Compamed 2017 –  VDMA and eight member companies present medical technology solutions

At Compamed from 13 to 16 November 2017 in Dusseldorf, the VDMA Medical Technology Association will be present with a joint stand (Hall 8a, Stand N35), together with the following eight member companies:

For more than 70 years Bielomatik leuze has been developing and implementing plastic welding processes for a wide range of applications with a high degree of individualization. Holistic means: Support and guidance from material selection through component design, to prototype and pre-series welding, during product development followed by formulation of an optimal production configuration, the qualification build and installation of the production equipment as well as  a sustainable relationship during production life time by means of the comprehensive "Connected Service". In a nutshell: high-tech with a human touch.

IMSTec GmbH develops manufacturing processes for medical products up to fully automated production lines. With the help of their in-house departments for image processing and software development, IMSTec GmbH creates tailor-made solutions that are optimally adapted to the high demands of the pharmaceutical industry. Their portfolio includes processes such as extrusion, coating, inspection and packaging.

With its INDEX and TRAUB brands, the INDEX Group is today one of the world’s leading manufacturers of CNC turning machines. The Esslingen group of companies is present around the world with five production sites, five international sales and service companies as well as 80 representative offices. The particular strength of the INDEX Group is the development of the best manufacturing solution for each customer. The INDEX and TRAUB high-precision dynamic lathes and turn-mill centers are optimal for the production of complex implants, prostheses, instruments or devices.

Mikron Tool develops and manufactures tools for stress-free machining of rust- and acid-resistant as well as biocompatible materials. When metals come in contact with the human body, there are no compromises: absolute compatibility is required, even in the long term. And with implants, the material should also be as light as possible. Only high-quality metals can be used, which are extremly demanding in processing. Mikron Tool has focused in recent years on the production of small diameter cutting tools and materials, which are mainly used in medical and dental technology: stainless steels, titanium and chromium-cobalt alloys.

RoweMed AG is an innovative plastic-manufacturing MedTech company. The focus is on complex customized systems, especially for the handling of sensitive pharmaceuticals. "Turnkey" projects for the customers are realized, from the initial sketch to CAD design and rapid prototyping right through to an approved serial product. For all projects we offer the complete documentation. In the certified clean rooms, RoweMed offer injection molding, assembly and packaging from a single source. This is how high-efficiency individual processing, small series and automated large series are realized.

SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES is a mechanical engineering company that develops and builds machinery for economical and resource-efficient production processes. The application areas of the machinery built by SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES span vacuum thin-film and plasma coating, wet-chemical cleaning and etching processes, as well as thermal process technologies. SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES draws on its expertise in the fields of automation and process engineering for all machinery, processes and applications, and is thus able to supply innovative products for the solar, semiconductor and optical disc application areas as well as other attractive fields of activity.

steute develops and manufactures human-machine interfaces for medical applications with great care. Many years of know-how in the areas of ergonomics and usability make steute a reliable partner for the world's leading medical device manufacturers. The current product program includes, among other things, hand and / or foot-operated actuating devices, wired or wireless, for the fields of surgery, dental medicine, diagnostics, ophthalmology and orthopedics. The safety, quality and availability of the products has the highest priority for steute.

With CodeMeter®, Wibu-Systems provides a comprehensive protection, licensing, and security technology which allows medical device manufacturers and medical software publishers to easily encrypt sensitive digital assets, distribute tailor-made software licenses, and manage their business models dynamically with a platform fully integrated with ERP, CRM, and e-commerce solutions. This technology supports medical producers in their fight to safeguard the technical know-how in their devices and applications against illicit and fraudulent use, reverse engineering, tampering, sabotage, espionage, and cyber-attacks and ensures complete compliance with FDA or MPG directives.

VDMA (Verband Deutscher Maschinen- und Anlagenbau, Mechanical Engineering Industry Association) represents more than 3,200 mostly medium-sized companies in the capital goods industry, making it the largest industry association in Europe. The VDMA Working Group Medical Technology represents supplier, manufacturers of production equipment and all industry sectors active in the field of medical technology sector inside a joint platform.
