  • Q: What is the frequency of maintenance for pneumatic, electronic tools and calibration systems?
    A: Depending on the pincer in use, we recommend to service or grease the pincer head yourself once a week and have it checked and serviced by Oetiker once a year. To ensure the right frequency and treatment for your specific tool, please contact an Oetiker expert.
  • Q: Is the Grease used in the tool Medical Grade?
    A: Yes, in our Medical Assembly tools, we use a Medical Grade grease for aseptic processing, certified by NSF H1 leading to limitation of introduction of particulates.
  • Q: Is there a functional difference between the Medical Grade pincer and the standard that is already used?
    A: No, the pincers performance and use is identical to a standard, so no changes will be needed in your process.
