The supplier position is clearly defined as a component supplier: parts are delivered against drawings with full documentation, while sterilization, final packaging and regulatory responsibility stay with the device manufacturer. Typical families are Swiss-turned instrument components, endoscope parts, cannula holders and dental/micro components — in stainless 1.4305/1.4404 and titanium, at diameters down to the sub-millimeter range and in batches from 100 to 10,000 pieces. ## Typical component families and processes | Component (DE / EN) | Typical material | Process | Typical batch | Instrumenten-Komponenten (instrument components) | 1.4305, 1.4404, titanium | Swiss turning + centerless grinding | 100–2,000 pcs | Endoskop-Komponenten (endoscope components) | 316, titanium | Swiss-type turning | 500–5,000 pcs | Kanülenhalter (cannula holders) | 303 | Swiss-type turning | 1,000–10,000 pcs | Dental- / Mikrokomponenten (dental, micro components) | titanium | turn-milling | 500–5,000 pcs Sub-millimeter diameters down to Ø0.5 mm are within the Swiss-turning envelope; surface and cleanliness requirements are confirmed per drawing. ## Workflow: drawing, sample approval and recurring series The standard flow: drawing review and quotation within 48 hours, first samples in 7–15 days, first article inspection and approval, then series production against the approved reference. Batch sizes follow the table above — from single spare parts to tens of thousands of pieces per order, depending on the component family. For repeat orders, tooling, program revisions and inspection records are kept on file, so call-offs remain consistent with the approved first article. Engineering changes — material substitutions, tolerance updates, packaging changes — are handled as controlled changes against the same records. ## Quality and documentation DIN ISO 2768-mK applies as the default tolerance scheme for unspecified dimensions. EN 10204 3.1 inspection certificates are standard for metallic parts, First Article Inspection supports the approval step, and RoHS/REACH declarations are available where required. Surface treatment, cleanliness and packaging requirements are confirmed per drawing. ## FAQ Are you a certified medical device manufacturer?No — we work as a component supplier to medical instrument manufacturers. Parts are delivered against drawings with EN 10204 3.1 and First Article Inspection; regulatory responsibility remains with the device manufacturer. Can you machine titanium for instrument parts?Yes — titanium turning is established in our portfolio, including small diameters via Swiss-type turning. What is the smallest diameter you turn?Sub-millimeter diameters down to around Ø0.5 mm are within the Swiss-turning envelope; exact values are confirmed per drawing. Which documentation comes with medical components?EN 10204 3.1 certificates, First Article Inspection and full material traceability; additional documentation is agreed per part. ### Related Materials · Related Services · Related Case Studies [Related Materials: Titanium ](https://www.sinbo-machining.com/products/materials/titanium/)[· Stainless Steel ](https://www.sinbo-machining.com/products/materials/stainless-steel/)[Related Services: Cnc Machining ](https://www.sinbo-machining.com/services/cnc-machining/)[Related Case Studies: Surgical Instrument ](https://www.sinbo-machining.com/case/surgical-instrument/)[· Titanium Implant ](https://www.sinbo-machining.com/case/titanium-implant/)This page describes a representative application scenario for the medical instrument manufacturing industry, compiled from typical requirements of this vertical.
