PTG Extruded Medical Tubing Overview

PTG's vertical integration has enabled the company to design and integrate proprietary biomedical polymers into tubing, components and medical devices. PTG differentiates itself from other extrusion houses by offering comprehensive services and optimal tubing products using a State-of-the-Art tubing extrusion system combined with proven materials expertise.

Tubing is manufactured in a clean room by feeding pre-dried pellets into an instrumented single-screw extruder with closed-loop control on diameter, wall thickness and other geometrical parameters. PTG has the equipment and expertise to continuously produce tubing with tight tolerances, incorporating PTG's proprietary Gel Reduction Technology™ with increased yields and improved surface finish and appearance. Extruded tubing may contain fillers or pigments specified by the customer. Doing so, PTG offers the following distinctive advantages and benefits to its customers:

  1. Fast turnaround
  2. Eliminating the need for multiple vendors by incorporating material procurement, analysis, and extrusion, all under one roof.
  3. Providing materials formulation, processing and application expertise in a vertically integrated manner.
  4. Offering flexibility in materials design and selection for processing and custom applications.
  5. Achieving optimal product performance
  6. Meeting extremely challenging tolerances such as wall tolerances as tight as +/- .0005 and tightly controlled concentricity.
