Swiss Medtech Expo 2019

On September 10. and 11., the third Swiss Medtech Expo took place in Lucerne.

Like two years ago, the Kunststoff Helmbrechts AG was able to present a wide range of technologies combined with an impressive in-house production depth. It was nice to meet many people from research and development and present and discuss the different technologies.

Besides the conventional 1-3K plastic components, a lot of visitors showed interest in the inmold-labeling technology (IML). This is not surprising since this technology provides almost unlimited opportunities regarding design and functionality. This includes for example “disappearing effects” to illustrate only these symbols that are needed in a situation to operate the device correctly. Like this the usability of a user-interface can be improved drastically. It also provides the option to integrate control panels with or without tactile feedback, gesture control or lighting effects. And all this is hermetically protected underneath a 3D-shaped polycarbonate foil.

Besides the presentation of the different technologies and parts at the booth, Dr. Vezzù presented on stage how the transition to “MDR” will be realized at KH Medical.

If you have any questions or comments, we look forward to hearing from you.
