[0002] With the unique structure and superior performance, braided medical devices such as dense mesh stents, thrombus extraction stents, catheters, embolic protection systems, and covered stents can not only effectively meet various complex surgical and therapeutic needs, but also significantly improve the efficiency and safety of medical operations. However, after the braiding process is completed, there are often multiple free ends at both ends of the braided medical device. If these free ends are not properly handled, they may become potential safety hazards.

[0003] In the prior art, the application of welding technology has largely solved the problem of free ends at both ends of braided medical devices, achieving a more secure and reliable connection. However, it is worth noting that from a macro perspective, even with welding and other processing methods, it is still difficult to completely eliminate the risk of free ends causing harm to the human body under certain conditions. For example, under long-term use or extreme conditions, the welded parts may loosen or break, causing the free ends to be exposed again, which may cause harm or health risks to patients. Therefore, for the design and manufacture of braided medical devices, a safe and effective braiding mold is needed to ensure that free ends are effectively avoided during the braiding process.
