Injection systems Diagnostic devices Contact lenses Infusion products

INHALERS Ageing population and record levels of air pollution are high-risk factors for the development of conditions such as Asthma and COPD. Medical research aims to tackle this issue, commercializing new high-tech solutions that can considerably improve patients’ quality of life. While Metered-Dose Inhalers are widely popular and frequently used, Dry-Powder Inhalers are a less known and more complex subject. Both of these, together with dose counters, are at the center of our quest for the perfect medical device platform. IMA Automation’s expertise ranges from pre-assembly phases to the product’s...

MDI Our Metered-Dose Inhater assembly solutions are available for both plastic and metal parts; including springs and the final assembly inclusive of aluminum canister. Our Dry Powder Inhaler line ensures the best design and performances, thanks to the platforms' workflow inclusive of powder dosing, capping, up-to-vision packaging, orientation and welding. Dose Counter assembly is also part of our offer thanks to our reliable equipment, also providing dial printing, arming and functional checks.

INJECTION SYSTEMS Injection systems allow for drugs to be effortlessly injected or even selfinjected; it’s a precise and effective way to administrate medications. There are many treatments that can benefit from the use of injection systems other than diabetes care, especially when dealing with biosimilar products. INJECTION SYSTEM ASSEMBLY IMA Automation is deeply experienced in the assembly of pens and auto-injectors: from automatic denesting systems for pre-filled syringes to dosing mechanisms, in addition to power-pack assembly and final product assembly including drug manipulation. Turnkey...
