Speed up time to market and improve medical device quality with an automated winding solution tailored to your needs.
Improve Scalability with an Automated Winding Solution
When lives are at stake, safety and regulatory compliance are critical for medical device manufacturers. How can you quickly get high-quality products to market while contending with labor shortages and turnover?
Introducing winding automation to your medical device manufacturing process can reduce time to market and improve quality and efficiency. However, transitioning from manual motor winding processes to machine winding often requires changes in design and certification. That is where Odawara can help.
Our Motor Winding Capabilities Include
- Design for Manufacturing (DFM) services to support the transition to machine winding
- Custom-engineered winding solutions for regulatory and high-quality standards
- Error-proofing sensors to eliminate loading or part handling mistakes
- Process monitoring and testing
- Connectivity to Manufacturing Execution Systems
Who We Serve in the Medical Device Industry
Our automated motor winding equipment is an excellent fit for manufacturers of motors for:
- Ventilators
- MRI machines
- PAP and CPAP respirators
- Fluid pumps
- Oxygen concentrators
- Bed lifts
- Wheelchairs
Benefits of Winding Automation for Medical Device Manufacturers
Reduced Labor Costs and Reliance
The skilled labor gap shows no signs of slowing down. Reducing reliance on human labor and training new employees speeds up task completion and saves money.
Better Quality
Automation can significantly reduce errors and in turn, wasted materials. This can bring your cost per part down and improve consistency.
Increased Production Capacity
When speed to market and scalability matter, automating parts of your device manufacturing process means less downtime and more output.
Why Odawara Automation?
What makes Odawara unique is our personalized approach. We do not offer catalog items that force manufacturers to select a machine that may not accommodate their needs. Instead, our engineers review your product drawings and manufacturing process. This allows us to offer a machine or system that truly meets your needs. It is not uncommon for us to offer additional suggestions to reduce the cost of tooling and long-term manufacturing.
3X Faster
A large motor manufacturer turned to us to engineer a single needle winding design into a three needle design. Our resulting winding process was close to 3X faster and reduced the post wind termination process by 50%.
30% Reduction
A motor manufacturer partnered with us to engineer an automatic robotic wire placement after winding. Our solution reduced the manufacturer’s labor contact on the system by 30%.
