Veterinary instruments manufacturing is based mainly on Hand skill work. The master craftsmen spend their lives to learn the art and then produce world class instruments.
Material
First stage is the selection of material for a particular item keeping in view the required specifications. As discussed in my first post majority of the surgical instruments are manufactured from different Stainless steel grades. These grades for particular range of instruments can be found in standards like ISO 7153/1, BS 5194-4, AISI (F899).
