Why Modern Manufacturing Faces Pressing Needs
accuracy, reliability, repeatability, and verifiability Manufacturing has always had a need for accuracy, reliability, repeatability, and verifiability. Today that need is higher than it ever has been. That’s because manufacturing success now demands that each and every component that makes up a functional assembly fit together to produce an …

Closing the Loop on Catheter Crimp Quality
There is nothing quite like supplying a catheter that comes apart during use to focus a manufacturer’s attention on quality, but supplying one that doesn’t work after it’s in place comes in a close second. Both of those defects typically are caused by the failure of a crimping process used in catheter manufacturing, a process that should be simple …

A Feel for Quality
While most industries rely on precision components, there are few where the need is as critical as in medical device manufacturing. Whether it’s a tool that ends up in the hands of a surgeon or a device used every day by a patient, the consequences of a poorly manufactured component could mean the difference between life and death. How to Ensure …
Integrating Quality Control into Press-Fit Assembly
Manufacturers, particularly those involved with precision press-fit assembly, are very familiar with the following scenario. The customer’s design engineers define a part assembly’s required geometry and performance and leave the “how-to-achieve-it” part up to the supplier. Sound familiar? The standard response usually involves building very …
