Filed:

Jul 1, 2010

Appl. No.:

12/829337

Inventors:

Robert Boock - Carlsbad CA, US
Jeff Jackson - Poway CA, US
Huashi Zhang - San Diego CA, US
Jason Mitchell - San Diego CA, US

Assignee:

DexCom, Inc. - San Diego CA

International Classification:

C23F 1/08
B05C 9/00

US Classification:

15634524

Abstract:

Described here are embodiments of processes and systems for the continuous manufacturing of implantable continuous analyte sensors. In some embodiments, a method is provided for sequentially advancing an elongated conductive body through a plurality of stations, each configured to treat the elongated conductive body. In some of these embodiments, one or more of the stations is configured to coat the elongated conductive body using a meniscus coating process, whereby a solution formed of a polymer and a solvent is prepared, the solution is continuously circulated to provide a meniscus on a top portion of a vessel holding the solution, and the elongated conductive body is advanced through the meniscus. The method may also comprise the step of removing excess coating material from the elongated conductive body by advancing the elongated conductive body through a die orifice. For example, a provided elongated conductive body is advanced through a pre-coating treatment station through a coating station through a thickness control station through a drying or curing station through a thickness measurement station and through a post-coating treatment station
