Lean Manufacturing Solutions For Medical Products Companies

The medical products industry is demanding. Companies have constant pressure to manufacture new, better products or ramp up production more than ever before. If you’re struggling to keep up with industry demands, lean manufacturing can improve your workflow and productivity.

How To Improve Your Medical Product Manufacturing

An important piece of manufacturing is the flow of materials, people, and information. Lean manufacturing methods are the proven way to make sure everything flows from one place to the next in the most efficient way possible. At FlexMation, we can help your company improve flow and provide continuous improvement in your assembly areas.

Our products are easy to implement and integrate into your existing systems. These additions help improve your product quality and assembly process while reducing wasted time and resources. Our solutions can grow and change with your organization to help you stay innovative in the competitive medical products industry for years to come. Our products include:

Custom Barriers/Sneeze Guards For COVID-19 Protection

Coronavirus has changed the way businesses approach customer service. Each company is taking extra precautions to keep illnesses from spreading and to make sure employees and customers stay safe and healthy. A simple but effective precaution is a protective barrier or sneeze guard. This helps ensure your employees/customer protection during cashier transactions and customer interactions.

When your business needs sneeze guards/protective barriers, we can help! We’ll build custom solutions for your workspaces using quality aluminum framing with clear polycarbonate panels. COVID-19 can only survive on aluminum for about 2-8 hours, which makes it a great material for barriers that can be used to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. You’ll keep your employees and customers safe and healthy while providing peace of mind. Contact us today to get a quote!

Smart Klaus Assembly Assistance System

If you need to improve quality and reduce errors, you need Smart Klaus. Smart Klaus is a camera-based assistance system used during assembly and end-of-line inspection. The technology can be implemented in your existing workspaces to guide employees through every step of the assembly process.

Custom Medical Workstations

Medical workstations, workbenches, and lean work cells are important equipment in your manual production area. The more ergonomic they are, the more they’ll help eliminate wasted space and improve employee workflow. We’ve designed more than 10,000 custom workstations over the years and we’d like to help you next!

Custom Flow Racks

Flow racks improve the flow of materials, free up floor space and make products more accessible. Our custom flow racks (FIFO, Super Market, etc.) can include:

Roller configurations (rollers, slide rails, skate wheels, Span-Track)
ESD-safe
Stand-alone or integrated with a work cell/workstation

Custom Material Handling Carts

Material movement is key to an efficient process, no matter your industry. Customized material handling carts can help eliminate muscle strain for your employees while making your processes more productive.

Our carts are custom designed to suit any sized product, can be made ESD-safe and can even be integrated with our workstation systems for docking and material presentation.

Custom Controlled Environment Structures

Controlled environments are designed to limit contamination, which is especially helpful if you’re building sensitive medical devices in a clean area. Open-air, walk-in or pass-through, we’ve worked with clients from a variety of industries to create controlled environments or process enclosures specific to their needs:

Containment
Fume removal
Temperature, pressure or humidity control
Testing

Custom Emergency Medical Partitions

We can create custom emergency medical partitions for temporary hospital rooms or emergency medical centers for the Coronavirus. Emergency medical partitions can be made with aluminum profiles using white celtec panels (height 96”). Call for custom configuration.
