The medical and consumer wearable industries are no strangers to high volumes of intricate, multi-layered components. A diverse array of high-speed rotary die-cutting presses is a critical part of how we meet the needs of these demanding applications. 

Our multi-station, servo-driven presses open up a world of in-line value-added opportunity, allowing us to laminate, slit, surface treat, and more, all on one press. The high number of spindles and in-line capabilities help us get more done in a single pass, yielding high volumes of complex medical components faster and more cost-effectively. 

Multi-layer laminated components are a crucial way to pack more functionality in a smaller form factor. In medical manufacturing, multi-layer component stack-ups are not only the norm, but are often critical for functionality. 

For instance, a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) patch may consist of a release liner, a skin-contact layer, a sensor, and an attachment (or tie-layer) tape that secures the device itself. JBC's enhanced laminating capabilities make combining and cutting layers to shape seamless on one die-cutting press. 

Rolls of raw materials don't always come in standard widths. This can make processing and handling a challenge, as certain non-standard widths may not be optimized for die-cutting presses. 

As a vertically integrated flexible materials converter, JBC can slit these master rolls into desired widths in-house, optimizing material yield while driving down manufacturing costs for the end-user. 

For intricate bio-sensing and patient monitoring devices, the precise placement of small sensors and other functional design features can make or break a device's functionality. 

JBC's intricate island placement capabilities allow us to precisely place a smaller, intricate element within a larger component. Completed in-line, island placement makes what would otherwise be a complex manufacturing process into an efficient, repeatable, and precise process. 

It goes without saying, but consistent quality within medical manufacturing is uncompromisable. Defects can wreak havoc on new product launch initiatives, production timelines, and more importantly, risk consumer safety. 

As an ISO 13485 and ISO 9001 certified converter, JBC's commitment to quality informs every decision we make. A key part of this commitment to manufacturing excellence is our multi-camera inline vision system. Consisting of a good, better, best system, these cameras detect everything from missing part features to AI-driven "any-defect anywhere" detection. 

For more stringent medical components with requirements like HEPA filtration, humidity management, temperature control, and static mitigation, cleanrooms are a must-have part of a converter's toolkit. 

JBC Technologies is home to multiple ISO Class 8 cleanroom manufacturing environments, each with its own dedicated multi-station, high-volume rotary die-cutting press, and value-added inline capabilities like laminating, slitting, and island placement. ISO Class 8 cleanrooms typically benefit medical electronics, pharmaceutical, and consumer wellness components. 

Need to quickly validate the fit, form, and function of your design before scaling into high-volume production? For engineering trials, samples, and regulatory compliance testing, rapid prototyping services are critical. 

By side-stepping the need for expensive tooling, JBC Technologies leverages our digital cutting capabilities to quickly produce prototypes to help boost your go-to-market speeds and production throughput.
