Hoosier started as a plastic machining company over 30 years ago. Over this time we have built a powerful knowledge base of do’s and don’ts in plastics, especially with Implantable PEEK®. Machining dry requires the proper speeds and feeds and tool design/selection to not only make a good part, but to ensure that burrs are kept to a minimum and your machine finish is as good as possible.

EXPERIENCE GOES A LONG WAY TOO
Machining your parts is the first step, but deburring can still pose a risk to parts for the untrained. Hoosier has dedicated Implantable PEEK®deburr specialist that understand how to eliminate burrs and verify burr free under a minimum of 10x of magnification.

ALL THINGS PEEK
Spinal implants, shoulder anchors, dental caps, pacemakers, plates, etc. The list goes on and on. Think Implantable PEEK®. Think Hoosier.

DRY CELL
We machine dry so not to introduce unnecessary risks during the manufacturing process. Every implant machine has a wipe down per shift where the machine, tools, and work area are all cleaned.

CELL BASED MANUFACTURING
Hoosier’s Cell Based Manufacturing ensures the most efficient product flow through our facility. Movement from the machine to deburr, laser, pin install and quality is all done within the cell to keep our efficiency and throughput at an optimum level.

LOT CONTROL
Implantable PEEK is tracked by the inch, size, and by customer in our ERP lot control system. All material is fully traceable via Work In Progress (WIP) as well as inventory reports.

VALIDATED CLEANING
Hoosier’s implantable PEEK® cleaning process has been successfully validated by an outside laboratory. Contact us today to learn more.

HIGH THROUGHPUT DEBURRING
Experience in deburring is often overlooked as a company’s core strength. Our experienced deburring team knows how to work with implantable PEEK® to ensure burr free, cosmetically appealing parts.

CRYOGENIC DEBURRING CHAMBER
Our automated deburring chamber guarantees maximum throughput while eliminating the need for typical manual deburring tools.

MICROBLAST
Sodium bicarbonate based microblast stations ensure “Burr Free” delivery of your critical components.

MANUAL DEBURRING CELL
Hoosier’s manual deburring cell is staffed with not only skilled workers, but with workers who care. Deburring is an art form that is not to be looked at lightly. Proper lighting, magnification and a variety of unique tools ensure “burr free” parts for your implant applications.

PIN MAKING MACHINE
Hoosier machines around 600 hours per day on Implantable PEEK®. We make a lot of implants. For those that require a marker, that can sometimes be quite a number of markers to generate in a fast and cost efficient manner. Our new pin machine can make up to 3600 markers per hour. Keeping up with your needs won’t be a problem.

This is me!
