About Marquardt axomed
Marquardt axomed GmbH distributes and manufactures implant systems for osteosynthesis, focusing on trauma and foot surgery. Marquardt Medizintechnik implants are manufactured 100% at the Spaichingen location, where development, design, manufacturing, and quality assurance work seamlessly together. The portfolio includes stable angle plate systems (WINSTA, PEDUS), locking nail systems (VITUS, LBN), compression screws (TWIN), pelvic and ankle systems, as well as mini-fragment, small-fragment, and large-fragment implants. It is predominantly manufactured from titanium or Ti6Al4V, and partially from steel; surfaces are treated by Type II anodizing and subtractive abrasive blasting. As a complete provider, the company offers consulting services from medical product consultants, order processing, logistics, and sterile packaging of the implants (MAXsteril/MAXhybrid). The products are delivered to clinics in Germany and Austria. Marquardt axomed GmbH is a family-run company based in Freiburg, resulting from the merger of Marquardt Medizintechnik (founded around 1980) and the distribution company axomed (founded in 2005).

Materials and Processes
Titanium
Main material for plate systems, locking nails, and screws, often with Type II anodizing.
Ti6Al4V
Titanium alloy, e.g., for PipTree implants, MIS screws, VITUS-PF femoral nails, and Click-off screws.
Steel
Used for hip screw plate systems (HCPS/DHS), condylar plates, clamps, and mini-fragment implants.
PEEK
Polymeric screw retention in the LBN humerus nail.
Type II Anodizing
Surface treatment of titanium implants for high biocompatibility and reduction of cold welding.
Subtractive Abrasive Blasting
Creates microstructured thread surfaces, e.g., in the TWIN-CF screw system, for enhanced osseointegration.
