Medical Device Automation
Discuss Your Automation RequirementsOur Medical Device Automation solutions support precision assembly, inspection, testing, material handling and quality-controlled manufacturing processes. We develop automation around the actual product, component, assembly sequence and production requirements, with support for individual applications and wider production-line integration.
What Our Medical Device Automation Helps With
Medical device manufacturing can involve components that require accurate handling, controlled assembly and consistent verification.
Our team reviews the actual production process before selecting an automation approach. Depending on the application, the solution may involve automated handling, smart screwdriving, servo pressing, machine vision or integration between several manufacturing stages.
Precision Assembly and Material Handling
Automation can support repetitive assembly and movement tasks such as:
- Component positioning
- Pick-and-place
- Loading and unloading
- Product transfer
- Press fitting
- Screw fastening
- Movement between workstations
The handling and assembly system should be selected according to the component, required movement and surrounding production equipment.
Automated Inspection and Verification
Machine vision can support inspection where products or components need to be checked during manufacturing.
Relevant applications include:
- Visual inspection
- Defect detection
- Component verification
- Dimensional measurement
- Barcode and QR code reading
- OCR
- Positioning and alignment
The vision system should be configured around the specific product feature or quality requirement that needs to be verified.
Controlled Fastening and Pressing
Where controlled assembly processes are required, Smart Screwdriving Systems can support automated fastening with torque and angle monitoring.
Servo Press Solutions can support controlled pressing, press fitting and insertion applications. The appropriate technology depends on the assembly process and component requirements.
Testing and Production-Line Integration
Testing-related operations can be integrated with product handling, positioning and inspection so they operate as part of a coordinated production sequence.
iMS Motionet can support the wider integration process with application engineering, PLC and software support, system integration and implementation assistance according to project requirements.
