Surgical Instrument Marking - Hospital Infection Control
The process of etching instruments is fast, clean, and inexpensive. The Östling surgical instrument marking systems tie in with existing hospital infection control equipment and instrument identification systems used for asset traceability and sterilizing. Unlike engraving instruments or color-coded tape, sterilization is not compromised; yet the marks are still easily readable and very durable using this hospital infection control product. Infection control today requires a rigorous identification system to maintain asset traceability.
This web page contains further details on the Östling EU80 marking system along with several accessories for use in surgical instrument marking and hospital infection control today. Östling Technologies has recognized the increasing importance of instrument traceability for hospital infection control.
Östling etching units such as the EU80 hand marker produce high quality, black marks at a depth of only a few microns, leaving no cavities, and thus offering no chance of microorganisms being harbored. The strength of the often delicate instruments used in hospitals is not compromised by using the non-corrosive, non-abrasive etching method.
The units are very simple to operate, requiring very little training to use and requiring no maintenance or calibration: the unit works trouble-free for years on end.
We now invite you to follow along as we outline a possible application our surgical instrument marking packages can be used with your infection control plan.

The etching system works by passing a low-voltage current through a pre-printed stencil. The current is transferred through the gaps in the stencil using a harmless electrolyte fluid. The imprint on the stencil is transferred onto the product in around 2-3 seconds by pressing the marking head onto the part with the stencil in between.
