GS1 Data Matrix

Every instrument will be directly marked with the GS1 Data Matrix Code using a special laser (GTIN and LOT or serial number). The coding also meets all regulatory FDA UDI (Unique-Device-Identification) requirements.A validated marking process uses state of the art Laser technology which allows the application of a corrosion-proof pattern. This guarantees optimal traceability of the permanent readable marking over the complete durability of our instruments.

Validated final cleaning / Passivation and anticorrosive protection

AS instruments have an ideal surface finish. The surface is totally free from manufacturing residues (in accordance with ISO 13485), thanks to validated and systematised automatic core processes.

Keynote:

Free from manufacturing residues
Precleaning through specialized ultrasonic procedure
Final cleaning in validated washers

Passivation and anticorrosive protection

Finally at the end of the process, AS Instruments will be passivated and corrosion protected. This is a enormous benefit and safety, especially in the field of laser marking.

Keynote:

Safety within the complete CSSD process
Durable product marking
Regulation conform, corrosion resistant

Update of the Endoscope leaflet

The updated AS leaflet "Endoscopes" is ready to download. Please go to the Media Library.

New construction / Increasing of logistics area

AS Medizintechnik GmbH is increasing it's logistics area and storage space by 400 sqm.

The heightening of the previous logistics area should be completed in 4 months. The relocation is shedulded for end July.

Besides more space for stock and logistical processes, we are as well as planning a more efficient floor plan for each particular production process. Surface finishing, marking, validated endcleaning, quality inspection and packing, compared with roller guides will enable a more smoothly workflow from goods receiving up to the ready AS product.

Validated final cleaning of surgical instruments

Also in terms of product cleanness, AS Medizintechnik complies with ISO 13485. By use of state-of-the-art cleaning maschines from BELIMED we do achieve the removal of manufacturing residues due to a validated cleaning process.

NEW AS Internet presence

Within the redesign of our sales material, we also have newly-arranged the AS internet presence. The design corresponds with our latest cooperate identity and therefore integrates itself in the new appearance of AS Medizintechnik. Improvements in the menu navigation and high quality images inside the product finder document our quality demands.

STOTZ Femoral Shaft Revision Centralizer

This newly designed instrument set manufactured from biocompatible implant steel simplifies targeted removal of the seal of the prosthesis tip without opening the cortical bone of the femur in hip-joint revisions.
This prevents injury to the femoral bone and reduces surgical and rehabilitation times and the risk of infection.

Further information you will find in our flyer "STOTZ Femoral Shaft Revision Centralizer" which you can download in the Media Library.

Detachable Laminectomy Rongeurs

To expand our range of laminectomy instruments which are alredy shown in our general catalogue, we have prepared a huge variety of detachable laminectomy rongeurs. The rongeurs, which are available in various pattern and legths, can be dismantled and reassembled with 3 steps. The two systems are one-piece which means the shaft or even the handle would not be seperated from the main part and could therefore not getting lost. All detachable laminectomy instruments are also available in ceramic coated surface.

Further information you will find in our flyer "Laminectomy Rongeurs, detachable" which you can download in the Media Library.

Micro Discectomy curettes

These curettes are especially designed for micro discectomy procedures and available in different designs and lengths for cervical and lumbal spinal surgery.

Cervical curettes
Smaller cup sizes for the smaller anatomy in the cervical area.

Cervical curettes, long
Same cup sizes as the Cervical Curettes, but longer design to improve the range inside the operation field.

Lumbar curettes
Larger cup sizes optimally suited for lumbar procedures.

• Bayonet design for improved visualization
• Ergonomic handle for enhanced control
• Multiple tip configurations and geometries

Intramedullary reamers, NITINOL

Reaming of the bone is possible, as the shape of the medullary cavity is not cylindrical, the medullary is curved and not straight with wide and narrow parts, the narrow parts are in the centre of the medullary.
This is why flexible reaming of the medullary allow s a better congruency between the bone and a INTL nail, providing a large contact surface, which increases stability. Scientific investigations have proved that medullary reaming systems causes high intramedullary pressure increases, risk for fat embolism during the reaming process and especially by non keeping of the right reaming steps, required are 0.5 mm diameter steps and start with the lowest diameter 8.0 mm.
Medullary reaming are used for fracture treatment with INTL nails in the medullary cavity of the femoral, tibia and humeral bone. The new flexible reamer shaft made from NITINOL, which is a nickel-titanium alloy with superelastic properties also the new designed changeable reamer heads grants a proper and safety reaming process.

NON-STICK+ Bipolar forceps

During bipolar coagulation a build up of tissue can occur on the forceps tips. This damaging effect can be almost completely avoided using NON-STICK + bipolar forceps. The difficult and time consuming cleaning of forceps, during an operation, is often no longer necessary and interruptions during the procedure are significantly reduced.
The non-stick effect is achievedby using an alloy with a very high percentage of silver for the forceps tips, thus ensuring excellent thermal conductivity. This beneficial effect is permanent and will not reduce even with repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles.
NON-STICK + bipolar forceps can be used with all electrosurgical generators in conjunction with compatible bipolar cables.

Non-Stick forceps tips eliminate the undesired adherence of tissue.
Slim forceps shanks allow to work in areas that are difficult to Access.
New round handle design makes rotation of the instrument between the fingers more convenient.
Integrated guide ensures precise, parallel closing of the tips.
High quality, durable safety insulation coating.
Bipolar connector available as EU-flatplug or US-style 2-pin-plug.
