Injectable device assembly

Trends

The indirect cost and patient inconvenience of visiting clinicians for injections are driving innovation. Driven by an ageing and more demanding consumer, device and drug companies are seeing a need to simplify the use of injectable drug delivery.

At the same time designing and mass-producing devices to be used by patients requires specialist expertise.

Challenges

Time to market

With increased competition and rapidly changing regional requirements, time to market is vital.

Focus

Pharmaceutical companies are focusing investment on creating drug patents, outsourcing device design and manufacture to consultancy and contract manufacturers.

Single-use devices

As drug delivery devices reach developing nations, it’s important to limit risk of contamination, damage or misuse.

Patient application

When designing devices to be used by untrained patients, they need to be ergonomic, with haptic materials and packaging.

Approach

Through process development and product design for manufacturing, our consultant engineers are here to advise you every step of the way – from technology, materials and handling to injectable device product assembly.

We ensure our product assembly processes are robust, stable and scalable to give you a competitive advantage at every stage of the development process.

Process

You’ll have our support at every stage of the development process, from research and development to pilot and first production machines to repeated lines. We ensure precision machinery is deployed successfully every time. And afterwards, you’ll be supported by our dedicated customer service team, wherever you are in the world.

Research and development (R&D)

Our process and product specialists provide product consultancy, ready-made process solutions and trails.

Development cells

We sell R&D automation process development cells including electrical, pneumatic, control and motion elements. And we specialise in rapid and early automation, introducing automation process validation in a controlled environment.

Pilot line

We provide platform-based solutions for low volume production batches. Either fully automated or semi-automated with operators safely interacting with the machinery. All the benefits of launching to market with a scalable investment – rapid, safe, validated and affordable.

Factory

Everything from fully automated solutions, scaling up validated processes to incorporating feeding, inspection and downstream processes. This includes primary packaging, cartoning, case packing and palleting.
