Explore our certified orthopedic systems, manufactured under strict ISO 13485 standards for trauma, reconstruction, spine, and minimally invasive clinical applications.
Modern internal fracture fixation relies upon immediate mechanical stabilization and preserved periosteal blood supply. However, clinical orthopedics faces continuous failure risks: screw head stripping during insertion, cold welding in titanium locking plate interfaces, screw loosening under dynamic cyclic loading, and stress shielding from mismatched elastic moduli.
As an authoritative OEM implant screw exporter and manufacturer, Beijing ZhongAnTaiHua Technology Co., Ltd. (ZATH) resolves these clinical bottlenecks through advanced thread geometry, optimized lead-in angles, and micro-engineered self-tapping cutting flutes. Our variable-pitch headless cannulated screws generate controlled interfragmentary compression without head prominence, mitigating soft-tissue irritation in scaphoid and intra-articular fractures.

Cold-welding between titanium locking screws and anatomical bone plates presents severe complications during hardware removal. ZATH applies Type II anodization and precision-controlled taper angles to threaded screw heads, eliminating galling under extreme torque.
Dynamic spinal flexion and ambulatory limb loads cause progressive micro-loosening in low-grade fasteners. Our cortical and cancellous screws feature reverse-cutting flutes and asymmetric buttress threads that optimize holding power and pull-out resistance in osteoporotic bone.
By pairing select pedicle screws and cervical plates with PEEK Optima interbody cages and fine-tuned titanium core diameters, our fixation systems deliver an elastic modulus closer to cortical bone (18 GPa), promoting physiological Wolff's Law bone remodeling.
Operating from the Zhongguancun Science and Technology Park in Pinggu, Beijing, ZATH combines high-speed multi-axis Swiss CNC manufacturing, raw material traceability, and automated optical metrology.
Global supply chain volatility has made supply security a major risk for orthopedic brand owners and hospital distributors. Founded in 2009, ZATH maintains complete vertical control across raw material receiving, wire electrical discharge machining (EDM), CNC processing, electropolishing, surface anodization, and sterile barrier packaging.
With more than 300 experienced professionals and nearly 100 dedicated technical engineers, our facility eliminates reliance on sub-tier machining contractors. This integrated infrastructure guarantees continuous lot-to-lot consistency, rapid production ramping, and predictable delivery timetables.

Enterprise medical brand owners require more than standard production; they demand Design for Manufacturability (DFM) input, custom tooling sets, private label registration, and flexible batch logistics.
Our senior orthopedic engineering team collaborates with international R&D departments during early CAD phases to refine flute exit angles, core tapers, and thread lead-ins, cutting machining cycle times by up to 30% while improving structural integrity.
In addition to bulk non-sterile implants, ZATH supplies validated double-barrier sterile blister packs (Gamma or EO gas sterilized). Implants arrive pre-labeled with custom 2D DataMatrix barcodes, UDI tracking, and patient chart stickers to optimize operating room prep.
A screw is only as reliable as its driver. We engineer paired surgical instrumentation sets—including quick-coupling torque-limiting screwdrivers, drill bits with laser-etched depth gauges, tap sleeves, and guide wires—ensuring complete procedural synergy.
Procuring orthopedic implants across borders requires strict adherence to international regulatory standards. ZATH operates a comprehensive Quality Management System certified under ISO 13485:2016, maintaining validated technical documentation aligned with EU MDR (EU) 2017/745 Class IIb and Class III requirements, as well as US FDA 510(k) predicate device standards.
Our regulatory affairs department provides global distributor partners with full Registration Dossier packages, including certified Raw Material Mill Test Reports, Cytotoxicity and Biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993 series, Biomechanical Validation per ASTM F543 (axial pull-out strength, driving torque, and torsional yield), and validated Free Sale Certificates (FSC).

As orthopedic surgery advances toward robotics, patient-specific implants, and biological osteoinduction, ZATH invests heavily in next-generation research programs.
Eliminating secondary removal surgeries is a major focus in pediatric and sports medicine. ZATH R&D is formulating controlled-degradation magnesium-zinc alloys that provide mechanical stability for 12–16 weeks before converting into biocompatible bone minerals.
Integrating Selective Laser Melting (SLM) additive manufacturing directly into screw shank designs allows for interconnected microporous structures (300–500 μm pore size), encouraging rapid trabecular bone ingrowth and long-term biological anchoring.
We are actively exploring electrochemical nano-silver/hydroxyapatite (HA) composite coatings to prevent surgical site bio-film formation, alongside smart instrument-integrated torque-sensing chips that protect patient bone integrity in robotic-assisted surgery.
Clear, direct answers regarding metallurgy, quality control, OEM customization, regulatory support, and delivery timelines.
We manufacture our orthopedic screws primarily from medical-grade Ti-6Al-4V ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) conforming to ASTM F136 and ISO 5832-3. We also machine select fracture fixation lines from high-grade implant stainless steel (ASTM F138 316LVM) based on hospital tender requirements.
Our multi-axis Swiss CNC machining centers maintain continuous thread tolerances within ±0.008 mm, with outer major and minor diameters controlled within ±0.005 mm. Cannulation concentricity is guaranteed within 0.02 mm across all screw lengths.
Yes. We regularly produce custom screw heads with Torx, Stardrive, cruciate, square, and hexagonal drive sockets, engineered to exact customer drawing tolerances and matched with our custom torque-limiting screwdrivers to eliminate intraoperative cam-out.
Every batch undergoes rigorous in-house mechanical testing in accordance with ASTM F543: Annex A1 (Torsional Strength & Breaking Angle), Annex A2 (Driving Torque), Annex A3 (Axial Pull-out Strength), and Annex A4 (Self-Tapping Performance). Complete test documentation is provided with every shipment.
We supply pre-sterilized double Tyvek-PET blister packs validated under ISO 11607 (Gamma radiation or EO sterilization), complete with 2D DataMatrix UDI barcodes, tamper-evident seals, and customized multi-language hospital peel-off labels.
Catalog inventory orders ship within 48 to 72 hours via international express (DHL, FedEx, UPS, TNT, or EMS), arriving in most global destinations within 4 to 6 business days. Custom OEM/ODM production batches typically deliver within 4 to 6 weeks, depending on tooling requirements.
