Orthopedic & medical

Orthopedic implant & surgical instrument industry.

The art of finishing

The medical industry is becoming increasingly more demanding, which is causing finish-related quality standards to become more and more stringent. This is also the case for implants and surgical instruments, which is often completely finished up to the sterilization process.

In order to meet the stringent requirements of the orthopedic industry, a manufacturer needs a partner with unique expertise in terms of sanding and finishing.

With 75 years of experience, Cibo is the trusted specialist in this field.

Higher productivity

Increasing demand is an important factor as well. This means that operators must work with products that save both time and costs. One such product is the Rebel One unitized sanding wheel. These wheels are manufactured through a state of the art production process that was optimized for the orthopedic industry even at the ingredient level.

The modified production process allows us to combine a high cut rate with cool grinding and a very fine finish. The higher cutting speed also reduces heating of the work piece.

Orthopaedic & medical product line

The use of a new generation synthetic resin and a unique production process has allowed us to develop unitized sanding wheels that enable you to manufacture high-quality implants and instruments at high volumes, continuously.
