Precision in Every Fiber: High-Performance Braiding Technology for Medical Engineering

Precision and Innovation for Medical Technology

In medical technology, the highest demands are placed on precision, material, and machinery. For over 40 years, this field has been a strong focus at Körting Nachfolger Wilhelm Steeger. What began with the production of braided medical sutures has been consistently developed through constant innovation.

Highest Quality Standards for Sensitive Applications

Our braiding machines process a wide variety of materials: from the finest yarn for surgical sutures to ultra-fine wires for the production of stents. Since these products are used on and inside the human body, the source material must be flawless. Even micro-deviations or the smallest knots can affect the processability and stability of the finished braid.

Steeger braiding machines meet the highest quality requirements worldwide and are used in many areas of medical technology. We are among the technological leaders, especially in fine and ultra-fine wire processing.

"Three things stand for the development of medical technology: research, experience, and technology. The foundation of technical development is created here in Wuppertal."

Customized Solutions Instead of Standard Machines

Every braiding machine from Steeger is a unique piece consistently oriented toward customer requirements. Our developed machine control systems, in particular, offer a significant advantage — especially regarding documentation requirements in the medical industry.
