Buckeye Shapeform Supplies Enclosures for Mission-Critical Procedure

FHC, Inc., designer and manufacturer of products for neuroscience and neurosurgical research, contacted Buckeye Shapeform to design an enclosure that would become a component of its MicroTargeting Drive System, Display and Power Assist product line. These products primarily target individual cells within the brain to treat tremors associated with Parkinson’s disease. The enclosure FHC requested would house the power source for the needle probe that surgeons insert into the patient’s brain during the treatment process.

“Buckeye Shapeform has always met our expectations related to delivery, pricing and quality. Whenever we have encountered design challenges, the Buckeye Shapeform team has always been willing to travel to our offices, meet with our staff and offer solutions to make our products the best they can be. We are very pleased with the level of service we have received from them throughout the years.” Kate Bussy Marketing & Communications Manager FHC, Inc.

The experts at Buckeye Shapeform chose the PET (plastic enclosure technology) for FHC’s product because this enclosure offers a myriad of benefits that traditional metal enclosures cannot.

For instance, because the PET can be customized to any size, the Buckeye Shapeform engineers were able to develop an enclosure that was small and lightweight, which is necessary to keep a surgical environment full of instruments and medical devices organized.

In addition, the PET offers the ability to apply an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield to its panels, which is critical in preventing the transfer of electrical currents from one medical device to another. The EMI shield ensures the motor within the device will provide uninterrupted and reliable power to the needle probe every time, offering comfort to surgeons and patients during a precise and delicate life-saving procedure.
