Even after being autoclaved more than five hundred times, it reliably prevents adhesion to patients or medical system components. All cables intended for this application can be sterilized and are biocompatible according to EN ISO 10993-5.

Depending on the application, HEW-Silindo® medical cables have several key properties:
• HEW-Silindo® cables used in surgical robots combine fiber optic cables, coaxial elements, and plain cables. These optimized cables can withstand high tensile, tensile, and torsional loads.
• HEW medical cables for patient monitoring systems, such as miniaturized, low-noise cables, minimize and eliminate external influences like friction, twisting, or vibration, which cause disruptive signals in the form of triboelectric and microphonic noise and can significantly impact signal quality.
• For diagnostic imaging applications (CT, MRI, X-ray), HEW offers efficient and flexible flat cables that maintain their reliability even after millions of bending cycles.
• Hybrid connection cables for dental devices or dentist chairs combine electrical connections, water supply, or air supply, for example, via an integrated PTFE hose.
HEW-Silindo® is resistant to conventional sterilization processes including steam sterilization (autoclave), plasma sterilization with hydrogen peroxide gas (STERRAD® NX®), disinfection washing, ultrasonic sterilization, gas sterilization with ethylene oxide, gamma sterilization and wipe disinfection.
