THE PROBLEM

When it comes to medical implants, only ‘first time right’ components will suffice, and they are often required with very short lead-times.

THE SOLUTION

Texmo’s unique process optimisation techniques combined with engineering experience helped zero down on the key process steps and parameters to be used for the manufacture of this component.

We were able to simulate the casting process
and run confirmation trials within one week to prove dimensional capability. In parallel, hard tooling was built in two weeks allowing production samples to be cast within one week thereafter, achieving dimensions and quality requirements first-time-right.

THE IMPACT

This helped our customer take their designs into validation within three weeks of placing orders within Texmo, whilst the standard industry lead times are 5x longer.
