From 25-26 April, Med-Tech Innovation Expo returns to the Ricoh Arena in Coventry to showcase the very best of the UK & Ireland’s medical technology sector.
A good medical device is only the sum of its parts. That’s why a variety of components manufacturers and suppliers will be on hand throughout the show to help solve medical device challenges.
One such firm is global supplier of stock OEM components, Qosina, which is returning to the expo for the fourth consecutive year.
Ken Wolcott, director of marketing and product development at Qosina, spoke about the importance of Med-Tech Innovation Expo as it “affords us the opportunity to meet with our customers in person.”
“We take full advantage of engaging with them to help us understand their unique market requirements and how we can better serve their needs as they respond to ever-evolving changes in the medtech industry.
“Stop by stand E8 and chat with our knowledgeable sales team about how Qosina can help you with your current or future project. You can also pick up a copy of our 2018 product catalogue, which features more than 150 new products.” Wolcott concluded.
Meanwhile, family-run business Mintdale Engineering will be showcasing its automated production services for the medical device industry at stand G29.
The company will be highlighting how it can produce components for a range of industries without the complex jigs and fixtures which can add to the cost and lead time.
And with over 40 years of experience specialising in the design and supply of fluid components to medical and scientific markets, West Group is returning to Med-Tech Innovation Expo once again.
Speaking about the show, Anita Netherton from West’s marketing department, said: “West is a loyal supporter of Med-Tech Innovation Expo which we have found it to be the perfect place to showcase new products and touch base with existing customers. Come and see us on stand F2.”
While newcomer to the show, Maxon Motors (stand E12), is “looking forward to showcasing Maxon medical products as well as meeting existing customers and developing new relationships” according to Matt Dean, sales engineer.
Supplier of pouches, lidding, rollstock, and mounting cards for the global healthcare industry, Oliver Healthcare Packaging (stand D43), says it is continuing an exciting 2018 with the show in April.
Anneke Willems, customer care representative at the firm, said: “2018 is already off to an exciting start for Oliver Healthcare Packaging, and we have a lot to share with you. Visit our team at stand D43 to learn more about our new technology centre, unique educational opportunities, and the latest in sterile barrier packaging.”
Manufacturer and developer of complex serial parts in steel and high-grade alloys, Parmaco Metal Injection Mouding AG, will be displaying its products over on stand C39. Since 1992, Parmaco has developed its products for the medical, automotive and many other industries.
Meanwhile Carville (stand G4) will be showcasing its range of high accuracy diffusion bonded fluidic manifolds at the expo. Used widely in medical, life sciences and industrial applications, these products can reportedly help reduce manufacturing costs, assembly time and servicing requirements by incorporating system complexity into a single component.
And Craig Thompson, commercial manager of component and finished product manufacturer Penlon, says the event is an important one for showcasing its products: “Med-Tech Innovation is the ideal opportunity for us to meet companies looking for the reassurance of working with an established UK partner. Penlon has 75 years of experience manufacturing medical devices and an in-depth understanding of the sector, including the regulatory requirements. You will find us on stand C44 and we look forward to seeing you at the Ricoh Arena.”
