1. A method of manufacturing a system for melting a thread to separate a neurovascular implant from a pusher, the method comprising:
pinching a middle of a heater coil to a smaller diameter than at each of a distal end and a proximal end of the heater coil;
with the middle of the heater coil pinched to the smaller diameter, pushing the distal end of the heater coil in a proximal direction over the the middle of the heater coil; and
with the distal end of the heater coil pushed in the proximal direction over the middle of the heater coil, shrinking a first layer of an insulation jacket over the heater coil.
