The production line to manufacture the new medical product was produced collaboratively by four companies and validated at the JAG premises. I2I led the project with the machine control developed by Hartech Automation and the tooling by Ion, with Jag working on the build. The machine blanked five products at a time on the large press.
The product was then fed down the line under a depositor before being fed into a packaging line supplied by Ulma. The packed product was then sent for clinical tests and, once it was approved, was ready for shipping.
The medical application required the product to be created in a unique foam format. The conceptual work completed by Jag was then developed into a fully blown production line with all the additional parties engaged.
The machine was installed in Turkey and was installed without issue. The machine can be monitored from the UK, and production upgrades can be completed over the network.
