OGP and SYS Systems to show at Med-Tech Innovation Expo 2020

1 min read

SYS Systems and OGP UK – both part of the Carfulan Group – will be exhibiting at the Med-Tech Innovation Expo 2020 on 1-2 April at Birmingham’s NEC.

OGP UK specialises in multi-sensor metrology systems which can gauge the characteristics of even complex parts in real time and without human error, leading to better quality and reduced scrap, says the company. Applications examples in the medical arena have seen OGP UK develop processes that ensure exact drug dosage is dispensed from asthma inhalers made by multi-national pharmaceutical companies like GlaxoSmithKline. The company has also been involved with improving quality control processes and driving up productivity for medical injection moulding customers.

OGP UK will be displaying its CNC200 at Med-Tech, a machine capable of supporting a combination of touch probes, micro probes and laser scanners, maintaining accuracy while working even in hostile production environments.

As a UK Stratasys platinum partner, SYS Systems says it has been at the forefront of the 3D-printing movement for more than a decade. The company’s solutions have helped doctors to print surgical guides, models and prostheses to improve outcomes for patients, support pioneering reconstruction surgery, and shorten product development times by enabling prototypes to be made quickly, easily and accurately in a range of high quality and lifelike materials.

SYS Systems will be bringing along the Objet350 Connex3, which was reportedly the first system in the world to simultaneously 3D-print multiple colours and materials. The machine’s flexibility allows users to create models with the look, feel and properties of real production parts, as well as quickly and easily print off custom jigs, assembly fixtures and tooling with ultra-fine accuracy, says SYS Systems. Intuitive GrabCAD software makes achieving high-quality builds simple, with no need for post-processing.

OGP UK and SYS Systems will occupy Stand F59 at Med-Tech.
