FULLY AUTOMATED PRODUCTION OF ENDOTRACHEAL TUBES
Medtronic, as one of the world's leading manufacturers of medical technology, is committed to supporting global healthcare by developing innovative treatments. The lives of patients during surgery depend on the endotracheal tubes the company manufactures, because these products ensure reliable ventilation. Consequently, the highest demands on uncompromising quality during manufacture and fault-free operation are essential. Metzner Maschinenbau GmbH has sustainably reduced the production costs of the end products and created additional production capacities with a fully automatic production system for endotracheal tubes.
Precise and safe machining
The Metzner special development department produces endotracheal tubes with high precision and cleanliness. This is ensured, among other things, by processes such as automatic loading, alignment and positioning of the tubes, processing by seven consecutive work stations and automatic quality control by sensors. Our product video will give you an insight into the machining process.
