Precision manufacturing refers to the assembly processes of extremely small, delicate and complex components and products. These components have very narrow tolerances, often less than 50 µm. The goal of precision manufacturing is to create even smaller products. Products that gain functions, features or increased performance. We know what needs to be done after 25 dedicated years of experience in the field.
There are certain topics to take into account when looking at precision automation. For products that contain small parts or complex processes, precision manufacturing could be a viable option. We offer a free pre-automation analysis to find out if this is suitable to you. Our experts will use their competences to analyze manufacturability and support you with advice. When automating is feasible, we will help you with the next steps towards the end goal.
Automating precision manufacturing generally comes to mind when thinking of five topics:
Your products require certain processes to be manufactured. Whether you require laser processes, high accuracy positioning, ultrasonic welding, gluing, dispensing, vision technology, quality control or anything else. We can develop a fitting automation solution to solve your challenges.
We are also solving challenges that require extra creativity, such as fixtures or a fresh look at the manufacturing process. With a lot of experience we are taking the next step for your production lines.
We excel in automating manufacturing processes. Especially in the life science industry. These core processes lay in micro assembly, high accuracy positioning, laser welding, gluing and vision technology for quality control. We develop custom machine solutions to automate the process to produce according to your product requirements.
Extreme precision is a necessity in life-science industries. Especially when it comes to assembly processes for life-dependent products. Examples of these products are medical devices, diagnostic disposables and biotechnology products. High precision is critical here, as these products may directly impact the health of patients.
We understand the unique demands of the life-science industry like no other. With extensive experience in developing integrated automation solutions, we understand your challenges as well. To face these challenges, we make use of Good Automated Manufacturing Practices (GAMP), Measurement System Analysis (MSA) and data-tracking. We also ensure our solutions seamlessly connect to your MES or ERP systems. Our approach is always in compliance with regulatory standards. Maintaining cleanroom conditions and the most strict quality control.
Automation is not the only subject we add value to. Our contribution goes above and beyond. We truly believe that automation is more than just a smart machine. It is the method of a developing approach to realize robust machine solutions for complex manufacturing processes. This is why we are greatly involved in Design-For-Assembly (DFA) and Design-For-Manufacturing (DFM) as well. We conduct Proof-Of-Concepts (POC) for uncertainties as well. Uncertainties such as processes, performances or material behaviors. These POCs are used to mitigate risk at an early stage. Our goal is to ensure that every aspect of manufacturing is optimized for the highest precision and efficiency possible.
Whether you are looking for small and complex manufacturing, hard to handle part assemblies, miniaturization of products or the best quality inspection systems, we can help you with our automation solutions. We develop automated production solutions in various sizes. With a lot of experience in semi-automated, fully-automated and even autonomous solutions, we take our customers from lab to fab.
For all volumes, from low to high, we have solutions that fit your unique challenges. The choice for volume is often determined by market demand, maturity level, investment level and calculated Return On Investment (ROI).
It all starts with a manufacturability challenge that others can not take. Excelling in precision automation requires a combination of skill, knowledge and technology. It requires exact processes that ensure accurate and reliable assembly. This is in accordance with the precision level and specified tolerances.
We add great amounts of value with our attention to detail, our technical competences and our knowledge in automation solutions. We have a large knowledge base with over 750 machines installed. Every machine has its own fitting solutions to customer specific challenges.
We add the most value in high-demanding industries, such as life-sciences. This value is seen as an industrial solution for small and high-quality products. These products are developed with very strict manufacturing and assembly processes. The size of these products easily fit inside a coffee cup. Tight tolerances, precision and reliability are our key words.
