Medical Device Kit Assembly & Packaging Machine

HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT YOUR PROJECT? 

We are deeply rooted in the medical industry with many large customers and dozens of successful projects.

The Point-of-Care Diagnostics industry is ever growing and enables doctor’s offices and hospitals to quickly diagnose and subsequently treat infectious diseases on the spot, eliminating time consuming and expensive lab testing, and expediting treatment. Often times, these products and devices are in the form of test kits.

About the Medical Device Kit Assembly & Packaging Machine

Intec supplies machines to this industry that assemble and inspect these multi-component and variable-recipe test kits. These self-contained systems perform a variety of feeding, loading, inspecting, and packaging operations including carrier trays, shearing and loading test strips and desiccant packs, and feeding and loading test tubes and swabs. These machines also include a number of inspection points at critical intervals in the process. Various elevator and robotic pick-and-place elements feed the components, while our proprietary Linear Transfer Plate motion platform delivers smooth, high speed product movement throughout the process. Donor stations are in place to replace any bad or missing components. Finished kits are singulated to a heat-sealer packaging machine and are automatically offloaded in totes for the finished stores warehouse for sale.

 

SUCCESS!

In addition to engineering the design and control systems, we built and wired the electrical cabinets and fabricated the machine components in-house. Having direct oversight of the project enabled us to complete it in just 26 weeks. Successful factory acceptance testing, installation, and training took place.
