MES for Medical Device Manufacturing

COMPLIANCE AT THE
SPEED OF PRODUCTION.

Capture every cycle, setup, stoppage, and scrap event automatically. Recover capacity, reduce scrap, understand true cost per part, and build a complete production record as every part is made.

MEDICAL DEVICE MANUFACTURERS RUNNING ON MACHINEMETRICS
THE PROBLEM

YOU CAN’T PROVE QUALITY WITHOUT TRACEABILITY.

High mix, small lots, inspections, and documentation add complexity to every run. When production data is incomplete or outdated, traceability gaps grow, quality issues take longer to contain, and compliance becomes harder to prove. 

QUALITY SHOULDN’T
COST YOU CAPACITY.

SYSTEMS THAT ONLY KNOW WHAT WAS TYPED

The hours you lose are the ones nobody logs. Inspection waits, extended setups, and idle machines disappear from operator entered systems, which is why those losses persist.

COMPLIANCE TREATED AS A FORMS PROBLEM

More screens and required fields add work instead of removing it. Documentation should come from automatic capture, not become another manual task for operators.

A SECOND SYSTEM OF RECORD

Anything that competes with ERP creates duplicate records, reconciliation work, and more validation with every release. In a controlled environment, that means longer qualification cycles.

SHIP FASTER.
STAY COMPLIANT.

One platform to schedule the work, guide every setup, clear the inspection gate, and capture the record from the machine itself.

SEE WHERE YOUR MACHINE HOURS GO.

Capture every stoppage, setup, and idle minute automatically. Rank losses by production value, measure setup against plan, and calculate OEE from actual machine data to recover capacity before adding equipment.

Downtime Hero

KEEP MACHINES FROM WAITING ON INSPECTION.

Alert quality as soon as a first article is ready, with inspection status visible at the machine. Approvals release production immediately, while rejections route for resolution. Digital communication can cut first article turnaround time by 50% or more.

TOP TOOL WEAR BEFORE IT BECOMES SCRAP.

Detect tool wear, chipping, and breakage from real time load behavior. Track remaining tool life, catch condition drift early, and hold feed when needed to protect high value parts and the machining time already invested.

COST EVERY PART FROM ACTUAL PRODUCTION.

Cost every part using actual labor, machine time, setup, inspection, and finishing. Know what each operation really costs so you can quote more accurately, schedule with confidence, and protect margins with real production data.

Quote against proven capacity

Quote and plan from proven cycle and setup times. Compare demand against real capacity, track schedule attainment live, and flag at risk jobs early so you can take on new programs with confidence.

MAKE THE AUDIT TRAIL AUTOMATIC

Tie every part automatically to its work order, machine, operator, shift, and production conditions. Capture authenticated actions, send verified labor and quantities to ERP, and maintain a complete traceable record without adding data entry work.

See It In Action

The first article gate and the shift handover are where high-mix medical work quietly loses hours: a machine finished and waiting, an inspector who does not know the part is ready, and knowledge that leaves at the end of a shift. THE MACHINE SAT IDLE BECAUSE NOBODY KNEW.

TESTIMONIALS

HOURS RECOVERED. PARTS SAVED. RECORDS THAT HELD.

High mix, tight tolerances, an inspection gate on every setup, and a record that has to stand up years after the part shipped.

ONE PILOT PAID FOR ALL OF IT.

With the ROI of a three-month pilot at one facility, we were able to pay for the deployment of MachineMetrics across the entire company. 

- Matt Townsend, Director of Operational Excellence

OEE went from 57% to 85%, with good parts rising from roughly 4,200 to more than 10,000 in five months.

OEE 25% TO 80%.

OEE averaged 25 to 30% and was calculated on paper. Within five weeks it reached 44%, and it now routinely hits 80% weekly. Setup went from roughly six hours to ninety minutes.

24 HOURS A DAY OF PAPERWORK, GONE.

Operators spent 22.5 hours a day filling out hour-by-hour sheets and area leads another 90 minutes every morning compiling them. All 24 hours went away, and utilization rose from 28% to 47%.
