advanced medical automation solutions
With 25 years of experience designing and building medical automation equipment and systems for discerning engineers, Summit has emerged as a trusted collaborator and custom builder for medical and pharmaceutical companies looking for inventive solutions to classic production problems.
Pharmaceutical and medical Automation Equipment
bring cutting edge technology to your manufacturing process
Manufacturing products for medical applications and pharmaceutical automation demand the highest measures of quality and tight tolerances, as well as improved production output. The equipment and systems that make mass production of medical products and pharma automation possible are some of the most complex and challenging to build in the industry.
We understand your concern with consistent product quality, lower manufacturing costs, higher productivity, and faster speed to market, Summit Engineered Automation equipment is designed and customized with your needs in mind. Our team of experienced medical automation equipment designers has been able to help numerous manufacturers develop the perfect systems for their production needs.
Whether you’re seeking solutions for medical device assembly automation or need pharmaceutical process control, we have the engineering expertise and tools to have you up and running fast and efficiently. We refuse to cut corners while still maintaining an eye on the most effective and efficient way to help you achieve your goals.
With deep industry experience in designing medical automation systems, we can help you anticipate medical regulatory requirements. For instance, the FDA requires part-by-part documentation of machine parameters, including deviations. Custom machine automation solutions with back-end support can collect and store individual part data during manufacturing, which makes verification easier and simpler for you.
As your customers’ demands continue to rise, you need a reliable supplier that knows the unique challenges of the medical automation systems industry. From robotic equipment to vision systems and conveyors and control systems, we’ll design and deliver medical automation equipment that surpasses your expectations.
In one innovative example, we designed a machine that tested pacemaker leads using abrasion. Our client tested the leads until they failed and analyzed the data to help them design more robust leads.
