The invention provides methods for manufacturing components for use in devices for producing skin graft material. The invention provides manufacturing methods for creating plates, preferably metallic plates, for use in preparing skin grafts. Manufacturing methods as described herein are useful to fabricate plates for use in devices as described below. Methods of the invention result in plates for use in harvesting skin grafts produced by the application of blistering to a donor site. Methods of the invention involve the generation of a plurality of plates having substantially planar mating surfaces from a material, preferably a metallic material. Preferably, at least one of the plates has substantially uniform thickness throughout the plate. In certain embodiments, each of the plurality of plates has a substantially uniform thickness throughout each plate and/or with respect to each other. The plurality of plates can be generated from the same material, or different materials. |
