Plate Bender(Rib Type)

  1. Rib-Anatomical Design
    Curved jaws match the natural contour of ribs (2nd–12th), enabling precise bending at 10°–90° without plate cracking. Reduces tissue trauma by 30% during chest wall surgeries.
  2. 130mm Maneuverability
    Compact length allows easy access to confined chest spaces, providing controlled leverage for shaping plates in minimally invasive thoracic procedures.
  3. Stress-Reduction Bending
    Rounded edges and gradual-bend technology cut plate stress by 40%, preserving titanium/stainless-steel integrity—critical for long-term chest wall stability.
  4. Sterile Durability
    Surgical stainless steel withstands 134°C autoclaving, resists corrosion, and supports 500+ reuse cycles. Cost-effective for OR environments.
  5. Ergonomic Control
    Non-slip handle ensures steady grip, reducing hand fatigue during lengthy rib fracture repairs or tumor resection reconstructions.

Plate Bender (Rib Type): What Is It?

A specialized orthopedic tool for shaping plates to fit rib contours during thoracic surgery.
With 130mm reach and rib-matched jaws, it bends metal plates for rib fracture fixation, chest wall reconstruction, or tumor repair—ensuring anatomical alignment and stable healing.

Applications of Plate Bender (Rib Type)

  1. Rib Fracture Fixation
    Bends plates to stabilize multiple rib fractures (e.g., flail chest), reducing respiratory complications.
  2. Chest Wall Reconstruction
    Shapes plates to repair congenital/post-traumatic chest deformities (pectus excavatum), restoring thoracic integrity.
  3. Thoracic Tumor Resection
    Adjusts plates to fill bone defects after rib tumor removal (e.g., chondrosarcoma), maintaining structural support.
  4. Trauma Rehabilitation
    Realigns plates during revision surgery for malunited rib fractures, improving chest mobility and reducing pain.
  5. Pediatric Thoracic Care
    130mm size adapts for pediatric rib fractures, protecting growth plates while ensuring precise, trauma-light bending.
