Precision Machining for the Medical Industry

April 15, 2020

At On Time Precision Components, we are ready to help in the fight against COVID-19. We want to do our part in protecting the front line, including healthcare workers. Our history manufacturing for the aerospace, military, and medical industries gives us familiarity with the inspection and traceability requirements for the parts desperately needed at this time.

 

How can On Time help with the current ventilator shortage?
Our machining, turning, and swiss machining capabilities allow for the manufacturing of most ventilator parts. Because we have an understanding of the inspection procedure, we can seamlessly integrate into a medical manufacturer’s production process and increase their supply of critical components.

How can On Time help with any other medical component shortages?
Tooling components is our specialty. That gives us the ability to manufacture the small parts needed for masks, shields, sanitizer production lines, mold inserts, ejector pins and more. Many of these smaller yet critical items become the “Achilles heel” when quick turn-around of custom tooling is required. We can take this burden away and speed up the process.

Machining capabilities for medical components 
On Time Precision Components has vertical CNC 4 axis milling centers from 18” x 32” up to 20” x 40” table sizes. We have multi axis turning with bar feeders up to 2-1/2” diameter bar feed capacity, as well as 26mm diameter swiss machining capabilities. Our CMM lets us perform the full FAI functions required for the medical part manufacturing process.

What is On Time currently doing to help the medical industry?
We currently support customers manufacturing medical diagnostic equipment that is being tested for detection of COVID-19. We are also producing parts for ventilator suppliers while exploring the possibility of manufacturing our own portable intubation boxes to protect front line workers from the spread of the virus.

In the short term, On Time is actively seeking to help anyone who requires a manufacturing partner to get their product to the front line workers and keep them safe, while aiding in the detection and elimination of this pandemic. Our long term hope is to continue working with these innovative thinking companies to ensure our communities are never put through trying times like these again.

If you are a business looking for a machining partner, contact us today. Let’s work together to stop the spread of COVID-19 and keep healthcare professionals and the public safe.
