Full Turnkey Device Manufacturing

FULL TURNKEY DEVICE MANUFACTURING

MEDICAL DEVICE VOLUME PRODUCTION RUN

Client

Manufacturer of laser Lipolysis product

Background

i-Lipo machines have had a worldwide success in particular in the USA, Europe and Asia.

Our Mission

Manufacture large volume of finished machines including PCB assemblies for both control panel and paddle assemblies as well as looms.

Customer Feedback

Unlike other more expensive systems, i-Lipo is manufactured in the UK. It is a safe and painless low level laser diode system specifically designed to have four pad options totalling 36 individual lasers which greatly reduces treatment time. It is much more affordable than surgical liposuction and other laser treatments.

FROM PROTOTYPE BUILD TO FULL PRODUCTION RUN

Client

Manufacturer of Multiline Braille e-readers

Background

2 years of product development leading to full production run.

Our Mission

Support our client during the NPI process and deliver a successful product.

Given our expertise in PCB assembly, the first stage of the build was straight forward.
The mechanical assembly was labour-intensive as it consisted in building rod lifts in the first instance. Our production line was adjusted to maximise the output from cell to line production. The final mechanical assembly consisting in integrating the PCB and rod lifts into the outer enclosure, which was followed by an intensive test procedure.

Customer Feedback

Philtronics have been our manufacturing partner for a couple of years now and have helped shepherd our Braille e-reader from prototype to a successful product. Everyone we speak to assumes we get Canute made off-shore. No-one expects that something this affordable, complex, for blind people, is manufactured in the UK.

Canute 360 has a totally original actuation method, all-custom designed hardware, including thousands of moving parts, and very tight per machine costs that makes batch manufacture a unique challenge. Building such a complex machine has required a great deal of patience, experimentation and flexibility. 

Components, quality control and build processes have required constant adjustments, often last minute or during the build itself. Therefore it was vital for our project that we had a manufacturing partner that could roll with these demanding and changing processes.

Philtronics were able to scale up from a handful of machines, to a batch of 30, to our first commercial batch of 90.

To make that sort of impact on people's lives with an original, complex and demanding product, you need to be working with the right manufacturer.
