaging and are used extensively in medical ultrasound. Piezoelectric components are also the key technology in applications such as blood flow measurement and foetal heart monitors, providing increased reliability and accurate detection. Additionally, they can be found in our ultrasonic air-in-line sensors for medical devices and infusion pumps.
The high performance piezoelectric material is used in high power transmission of high frequency waves to assist with surgical cutting. We supply efficient materials and complete transducers for small medical tools such as ultrasonic dental descalers and ultrasonic scalpels, which are used in applications such as cataract removal.
Multilayer chip capacitors are used extensively in MRI systems to tune the magnetic field accurately and our ceramic capacitors can also be found in lasers for eye surgery.
The capabilities of thin film electroding, photolithography, precision dicing and composites make us ideal sub-assembly suppliers in these fields. Our custom multilayer, bimorph actuator and sensor capabilities are ideal for valve and drug nebulization applications.
Our team has an in-depth understanding of the requirements, standards and processes of the medical markets around the world and works closely with customers to design competitive and bespoke solutions to meet their needs.
Our ISO 9001:2008 certified manufacturing facilities ensure the very high standards of reliability and repeatability required for human body implants and medical applications, from prototype to volume production.
