60-Year-Old Technology Reimagined In 6 Days
To Build COVID Ventilators

ճCOVID-19 pandemichas united countless individuals,communitiesand businessesin the fight to stop the proliferation of the virus.Businesses鶹ýӳԻ, have leveraged their屹Գengineering expertisetoԳܴڲٳܰcritical medicalܱ.

鶹ýӳ’s COVID Response //3D Print to Help Medical Community

Spiked Demand
Soon after the pandemictook hold,Air Logic was hit with an enormousincrease inorders for a specific ventilator componentthe diaphragm amplifier.They hadproduced the diaphragm amplifier since the 1960s,butdue to lowannualdemand,there was nobusinessreason to makeimprovements to the productdesign or theproductionԻassembly processesin decades.WhenCOVIDhit, everythingchanged.

Diaphragm Amplifiers

With only a matter of weeks to deliver on the increased demand for lifesaving ventilator components, Air Logic reached out to their suppliers– specifically 鶹ýӳ –to ask them to step up in a big way.

“I first talked to 鶹ýӳ on a Tuesday and I had a metal fixture in-hand on Saturday. You’tbeat execution like that! I look forward to the next project I get to work with them on,” saysJohnHayden, Air Logic Marketing Manager.

Diaphragm amplifiers function much like a transistor in an electrical circuit. They amplify very low pressure to signal a much higher pressure. This featuredoesan excellentjob ofdetecting pressure changes in a patient’s circuit on a ventilator.Medical products undergo additional levels of testing and certificationswhichrequirelonger product development cycles.There simplyɲ’ttime to execute a traditional manufacturing product development cyclewhich can take months to over a year to gofromconcept to production.Air Logic knew they needed todramatically altertheirproductionprocess to meetthis new COVID-drivendemand.

鶹ýӳTransformsAir Logic’s Product Development
Typically, the team at Air Logic can handle most engineering, design,fabricationand production needs in-house. However,theirresourceswere alreadystrappedfulfilling other orderswhilestillmaintaining safe operations. Haydenreached out to theadditiveexperts at 鶹ýӳto bridge this critical gap.

Diaphragm Amplifier Fixtures

鶹ýӳ delivered some serious value to usthis year during our ramp up and COVID-19 response,” states Hayden.

鶹ýӳ immediately took up the calland started workingcollaborativelywith Air Logictodetermine a way to combine two of the assembly processes into one. Reducingthe number of assembly stepswould eliminate double handing,reworkand reduce production time.Hayden provided theinitialidea which the team at 鶹ýӳ took from concept to physical tooling in just days.

By focusing on how a product should function rather than how’smade, companies can drive greater innovation and push the limits of manufacturing.鶹ýӳ promotes an “outside-in” approachfor manufacturingwhethertraditionally, additively or ahybridized approach.

The first fixture, printed withanAluminum Alloy,got Air Logic started,but they soon realized theyneeded to make some improvements. 鶹ýӳ updated the design and materialbased on their learnings.

The next two fixtures wereprinted usingStainless Steelwhich dramatically improved assembly and testing time.Theserevisedfixtures have held up to the wear and tear of over 50,000 operationsto date.

 

John Hayden, Marketing Manager for Air Logic, explains how 鶹ýӳ helped transform a decades-old technology in just days to answer a dramatic increase in product demand driven by COVID medical needs.

Working with 鶹ýӳ provides immediate and comprehensive access to the most relevant equipment and experience in advanced manufacturing,engineeringand prototyping.鶹ýӳsimply bringsit all together. We boldly make the investments in our business and leverage our expertise to problem solve and deliver high-efficiency outcomes every time for our customers.

Special thanks toJohn Hayden, Marketing Manager,ԻMara Alvarez, Marketing Assistantat AirLogicand the entire 鶹ýӳ team.
