Micro Assembly & Packaging
Similar to metrology, handling and assembling or packaging micro-sized medical devices is far more challenging, and the solutions are different than those employed in making macro-sized parts.
MTD is FDA registered and all assembly and packaging is performed in an ISO Class 8 Clean Room environment. We equip every machine with a custom-made End of Arm Tool (EOAT) specially created for each part we produce, to allow for controlled and precise in-line handling, assembly, and packaging. There is not a single part at MTD that simply is ejected into a bin.
In-line Automation
In-line automation that takes place in the micromolding cell includes:
- edge gate trimming
- visual inspection
- model to part comparison
- part coating systems
High-Speed Automated Packaging
Depending on volume, high-speed automated packaging for your micro medical components can be implemented as well, including in-line packaging options like:
- gel packs
- tape and reel
- trays
- autobagging
Custom Assembly & Packaging
Our in-house medical device assembly and packaging solutions include:
- precision gluing
- ultrasonic welding
- plastic part tip forming
- mechanical and functional testing capabilities
- custom packaging and labelling
Customers want to receive their parts/devices in a fashion that helps their downstream manufacturing, whether it is delivered in a tray or vial to line them up for the next phase.
We continue to educate our customers on what is possible with in-line automation to help streamline the manufacturing process.
