Balloon Folding Fixtures can be ordered with different lengths of folding blades that accommodate balloons from 1cm to 14cm long. The standard design folding blades can process balloon sizes from Ø1.5mm to Ø20mm. All models are equipped with heated folding blades. The blade tips are shaped into a unique interlocking profile that imparts a "fan wheel" shape to the balloon folds. The fully folded balloon is then heat-set and a vacuum is applied to lock the folds in place. Customized versions are available to process other balloon sizes. Interface Associates' Balloon Folding Fixtures are cost effective tools that are specifically developed for manufacturers of balloon catheters. These fixtures substantially speed-up, simplify and improve the balloon folding and wrapping process.
