Case Study – Medical Laboratory Equipment Manufacturer

Moseys offered dynamic, next-generation solutions that optimized the production processes for one of the world’s leading medical equipment manufacturers.

Medical research and pharmaceutical engineering require precision equipment designed to reliably execute extraordinarily complex tasks with the highest degree of accuracy. Moreover, these devices must perform to the highest standard while being largely unattended. Medical technologies must be state-of-the-art, adaptable, and high-performance, as the tests and analyses performed by medical laboratories have life-or-death connotations.

A premier global medical diagnostics and life sciences brand wanted to upgrade the design of an underperforming piece of proprietary equipment. The production and assembly of their Automated Labware Positioners were costly and inefficient, resulting in unacceptably high overheads and slow manufacturing turnarounds.

The team at Moseys partnered with the manufacturer to determine improved production strategies and reconsider the materials used for the equipment’s fabrication. The company had been using the same production processes for decades, putting them at a distinct competitive disadvantage. They needed leaner, more flexible, lower-cost solutions to remain competitive with newer companies that were adopting more advanced manufacturing techniques.

Drawing upon decades of engineering expertise and in-depth knowledge of medical equipment production, the engineering team at Moseys was able to develop significant design improvements that optimized manufacturing processes and utilized lighter, stronger, and more cost-effective materials.

The new strategies facilitated faster product introduction at a significant cost saving. After project implementation, end-to-end production processes were shortened by more than 25 percent, at a reduced annual overall cost of $126K.
