Druck的客户是世界上最大的医疗器械公司之一，制造各种产品，以满足全球医疗保健专业人士和患者的需求。该公司在输尿管镜技术开发方面具有特定的专业知识，该技术通常用于治疗肾结石。
在去除肾脏的过程中，使用输尿管检查到输尿管内部和肾脏。
从历史上看，诸如这些的范围已经昂贵，这已经导致它们在多次上使用它们，并且在过程期间在使用过程中被重新消毒以便重新使用。
However, the current industry trend is to move to ‘single use’ devices where a scope is used once and then disposed of. This is driven by recent biomedical studies suggesting that sterilization, while sufficient to meet hygiene standards, is no substitute for using new devices on each occasion to avoid risk of contamination.
Providing a ‘single use’ device presents manufacturers with several challenges. While ‘single use’ devices are beneficial to patients in reducing risks of infection from contaminated devices, there is a prevalent challenge to significantly reduce costs of the probe for it to make economic sense for the customers of those producing biomedical devices.
摘要h advancements in technology and a redesign of their products, Druck’s customer has been successful in significantly reducing the costs of these types of devices. There are further costs associated with ‘multi-use’ biomedical devices. Some of these associated costs include repair and component replacement costs, as well as employment costs for personnel to take care of the cleaning and sterilisation processes.
The combined benefits of reduced risk of infection for the patient and reduced cost of a single use product has put Druck’s Customer in a very good position to respond to this trend in the biomedical device market.
“单一使用”生物医学设备的趋势显着增加了制造商需要生产的设备的数量，该设备也必须维持产品质量和控制制造成本。在单一使用输尿管镜中，尖端具有视频馈送，LED光源和压力传感器。在去除肾结石的程序期间，压力传感器的重要性最重要，因为它使医疗保健专业能够监测患者的肾脏压力。
To ensure the pressure measurement data was reliable and large volumes of pressure sensors could be calibrated at the same time during their manufacturing process, the customer needed an accurate and fast calibration solution. The calibration solution would need to ensure the accuracy of the pressure sensors when used in their intended application so as not to risk the wellbeing of patients. Furthermore, the calibration solution was required to assure that production of a large volume of biomedical devices by the manufacturer was possible in order to keep pace with demand – where calibration was not a cause of excessive downtime during production of the customer’s products.
Given their familiarity with Druck and the PACE modular pressure controller, the customer was approached the Druck team to enquire if PACE could be used for this application.
喝酒’s PACE modular pressure controller provides a fast, flexible and economical solution to pressure control for automated production, test and calibration.

The test requirement for calibrating the pressure sensor within the probe requires simulating multiple pressure and temperature conditions in order to identify and correct for any errors in the pressure reading.
As Druck’s PACE pressure controller can control to a demand set-point at a greater speed than any other pressure controller available on the market (typically less than 5 seconds to set-point) the complete test profile of multiple pressure points can be performed in a very short period of time.
还有一个控制的刻面，因为在采取压力读数时需要稳定地保持设定点。速度的优异控制稳定性（0.001％FS）再次舒适地满足这一要求。
The performance specification that the pressure sensors used within the probe must meet is specified as a tight tolerance. The high performance of the PACE Control Module(0.0016% of Rdg + 0.0033% of FS) provides the customer with an accuracy ratio that provides a very high degree of confidence in the measurement.
预计，由于进一步预期的单位生产量的进一步增加，步伐控制器将每天使用。在苛刻的生产环境中验证可靠性和稳健性的多年，为客户提供了信心，以便他们将继续最大化其生产线上的“上班”。
