The medical equipment sector is an industrial field where manufacturers are faced with significant challenges and a sector characterized by very strict regulatory requirements which impose the production of impeccably functioning equipment under perfect hygienic conditions. Added to this is the variety of sizes required for each type of technology and the diversity of complex equipment with which manufacturers work in this sector, without forgetting their responsibility towards patients around the world. The demanding quality standards of this environment are therefore obvious.

Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence provides metrology techniques and reporting solutions specially developed to meet the high standards of medical system manufacturers. Ultra-precise three-dimensional measuring machines (CMMs) are used to examine high-precision metal parts, such as surgical supplies. The use of non-contact laser scanning and optical measurement techniques guarantees rapid and precise measurement of small and fragile parts, including ultra polished or malleable surfaces which are not suitable for tactile measurement.

Our metrology software packages incorporate customizable reporting functions that allow manufacturers to meet high regulatory requirements, while CAD / CAM software allows the design of the complex tools necessary to form profiled components suitable for human anatomy. With Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence's quality assurance tools, medical equipment manufacturers can help people improve their quality of life.
