BME 504 Medical Device Materials and Manufacturing
This course will immerse students in state-of-the-art medical device materials and manufacturing methods. Students will explore materials that are commonly used in medical devices, including metals such as nitinol and various grades of stainless steels, as well as engineering plastics such as PEEK and sustainable materials such as renewable polyethylene (PR) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The course will also introduce common manufacturing methods and design guides for each of the materials covered with the students responsible for the design and manufacture of components and subassemblies to demonstrate an understanding of the techniques. Finally, the students will be required to leverage some of these materials and manufacturing techniques to develop components and assemblies for use in their solutions for the needs identified in 叠惭贰听501 and further developed in 叠惭贰听502 and 503.
