Precision Metal Components for Medical Devices & Instruments
Crenshaw Die & Manufacturing supports medical OEMs and device innovators with precision metal stamping, forming, machining, and assemblies that meet rigorous quality and regulatory requirements. From surgical instruments to implantable housings and medical enclosures, we deliver parts designed for safety, tolerance, biocompatibility, and consistency.

Why Partner with Crenshaw in the Medical Space

  • Expertise in tight tolerances & micro-features needed for medical applications
  • Rigorous documentation & traceability to support audits, validations, and regulatory compliance
  • Integrated manufacturing under one roof (stamping, forming, machining, finishing) reduces handoffs and risk
  • Advanced materials expertise: stainless steel, titanium, nickel alloys, biocompatible metals
  • Quality systems built for medical – we can support medical customer requirements, incoming inspection, lot control, and more

Key Medical Capabilities

CapabilityTypical Use in Medical Devices
Precision Metal StampingClips, brackets, contacts, micro stamped features
Deep Draw & FormingSeamless cups, shells, enclosures, implant packaging

Surface & Finishing PrepClean finishes, minimal tooling marks, passivation or electropolishing (if required)

Medical device parts we help produce include (but are not limited to):

  • Enclosures and housings for diagnostics, imaging, or therapeutic equipment
  • Surgical instrument shells, clamps, housings
  • Deep-drawn titanium or stainless steel implant housings
  • Electrical contact plates, connectors, clips
  • Shielding or EMI components
  • Micro-stamped parts (small features, thin gauges)
  • Assemblies combining stamped, formed, and machined elements

Deep drawing and micro-stamping are especially critical in medical devices, enabling parts with minimal joins, smooth interior forms, and clean finish.

Medical device manufacturing must meet stricter standards than many other sectors. Key elements include:

  • Traceability & documentation: tracking raw materials, process parameters, inspection data
  • Quality management systems: Many medical device suppliers use ISO 13485:2016 (a QMS standard specific to medical devices) in addition to or instead of ISO 9001.
  • Design controls & validation: Ensuring design inputs, verification, and validation are recorded (e.g. as required under FDA’s 21 CFR 820.30).
  • Regulatory compliance: Support for audits, supplier qualifications, and compliance with FDA, EU MDR, or other regional medical device regulations
  • Material biocompatibility & finish: Selecting medically acceptable metals (e.g. titanium, stainless) and applying suitable surface treatments for sterilization and corrosion resistance
  • Common materials: stainless steel (various grades), titanium, nickel alloys, biocompatible metals
  • Capabilities for both low-volume prototypes and production runs, depending on design, cycles, and validation
  • Projects frequently require consistent quality from first article through full production

Medical Manufacturing FAQs

What is ISO 13485 and why is it important for medical suppliers?

ISO 13485 is a quality management standard tailored for medical device manufacturing. It helps ensure consistent production, risk controls, design traceability, and regulatory compliance.

Yes (if design, tolerances, materials, and regulatory requirements permit). We offer deep draw, fine stamping, machining, and finishing suited for implantable housings or parts.

We maintain full process records, inspection data, traceability, and can cooperate in supplier audits. We also align with industry best practices for documentation.

Stainless steels, titanium, nickel alloys, and other medically acceptable materials. Surface finish and treatment options are also considered (e.g. passivation, electropolishing).

Yes. We support prototype, pilot, and production stages — often for medical device development projects.
