Medical device designers’ goals have always been enhancing and enriching device functionality while reducing size and cost. This is particularly true as modern devices start acting like complex miniaturized computers for the body, interfaced with microelectronic sensors and actuators. In response, medical device engineering teams – designers and manufacturers – are using advanced semiconductor assembly techniques, tools, materials, and methods, which often employ specialized adhesives. In this article for Today’s Medical Developments, Dave Fromm, Promex’s COO, provides a guide on selecting the right adhesive for modern medical devices.
