When manufacturing medical products, the stakes could not be higher. Failure to adhere
to strict thermal processing steps can have a tremendous impact on people’s lives.
Manufacturers trust Despatch ovens to deliver the uniform and repeatable thermal
processing needed for critical components to operate flawlessly and to ensure products
are free from contamination.
Despatch understands well the many possible customer applications and can offer custom
designs to accommodate many processes.
Medical Devices
For medical instrument manufacturers that need to apply polymer coatings to products
such as defibrillators, pacemakers, catheters and surgical staples, a Despatch
Industries forced convection oven with its tight temperature tolerances provides a
superior coating drying process. The result is greater productivity with lower cost.
Optical
Optical labs find Despatch ovens well suited for curing optical coatings needed for
scratch resistance and tinting. Ovens are available with pass-through doors for a
seamless process flow through the work cell. For curing contact lenses a nitrogen
atmosphere oven is used to prevent yellowing of the lenses.
Optical manufacturers depend on uniform internal temperatures, accurate ramp and soak
time and precise temperature controls.
Pharmaceutical
Despatch ovens are found in a wide variety of critical applications for the
pharmaceutical industry. From R&D to production, Despatch delivers consistent,
repeatable performance that adds up to shorter cycle times, higher productivity and
lower operating costs. Pharmaceutical compounders use Despatch LCC cleanroom ovens
to sterilize and depyrogenate implements, preparations and glassware.
