Whitepaper on best practices, labeling concepts and verifiable cleaning processes
Laser-marked instruments have to withstand multiple cleaning and sterilisation cycles without any loss of information – while at the same time ensuring a safe, economical process. The whitepaper shows you how to coordinate labeling, materials and preparation in such a way that UDI and traceability requirements are reliably met. Benefit from practical advice for manufacturers, processing companies and clinics.
- Requirements for legibility, contrast and durability of laser markings after typical cleaning and sterilisation processes
- Influence of material, surface roughness and marking parameters on corrosion behavior and biocompatibility
- Design of robust UDI and Data Matrix Codes for automated identification and traceability
- Validation and routine control of reprocessing processes procedures to ensure long-term stability of markings
- Practical examples of the integration of laser marking into existing production and processing chains
