Engineering & Manufacturing Capability
We bridge the gap between engineering blueprints and reliable transmission performance. Whether you need prototype development, replacement parts, or volume OEM manufacturing, our technical team provides complete DFM optimization and precision machining.
How ZhongYi addresses the root causes of premature gear failure, excessive backlash, and operational wear in the field:
Hospital bedside devices and laboratory environments require silent operation (<35–40 dB). Any gear mesh whine, clicking, or vibration creates patient discomfort and interferes with sensitive optical sensors.
Diagnostic fluidics and surgical instruments prohibit liquid oil lubricants that could leak or outgas. Gears must operate reliably dry or with food/pharma-grade grease using self-lubricating engineering plastics.
Micro-dosing infusion pumps and robotic surgical tools require smooth, continuous fluid delivery without pulsation or micro-jitter, demanding sub-module gear tooth accuracy (Module M0.15 to M1.0).
Components must withstand chemical sterilization (autoclave, EtO, gamma radiation) and use certified medical-grade raw materials (FDA-grade POM/Delrin, PEEK, SS304/316L) with full batch certificates.
M0.1 to M2.0 (DP 150 to DP 12)
High-precision micro CNC hobbing, Swiss-type multi-axis turning, and precision polymer injection molding.

Leading European Medical Device & In-Vitro Diagnostics Manufacturer (Company D)
31.2 dB Acoustic Noise
Ultra-Quiet Hospital Cleanroom Performance
The client needed a miniature multi-stage gearbox for hospital patient infusion pumps operating continuously at sound levels below 34 dB(A) without liquid lubrication to prevent drug contamination.
ZhongYi developed an ultra-precise micro-module (M0.25) gear train combining FDA-grade POM (Delrin) spur gears with passivated 316L stainless steel pinions. We incorporated modified tooth tip relief to eliminate meshing impacts and manufactured custom micro-injection tooling with cryogenic deburring.
Achieved verified operating acoustic noise level of 31.2 dB(A) (surpassing the 34 dB target)
100% lubricant-free dry operation with zero particulate generation or outgassing
Sustained over 12,000 continuous dosing cycles without measurable tooth wear
Passed full ISO 10993 biocompatibility testing and FDA 510(k) device submission requirements
Technical FAQ
Clear answers to common engineering, metallurgical, tolerance, and procurement questions for international OEM machinery buyers.
We process FDA and USP Class VI compliant polymers including Medical-Grade POM (Delrin 500P / 100P), PEEK (virgin and 30% glass/carbon filled for high autoclaving resistance), PA66/Nylon, and self-lubricating PTFE blends. All materials come with full resin manufacturer batch certificates.
We achieve ultra-quiet operation through three engineering methods: (1) High-accuracy micro tooth profile modification (tip and root relief) to eliminate mesh impact; (2) Polymer-on-metal alternating gear pairings to dampen resonant vibration; and (3) Helical and high-contact-ratio tooth designs that ensure smooth continuous load sharing.
We can manufacture miniature spur gears, worm gears, and pinions down to Module M0.1 (approx. DP 254) with outside diameters as small as 1.5 mm, using multi-axis Swiss micro-hobbing and high-precision micro-injection tooling.
All medical components undergo multi-stage ultrasonic degreasing and cleaning in deionized water. Stainless steel parts are passivated per ASTM A967. Cleaned parts are vacuum-sealed in anti-static, dust-free double packaging in a controlled packaging room.
