The custom coil manufacturing process focuses on fulfilling the requirements of the customers. Therefore, in order to fulfill the demands of the customers, manufacturers face several challenges. However, the manufacturers mainly focus on the three major factors for the preparation of the custom-made micro coils such as reliability, electrical efficiency, and cost of the micro-coils. From solar panels to medical equipment, different industries require different types of micro-coils depending on the application area.
The manufacturing of custom-made coils consists of several steps such as wrapping,casting, gluing, soldering, etc. In order to conduct these procedures, manufacturers need to have the required tools, expertise, and equipment. This article will discuss the manufacturing process and applications of custom-made micro-coils.
Manufacturing process:
In order to prepare the micro-coils, manufacturers wind the isolated wires around a core through the coil winding process. However, many customers demand coreless coils in modern days, and therefore, to prepare the coreless coils, manufacturers remove the core after the coil winding process. These coreless coils are useful in vain insertion. Cores can be of different thicknesses on the basis of winding numbers. However, in order to protect the coils from reaching the isolation breakpoint of the wire, manufacturing companies need to possess effective machinery and special expertise.
Most manufacturers use copper wire in the manufacturing process due to its superior conductivity. Depending on the requirements of the customers, several other materials can also be used such as aluminum, stainless steel, high purity precious metals such as platinum and gold, titanium, and titanium alloys. Ultra-fine wires play a crucial role in the manufacturing of miniature micro-coils. However, it is essential to join two ultra-fine wires during the manufacturing process. Traditional soldering and welding methods are not useful to connect the ultra-fine wires due to several drawbacks. Therefore, modern manufacturers use thermal compression bonding technology to join two similar or different wires. This process can provide highly reliable, corrosion-free, and strain-free joints. This technologyis not only cost-effective to the ability of mass production but also effective to fulfill the ultra-strict tolerance requirements.
Applications:
In several fields, micro-coils have significant applications. For example, in order to control and monitor pacemakers and prepare pain management devices, micro-coils are necessary. In electrophysiological treatments and electricity-based ablations, micro-coil are necessary components to prepare microwave and RF micro coils. In order to produce navigation and orientation sensors and tiny sensor implants for wireless communication, micro-coils are useful. Micro-coils also have significant applications in dental and orthopedic treatments through pulsed electromagnets.
The Characteristics of the Manufacturing Company:
The manufacturing company should have several characteristics to prepare the micro-coils such as-
- The manufacturing company should possess high-notch technological equipment.
- Professional and experienced employees should conduct the manufacturing process of the micro-coils.
- Besides assuring high quality, the manufacturers must develop unique winding coils.
- The company should be able to fulfill huge orders through mass production.
- Above all, the company should take efficient and cost-effective procedures.
In order to prepare the custom-made micro-coils, manufacturers should consider the requirements of the customers very carefully.
