Abstract
A method for forming a wave form for a stent includes providing a length of a formable material from a supply of the formable material in a feeder along an axis in a first direction in between a first forming member and a second forming member. The second forming member is positioned closer to the feeder than the first forming member. The length is about the length of a substantially straight portion of the wave form. The method also includes moving the first forming member in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction to a position in contact with the formable material, and moving the second forming member in a third direction substantially opposite the second direction to wrap the formable material about a distal end of the first forming member.
