Overview: A medical device manufacturer was developing a new portable diagnostic instrument that required highly reliable and sanitary input devices.
Challenge: Medical devices demand high standards for cleanliness and precision. The input devices must not only be precise but also easy to clean and disinfect, preventing any risk of contamination.
Solution: We engineered a series of custom membrane switches that were integrated into the medical device. These switches were designed with a flat, sealed surface that eliminated crevices where bacteria could accumulate and were manufactured using medical-grade materials suitable for frequent cleaning with harsh disinfectants.
Results: The integration of our membrane switches enhanced the functionality and safety of the medical diagnostic instruments. The devices received positive feedback from healthcare professionals for their reliability and ease of use. The easy-to-clean interface also met the stringent hygiene standards required in medical environments, leading to a successful product launch and increased trust in the manufacturer’s brand.
