Model CX with Red Crimp™ Compression Station
A full-featured radial compression machine used to attach stents to balloon catheters and many other applications in medical device manufacturing
For very long or higher-force balloon expandable crimping, the Red-Crimp mechanism brings Alpha-Crimp-like accuracy to larger sizes. Stainless steel dies are guided by extremely precise bearing balls, resulting in near-perfect geometrical accuracy. Very low friction, no die-to-die wear, near-zero die-die gaps, high radial force capability, high durability. Easily set up for use with or without film sheathing.
