Process speed and control are two of the many benefits that UV curing adhesives can bring to manufacturers bonding medical plastics. To build an accurate and repeatable new process, all process variables need to be understood, so they can be eliminated or kept within acceptable tolerances. Here Peter Swanson, Managing Director of Intertronics, explains how medical device manufacturers can achieve a reliable and repeatable UV curing adhesive process.

Compact and portable, bench-top point-of-care testing devices enable fast, reliable medical sample results. Considering the motion demands, including the needs for precision and repeatability, as well as energy efficiency and cost effectiveness, selecting the right solution is critical, as Portescap's Application Engineer, Dan Cisier, explains.
