ASYS Applications in the Life Science Industry
Increasing life expectancy combined with new possibilities of diagnostics and therapeutics offers new opportunities to help patients worldwide. Automation in the Life Science industry is the key lever to reduce costs while increasing quality. We offer comprehensive and GMP-compliant machine and process solutions from one source. Even if your application is not listed below, please contact us. True to our motto „Transforming Ideas“, we look forward to your request.
Medical Electronics
The ASYS Group is the leading automation company in the electronics manufacturing industry. In addition to the solar and semiconductor industry, we apply our expertise to the Life Science industry. The innovative systems realize tasks from incoming goods, production, up to the storage of components and products. Over 1,500 employees develop and implement turnkey solutions at 13 locations worldwide. We have already developed and built systems for the continuous monitoring of blood glucose levels, sensor technology for blood gas analysis at the point of care or the production of sensors for blood pressure monitoring. We have also realized test systems for medical devices or the production of control units for hospital equipment.
Diagnostics
Fast and reliable test cartridges are required for the comprehensive diagnosis of viruses, bacteria and germs, not only since COVID 19. We supply efficient and reliable production systems for manufacturers of rapid in-vitro diagnostic tests at the point of care (POC), who are required to manufacture these in accordance with ISO 13485 or FDA 21 CFR Part 820. On our ASYS systems, we produce sophisticated consumables in a matter of seconds.
Implants
Implants, mostly class III medical devices, require special care in their manufacture. Components for pacemakers or hearing implants, for example, are produced and tested on our ASYS systems. Our systems are also used to package class IIb medical products, such as knee joints or ceramic hip joints, or to mark them with a Unique Device Identification (UDI). Sensitive processes which can only have one thing in common - reliability and know-how - we offer both.
Imaging Diagnostics
The production of imaging diagnostic devices is not characterized by high volumes. Nevertheless we are a supplier of components for this challenging niche. With our printing systems for the finest 3D structures, we contribute to a significant improvement in imaging resolution. Here the flexibility and precision of additive manufacturing pays off.
Pharmaceuticals
The automation of the production of pharmaceuticals - we also realize this with our ASYS systems. This starts with handling tasks in the loading and unloading of containers and trays, continues with stacking for pasteurizing injection solutions in glass vials and continues with the production, labelling and palletizing of combination packs. We can even offer the printing of solid pharmaceuticals using the screen printing process. All from one source.
Our Solutions for the Life Science Industries
As a leading machine builder for automation solutions, we also apply our expertise in electronics production to other life science industries. Over 1,500 employees at 13 locations worldwide develop and implement turnkey solutions in accordance with GxP guidelines.
In 1998 we first began to develop laser marking systems for the traceability of electronic components - a lot has happened since then. In addition to different product lines for marking components, today we use a wide variety of laser sources (green, fiber, Co2, UV) for cutting, soldering or welding. Visual monitoring and verification are useful additions. To this day, we have already supplied thousands of standard and special solutions to various industries. On this basis we are constantly expanding our customer segments and therefore we also offer you our competence in marking and verification for your challenges in the life science industry.
Regardless of material, size or contour - our DIVISIO depaneling machines separate your PCB from the panel with a precision of 10µm. Whether as stand-alone solution, inline or offline system - we deliver a machine that is perfectly adapted to your requirements and your production. We rely on proven separation processes: sawing and routing. The 1000th sold system proves the success and experience of 20 years of DIVISIO depaneling. Especially in the Life Science sector, laser depaneling has proven itself in many projects. The avoidance of mechanical stress, the accuracy, the cleanliness but also the high output capacity makes it the ideal solution for the demanding field of medical technology and diagnostics.
Since many years ASYS has been solving assembly tasks for customers in a wide range of industries such as automotive, consumer goods or industrial products. In the INVENTUS division, the most diverse automation processes and technologies are combined to create customer-specific solutions. We have newly developed life science assembly platforms and tailored them specifically to the requirements of the regulated industry. We use modules from all business units. This helps us to provide a process-safe and GxP-compliant solution at short notice.
Originally started with the integration and automation of test adapters for printed circuit boards, today we develop and integrate a wide variety of tests for the manufacturing processes, optical checks, leakage tests or functional tests. If required, the whole thing can also be 21 CFR Part 11 (ER/ES) compliant.
The automation of production processes is often divided into different value-added steps. Partly at different locations worldwide. The intermediate storage or outsourcing of components for further processing characterizes this process. We use our expertise in handling components, trays and pallets on a daily basis to further perfect the automation process. In doing so, we build on our standard product PARIO, but we are happy to adapt it to your process. The solution to your task is our focus. This is our mission.
The ASYS subsidiary EKRA offers standard printing systems and customized solutions for thick film applications. Further areas of application are the printing of fine structures, three-dimensional bodies (3D printing) or functional layers on various materials such as glass, ceramics, LTCC/HTCC, foils, metallic tubes or wafers.
Autonomous material supply is the central element of the intelligent factory. ASYS is a system provider that can offer the customer a complete solution. The Dry Tower and the Magazine Warehouse are the cornerstones for ASYS to implement complete solutions in the field of material logistics. Another element are self-organized AIVs, which allow material flows to be planned in advance in order to avoid production stops. In addition, software products are increasingly coming into focus in order to coordinate complex processes in line with requirements. The Material Manager collects information from all systems in the shop floor and makes the right decisions based on the data.
With digitalization, the focus is shifting from hardware solutions to software topics. The ASYS PULSE PRO Software Suite offers seven software modules that will help you to control automated material flows in the shop floor, to achieve a dynamic just-in-time supply for each production step and to track all data flows. PULSE PRO is easily operated via a cockpit and meets the highest demands for simple handling. The high quality usability is based on the tasks of the operators. Even with complex contents and functions, the users find their way to their goal quickly and easily.
