Challenge:
A well-established medical design company approached Allen Field for help with the manufacturing of several casings for their medical equipment. The various items required multiple methods of manufacturing using different materials.
Solution:
- Plastic Casing: Allen Field blew molded poly propylene to create the component. Our sixteen years of experience in overseas manufacturing processes has established connections with the highest skilled factories.
- Die-cast Housing: Zamak-3 is the most common alloy for hot chamber die casting; with a combination of superior mechanical properties and low melting/manufacturing costs, it fulfills the needs for most die casting applications.
- Foam and Metal Rods: For both laboratory instruments, foam and metal rods were also produced to hold medical vials in place while shaken. Quality and stability were key attributes in mind when sourcing and manufacturing these pieces, as they directly secure the fluids.
Results:
At completion, Allen Field was able to successfully source and manufacture multiple components: plastic casing for a medical mixer, a die-cast metal housing for a similar medical stirrer, and quality foam and metal rods to finalize each piece. With our global affiliations and expertise, Allen Field can complete custom projects at an economic price to meet your needs.
