Solution example showing how Röchling Medical supports customers in the development and manufacture of a complex hemodynamic monitoring system - from the idea to the finished product, with practical experience and innovative spirit.
Application & Areas of Use
Hemodynamic monitoring sensors are primarily used for the noninvasive monitoring and analysis of the heart’s pressure waves, the vascular system and blood.
As a multifaceted sensor, it can be used to generate data on various aspects of the cardiovascular system, including blood pressure, blood flow, volume status, vascular tone, cardiac function and pulmonary status. The results generated are comparable to invasive monitoring in terms of continuity, accuracy and waveform dynamics, so no performance-related compromises have to be made.
As a noninvasive procedure, there are many benefits for the patient: fewer complications, minimal risk of infection through contamination and faster patient recovery.
Product Features Overview
Hemodynamic monitoring sensors have to provide maximum comfort for the patient and user in addition to all the necessary functions.
The heart rate sensors manufactured by Röchling Medical consist of two main elements: a reusable mouse unit and a disposable sensor housing. They are compact, ergonomic and optimized for use in either hand.
Available in small, medium and large sizes, the assembly consists of about 40 complex individual parts, including inflatable bladders, high-gloss light pipes, a specially encoded RFID chip and microinjection-molded parts.
- Injection molded disposable sensor housing
- Full in-house assembly
- Inline leak test
- Packaged in customized presentation boxes
Advanced Manufacturing
At Röchling Medical, we combine intelligent downstream processing steps with classic manufacturing. After manufacturing by injection molding, our components for the hemodynamic monitoring sensor are further processed directly in the cleanroom. The assembly line specifically designed for this product includes processes such as laser marking, pad printing, ultrasonic welding, bellows bonding, and assembly, during which quality is controlled and guaranteed with inline tests.
Complex Part Production
At Röchling Medical, we specialize in the manufacture of complex parts using processes such as injection molding, with a focus on quality, compact and ergonomic design, and accuracy.
Design and Development Expertise
We provide product development support via, for example, preliminary models and prototypes manufactured in-house to perform state-of-the-art functional tests and assembly trials.
Sophisticated Toolshop
Our flawless tools are the basis for smooth production. Our in-house tool shop specializes in the design, construction and maintenance of complex, high-precision prototype or series injection molds.
