Advanced Technology is the Cure for Medical Manufacturing Ailments

Advanced Technology is the Cure for Medical Manufacturing Ailments

The growing trend toward less invasive surgical procedures, together with patient-specific implants and devices, continue to present production challenges for medical manufacturers. Whether producing consumables, implants or surgical tools, these manufacturers face continuously shrinking part sizes, increasingly complex geometries and tighter tolerance requirements than ever before – all within high-mix/low-volume (HMLV) production environments.

 

Fortunately, the prognosis is good for medical manufacturers if they apply fully automated turnkey cells from GF Machining Solutions that combine multiple advanced process technologies such as high-speed milling, EDM, laser texturing and micromachining. With this approach, medical manufacturers can maintain compliance with stringent ISO 13485 medical standards, easily generate complex part geometries and keep pace with ever changing production demands, and do so cost effectively.

 

These truly advanced cells also allow for complete system monitoring, as with rConnect software and hardware from GF Machining Solutions, which provides all the benefits of digital connectivity and Industry 4.0 for a manufacturer to optimize their operations. 


In terms of advanced technology, GF Machining Solutions is the industry authority on medical manufacturing and our new Medical Center of Competence in Lincolnshire, Illinois is a testament to that. Our innovative facility not only creates an environment for project collaboration, but also provides a place for medical manufacturers to learn how the latest advanced manufacturing technologies, together with automation, boost their productivity and keep them competitive. We will celebrate the Medical Center of Competence grand opening on April 19 from 8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m..


Join the GF Machining Solutions team on April 19th.  Experience the advantage of having direct access to our industry-leading medical application support teams as well as sales and service representatives. With extensive experience in the manufacture of complex, high-precision parts, we provide strategies and technologies for improving the production of medical instruments, orthopedic and trauma implants, consumables, dental parts, packaging and more.
