Medical Device Manufacturing

Protect Precision. Prevent Scrap. Keep Every Line Consistent.

Medical device manufacturing demands precision. When machines drift even slightly, tolerances shift, finishes change, and entire batches fail inspection.

Why Medical Device Manufacturing Chooses Chladni

Your production lines must meet extremely tight tolerances. Chladni gives you predictive visibility into mechanical behavior that directly affects:

Dimensional Accuracy

Extrusion Uniformity

Surface Finish Quality

Molding Consistency

Robotic Assembly Alignment

Tool Stability

The Hidden Mechanical Issues That Kill Quality

In medical device facilities, almost all quality problems start as microscopic mechanical changes.

A spindle that begins vibrating

We use your vibration data to detect:

creates chatter marks on implants

Micro-instability

A misaligned extruder

We use your vibration data to detect:

causes wall-thickness variation in catheter tubing

Micro-instability

A worn bearing

We use your vibration data to detect:

introduces friction that damages surface finish

Micro-instability

A slightly unstable laser stage

We use your vibration data to detect:

reduces weld quality

Micro-instability

A drifting servo

We use your vibration data to detect:

affects assembly alignment

Micro-instability

How Chladni Works

Learn the Machine

The puck captures vibration and temperature continuously and learns the machine's normal behavior.

Spot the Smallest Drift

Our AI flags micro-changes that affect precision long before humans can detect them.

Understand the Root Cause

Physics-based rules identify patterns related to misalignment, tool imbalance, bearing wear, and chatter.

Predict Risk Levels

The system determines if the drift is mild, moderate, or urgent.

Tell Your Team What to Do

You receive clear guidance: what's happening, why it matters, and how to fix it.

Frequently Asked
Questions

Will installing Chladni require us to re-validate our equipment or file a new regulatory submission?

No.Chladni is designed as a Non-Invasive Overlay.

  • No PLC Contact: Our sensors are completely independent of your machine’s control logic. We do not write back to the PLC or alter process parameters.

  • No Re-Validation: Because the installation does not impact the validated state or control strategy of the equipment, it typically qualifies as a "monitoring-only" addition, requiring no re-validation or complex change control.

How is the hardware installed? Do we need to shut down the line? A: Installation is wireless, tool-free, and requires zero downtime.

Installation is wireless, tool-free, and requires zero downtime.

  • Wireless & Non-Invasive: Our sensors attach to the external chassis of your assets (motors, pumps, gearboxes) using industrial-grade adhesive.

  • Rapid Deployment: A single line can be outfitted in under a few hours without stopping production.

Are the sensors safe for Cleanroom and GMP environments?

Yes. Our pharma-grade sensor nodes are designed with smooth, non-shedding enclosures that are IP67/IP69K rated. They are resistant to standard cleaning agents (VHP, Isopropyl Alcohol) and do not introduce particulate risk into sterile environments.

Does this system comply with Data Integrity (ALCOA+)?

Absolutely. While Chladni operates as a monitoring layer, all data is encrypted end-to-end, time-stamped, and immutable. We provide full audit trails for every alert and user interaction, supporting your site’s 21 CFR Part 11 and Annex 11 compliance strategies.

Can we integrate this data into our existing e-Logbook or MES?

Yes. We don't want to create a data silo. Chladni offers an open API to feed machine health status directly into your existing MES (e.g., Werum PAS-X, Rockwell PharmaSuite) or Quality Management System, automating the "Maintenance Required" entry in your electronic logbooks.
