Why Engaging Your Contract Manufacturer Early Matters: The Case for Pre-Production Design Input
Your program’s bill of materials reflects the product design intent, but it may not account for your contract manufacturer’s production realities. Any design changes due to manufacturability or commercialization issues could derail your innovation’s quickest, most resourceful path to market. Analytical instruments, diagnostic platforms, and complex automation systems carry their own mix of components and […]
Build to Print vs. Build to Print Plus: Which Contract Manufacturing Approach Is Right for Your Medical Device?
When you’re ready to move a medical or life sciences product from design into production, one of the most consequential decisions you’ll make is how, and with whom, you manufacture it. For many organizations, that means choosing a contract manufacturing partner. But even once you’ve identified the right partner, a subtler question remains: what level […]
Automate Early or Lose Ground: The Real Cost of Manufacturing Scale-Up Timing
During launch, the production team is focused on one thing: getting product out the door on schedule. Design verification and validation, regulatory submission cycles, and that first commercial shipment all take priority over how the line will run at 5x volume. So the fastest path to a working line wins, and that almost always means […]
Designing Automation for Hard-to-Train, Hard-to-Retain Manual Manufacturing Processes
Today’s medical device and life sciences manufacturers are losing ground on one of the most critical inputs to production: skilled labor. Precision production line tasks like soldering, inspection, complex sub-assembly, and implantable component bonding all require a level of manual dexterity and technical judgment that takes months to develop. Most organizations are spending six to […]
Automating Liquid-Based Cytology Sample Preparation at Diagnostic Scale
From Manual Workflows to Fully Integrated Pre-Analytical Automation A global diagnostics company sought to eliminate manual, error-prone sample preparation from its liquid-based cytology workflow for STI and HPV testing without compromising throughput, accuracy, or laboratory compatibility. Ascential delivered a 144-sample automated benchtop platform with real-time sample control and seamless integration into existing molecular diagnostics infrastructure. […]
How to Win PFA Market Share: Explore Strategic Manufacturing Automations
When developing Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) devices or other innovative medical technologies, the choice between off-the-shelf (OTS) equipment and custom automation can make or break your manufacturing process. Here’s what you need to know to stay ahead of the competition. The PFA Market Opportunity — and the Manufacturing Bottleneck Atrial fibrillation (AFib) affects millions of patients, […]
