Freudenberg Medical offers customers configurable automation solutions that can minimize time to market for newly developed medical devices while ensuring the highest quality standards.

Supporting Innovation
in a Regulated Environment

The medical device industry faces strict regulatory requirements and complex approval processes that demand precision and traceability. Automation plays a critical role in meeting these demands by minimizing human error and enabling the production and assembly of high-precision components that would otherwise be difficult to manufacture manually. This makes it possible to support innovation in product design and deliver high-quality components for even the most technically demanding devices.

At Freudenberg Medical, we’ve established a Center of Excellence for Automation and Robotics to encourage collaboration and share best practices across our global network. This initiative helps us develop thoughtful automation solutions that are shaped by both internal expertise and close partnerships with our customers. Whether supporting a single step in the process or a more comprehensive automation approach, we aim to find practical, effective ways to enhance efficiency, precision, and scalability, always keeping your project goals in focus.
