These are the areas in which micro coils are generating major innovations
Coil manufacturing in the medical field has revolutionized the way we approach healthcare. The micro coils or sensors required for many medical technology applications are becoming increasingly powerful, while at the same time requiring less space. The applications of miniature coils in the medical field are vast, ranging from diagnostic and therapeutic uses to navigation and orientation applications.
Leading manufacturers of micro coils, such as the globally active KUK Group, have succeeded in producing micro coils for mass-produced applications that were unthinkable just a few years ago. We are talking here about micro coils with ultra-fine wire of 0.010 mm diameter (pure copper), which have proven their worth in highly sensitive medical technology applications. With windings directly on magnetic cores, the minimum diameter of the micro coils is thus only 0.3 mm. There is also flexibility in terms of core material, so that the optimum variant can be selected for the specific application, including micro coils with ferrite, mu-metal or amorphous core material. In addition, developers of medical technology benefit not only from new possibilities in coil winding itself, but also in the equally challenging contacting to other components, such as a printed circuit board. The reduced dimensions of micro coils are driving the ongoing trend towards miniaturisation in medical technology and thus opening up great innovation potential for developers of coils for Implanted Medical Devices (IMD) and beyond.
