LECTRONICS FOR July/August 2026 In this issue
he distal tip of a single-use ureteroscope is smaller than a grain of rice. Inside it, engineers must house a camera chip and an illumination source, contain and seal both elements with a high degree of precision, integrate irrigation channels and seal the entire assembly against fluid ingress - all within a diameter of just 3.302 mm. That profile demands complex 3D geometry, tight tolerances and wall thicknesses that push traditional production processes to their absolute limits. It is a precise, unforgiving constraint and it is far from unique... Read more on Page 30
