Key Features
- Automatic stent loading with cradle system
- Servo controlled stent crimping head with Zero Gap technology
- Exchangeable pusher rods and delivery system holders for various stent diameters
- 10” user interface with recipe control
- The CR-150 is built with a very high-quality benchmark resulting in a stable and robust design with minimal cost of ownership.
- CR-150 stent crimper can be easily calibrated using the one-point automatic diameter calibration function built into the system. Calibration in seconds.
- Full process data logging to the internal PC system and transfer possibly to external USB for registration or analysis.
