Forging (near-net shape)
A world leader in the net and near-net forging of exotic alloys for the orthopedic implant industry, Orchid specializes in products made from titanium, CoCr, stainless steel and zirconium. Our forging processes result in precisely crafted products that are exceptionally strong and durable, requiring little or no machining or finishing. This provides you with significant cost savings.

Casting
Orchid’s current casting capabilities include both air and vacuum investment casting along with complete product finishing. Both CoCr and stainless steel alloys are used. Robotic wax assembly and shelling systems, digital X-ray, dedicated manufacturing teams and a highly skilled workforce create quality castings that meet or exceed design specs.

Machining
The latest in machining technology includes Swiss-style and conventional turning, milling, grinding and EDM machines, as well as automated measuring systems. Some of our special processes are laser machining and welding, color coding, diamond coating, gundrilling and micro deburring. We machine both biocompatible metals and plastics, including implant-grade UHMWPE, high temperature resistant engineering plastics, thermoplastic resins and biodegradable polymers.
