syringe manufacturing

Syringe manufacturing involves creating sterile, precise devices for injecting or withdrawing fluids. It begins with raw materials like medical-grade plastics for the barrel and plunger and stainless steel for the needle. These materials are processed through molding, extrusion, or machining to shape the syringe components. The parts are then assembled in controlled environments to ensure sterility, with the needle securely attached to the barrel, and the plunger fitted for smooth movement. Quality control checks ensure accurate volume markings, proper sealing, and overall safety. Final sterilization often involves irradiation or ethylene oxide treatment before packaging for medical use.
