The production of stents requires a high degree of precision and control. Based on nitinol, steel or cobalt chrome, the small implants are used in various areas of the human body. 

What all applications have in common is that only a flawless and high-quality product should be used. Automated processes are the necessary step towards sustainable production in order to guarantee consistent quality at high volumes and cost-efficient workflows. With an increased level of automation, companies can also compensate for a lack of skilled workers. 

We support our customers at every step along the entire value chain. From the consistent quality of the stent surface to the reliable reproducibility of all product parameters — our teams deal with the respective customer requirements from the pFMEA process onwards.

We have automated and integrated the following processes for our client:

• Laser Cutting

• Etching

• E-Polishing

• Inspection via Image Processing

• Packaging

Our range of services includes process development and plant engineering. This starts with cost-effective tabletop solutions for smaller order volumes or for support in early clinical phases. The processes themselves are characterized by a high degree of automation. This allows companies to relieve their manual work processes within production and assign qualified workers to new core tasks.

Thanks to the modular design of our systems, individual production modules can be used to increase production efficiency and improve quality-relevant parameters. By connecting the modules, the degree of automation can be increased at any time up to a fully automated system.
