Engineering Verification & Functional Testing
We help ensure your prototypes meet design intent and performance requirements. Tolerances, assembly fits, and functionality are verified to identify potential improvements before scaling production.
Design Validation & Pre-Production Trials
After design verification, we run small-batch pre-production trials to confirm repeatability, manufacturability, and compliance with medical-grade requirements.
Process Optimization & Production Testing
Before mass production, we fine-tune machining parameters, implement inspection checkpoints, and optimize production workflows to ensure efficiency and stability.
Full-Scale Manufacturing
Once validated, HRC transitions seamlessly into full-scale manufacturing. Our precision CNC machines, quality control systems, and experienced technicians ensure consistent production quality for large-volume medical parts.
Our Medical Manufacturing Capabilities
We employ a diverse set of advanced technologies to manufacture complex aerospace components.
High-Precision CNC Machining
We offer 3-, 4-, and 5-axis CNC machining for medical components requiring extreme precision. Applications include surgical tools, orthopedic implants, diagnostic housings, and medical device parts with tight tolerances down to ±0.005mm.
Medical-Grade 3D Printing
Ideal for rapid prototyping or low-volume production, our 3D printing solutions support biocompatible and sterilization-friendly materials such as PEEK, ULTEM, and medical-grade resins. Perfect for ergonomic design testing and patient-specific models.
Sheet Metal Fabrication
HRC’s precision sheet metal services are used to create medical enclosures, chassis, and custom instrument casings. We offer laser cutting, bending, and welding with smooth edges and clean finishes suitable for sterilization.

Surface Finishes for Medical Components
Surface finishing enhances both the functionality and aesthetics of medical parts. Common finishes include:
Anodizing is widely used for aluminum medical components such as housings, handles, and instrument enclosures. It forms a durable oxide layer that improves corrosion and wear resistance while maintaining excellent biocompatibility. HRC offers both clear and colored anodizing with tightly controlled film thickness to ensure consistency and smooth surfaces ideal for sterilization.
Sandblasting provides a clean, uniform matte finish that helps remove surface imperfections and machining marks. It is particularly useful for titanium, stainless steel, and aluminum parts, offering an attractive, non-reflective surface that improves grip and reduces glare. For medical devices, sandblasting ensures a hygienic surface suitable for further treatments such as anodizing or coating.
Electroplating adds a protective metal coating that enhances corrosion resistance, conductivity, and durability. In medical applications, it is often used for components that require both functionality and a clean, professional appearance. HRC provides nickel, chrome, and gold plating options with precise control over layer thickness to ensure uniform coverage and excellent adhesion.
A brushed finish creates fine, linear textures on the surface of metals, giving medical parts a professional, satin-like appearance. This finish helps conceal minor surface imperfections and provides a smooth yet non-slip texture—ideal for surgical instruments, housings, and device casings that require both aesthetics and function.
Powder coating is a durable and eco-friendly surface treatment commonly used for external medical equipment, control panels, and housings. It offers excellent resistance to chemicals, scratches, and wear. HRC provides a range of color and texture options, helping you achieve both functional protection and visual appeal while maintaining compliance with medical safety standards.
Laser engraving is an essential marking process in medical manufacturing, providing precise, permanent, and contamination-free identification. It is ideal for marking serial numbers, scales, or logos on metal and plastic medical components. HRC’s laser engraving process ensures sharp contrast, smooth edges, and no risk of ink or residue contamination — meeting medical device traceability requirements.
