The problem

A company had a supplier who was supplying them with nothing but headaches. Long lead times. Poor customer service. Not to mention, a steadfast unwillingness to provide customized alternatives due to its focus on higher volume, cataloged, off-the shelf products.

Our solution

We designed a competitive series to the supplier’s off-the-shelf push pull connector, customized to the customers’ specific aesthetics and performance requirements. As the manufacturers, we validated our connector and cable assembly to ensure performance. Our dedicated Program Manager worked with the customer to establish a tailored supplier agreement outlining inventory and safety stock levels to mitigate long lead times and offer “just in time” deliveries.

Products Key to this Case Study

EXTRUSION

We manufacture assemblies that connect medical devices or industrial consoles to surgical handpieces or measurement devices when off the shelf configurations are not available. Reusable or disposable, these include custom electrical able, tubing, or a combination of both using thermoplastic and thermoset materials.

MOLDING

We’re experts at producing low cost vertical and horizontal injection molded thermoplastic and thermoset materials smaller than a shoebox.

MACHINING

We manufacture CNC machined custom components from plastic or metal rod stock.

ASSEMBLY

We manufacture medical and industrial electromechanical assemblies requiring labor intensive or automated assembly processes, testing, and documentation in a controlled, ISO certified facility.

CAPABILITIES

You won’t find what we offer in a catalog, but you will find it invaluable. Especially when you’ve got a problem in need of a solution.
