With the rise of orthopaedic surgery in the mid-20th century, driven by advances in medical science and a growing understanding of the human musculoskeletal system, the demand for highly specialised surgical instruments soared. UK manufacturers were at the forefront of this evolution, developing tools specifically designed for delicate bone surgeries, joint replacements, and fracture repairs.

In this era, UK companies began introducing custom-made instruments tailored to the needs of individual surgeons and procedures, elevating the precision and effectiveness of orthopaedic surgeries. This emphasis on bespoke manufacturing further solidified the UK’s reputation as a centre of excellence for surgical instrumentation.

Paragraph

At Oracle Precision Ltd, we leverage advanced CNC machining techniques, including full 5-axis CNC and sliding head (Swiss-type) machining, to produce intricate surgical instruments. Our commitment to quality is further evidenced by our in-house citric acid passivation to ASTM A967/A967-17 standard specification, which ensures corrosion resistance and compliance with medical-grade standards. This eco-friendly process underscores our dedication to both safety and sustainability.

From design to manufacture, we can also rapidly produce prototype medical devices in various volumes for testing, demonstration, and trials. As rapid prototyping experts, our team can produce one-off or batch medical device prototypes with a superior turnaround time.

With over 30 years of expertise in crafting high-quality, precision-engineered surgical instruments, we are a leading UK subcontract machining company with a range of medical manufacturing specialities.
