Infusion Pump Cassette Assembly Machine

An asynchronous system to assemble cassettes and claves, inspect and test for quality, and offload to bulk.

Infusion pump cassette filling line — Cassette filling line, stations 1–4

Rate / Platform

90 parts per minute. Precision Link Indexer.

Challenge to Solution

Glass-filled nylon claves were a challenge to work with using approved clean-room materials due to abrasion. The laser weld of the clave to the cassette was created internally to the part by crossing beams accurately at the correct angle.
