The Cathtip Nexus is a compact, desktop-sized RF catheter tipping machine built for dedicated, high-throughput production. With 1.2kW of solid-state power and a next-generation tooling cartridge system, it delivers toolless changeovers and closed-loop PID heat control without the inconvenience of a bulky water chiller.
The Nexus RF tipper is the right choice for simple tipping, bonding, and flaring that don’t require servo-driven motion or extensive recipe development. For applications that do, see the Cathtip Magnum Tipper.
