Kistler and ATS Life Sciences Systems join forces for high-speed medical device assembly line

Kistler Group, an expert in dynamic measurement technology, and ATS Life Sciences Systems (LSS), an industry-leading automation solutions provider, have joined forces for state-of-the-art medical device assembly line.

 

Combining advanced sensor technology from Kistler with a patented digital motion system from ATS LSS, Symphoni platform delivers real-time in-line quality assurance for medical devices, up to 320 parts per minute with 90% less tooling and full traceability.

Symphoni is with novel electronic cam software that optimizes motion of Rapid Speed Matching technologies, achieving faster throughput without compromising on quality.

 

The platform sets a new benchmark for scalable, data-driven automation in medical device manufacturing, supporting regulatory-compliant production, audit-ready data, and flexible handling of multiple product types on a single line.

 

Challenges to produce flawless medical devices

 

In many conventional assembly processes for medical devices, quality assurance limited to pre- and post-assembly inspections. They consume valuable floor space and require numerous specialized tools. Beyond operational inefficiencies, they affect regulatory compliance, yield, and scalability.

 

To meet stringent standards such as FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and EU MDR, manufacturers must demonstrate consistent product quality providing fully traceable and audit-ready process data. Optimized layouts and minimal downtime are also key factors.

 

Innovation in high-speed medical device assembly

 

To address these challenges, ATS LSS and Kistler Group collaborated for an automated assembly line that makes previously invisible aspects of production measurable and controllable.

 

The system integrates ATS LSS’ expertise in digitally synchronous motion and modular automation with real-time force and displacement sensing from Kistler, enabling assembly and in-line verification of medical devices at speeds exceeding 300 parts per minute and the flexibility to handle multiple product types on a single line.

 

These improvements reduce overall cycle time from 3750 ms to 750 ms, delivering rapid, precise, and traceable inline process monitoring.

 

Real-time data support: From assumptions to assurance

 

At the same time, the real-time force and displacement monitoring from Kistler allows Symphoni to measure and verify critical steps of medical device assembly as it happens. In-line waveform analysis detects potential failure modes, while a patent-pending inertia compensation system neutralizes the effects of high-speed motion on force measurements.

 

These capabilities enable precise evaluation of force and distance, reducing false positives and negatives and eliminating the need for separate inspection stations. All collected real-time data can be stored across multiple databases, supporting process optimization, regulatory compliance, and rapid ramp-up of new production lines.
