Precision Coating Services for the Medical Device Industry
30 years of expertise in polymer coating application for robotic surgery, electrosurgery, and medical devices
The Surgical Coatings Advantage
For over 30 years, Surgical Coatings has been the trusted partner for OEMs and medical device manufacturers worldwide. Our exclusive focus on polymer coating application services for surgical, electrosurgical, and robotic surgery components ensures unparalleled quality, precision, and repeatability.
Decades of Experience
Over 30 years specializing exclusively in coating application for medical devices
Automated Precision
Automated liquid and powder coating systems designed for high-volume production
In-Process Coating Thickness Control
Integrated monitoring systems ensure coating thickness remains within exceptionally tight tolerances
Accurate Mask Lines
Virtual Masking™ technology achieves coating-free areas with clean, precise edges — no overspray
Quality isn’t just an inspection step — it’s our culture. Our “Mother Test” ensures that every device we coat meets the standard we’d trust for our own loved ones. Because in the medical device world, “good enough” isn’t good enough.
Virtual Masking™ Technology
Our proprietary Virtual Masking™ laser ablation system ensures precise coating-free areas and eliminates overspray — even in tight geometries.
Tolerances as tight as ±0.0002 in. | No flaky edges
Chamfered edges allow instrument to pass smoothly through cannula and patient tissue
Coating Chemistries & Functionalities
From electrical insulation to abrasion resistance, the coatings we apply enhance performance and safety across a range of materials and medical device applications.
• Chemistries: Polyurethanes, Epoxies, Silicones, Polyimides, Fluoropolymers, Ceramics, Metallics and more.
• Functions: Electrical Insulation or Isolation, Abrasion and Corrosion Resistance, Glare Reduction, Thermal Isolation, and Non-stick.
Every coating we apply supports the performance, safety, and longevity of medical devices that improve lives. Through proprietary automation, advanced masking technology, and tailored chemistries, we deliver unmatched precision and repeatability that meet FDA and medical device standards.
Our automated coating systems continuously monitor coating thickness in-process using advanced laser micrometers. This ensures every coating meets exact specifications, even across complex geometries
SPC Data Tracking for Full Validation
Every production run uses Statistical Process Control (SPC) to verify consistency and performance. This provides full traceability and process control that complies with FDA and ISO standards.
Custom-Built Automation — Zero Manual Error
Each system is engineered in-house, tailored to our coating process and product demands. By eliminating manual spraying and off-the-shelf variability, we achieve tighter tolerances, repeatability, and competitive cost efficiency.
