Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a medical device housing includes deforming an inner surface of a shield member to produce a seam area along the inner surface. The shield member has an inner surface and an outer surface spaced apart by a shield thickness. A seam seals the inner surface seam area of the shield member to a second shield member. The shield member inner surface has a bend extending to an interior edge of the seam.
