Designing a medical device or consumer product can take a long time. Designing an automated assembly system for those products shouldn’t add any more. Starting with a standardized assembly platform can reduce engineering time and get the product to market faster.
That’s the thinking behind a portfolio of standardized assembly platforms offered by IMA Automation. Headquartered near Bologna, Italy, IMA specializes in automated equipment for assembling caps and closures; medical and pharmaceutical products; ink cartridges and printheads; and automotive clutches. The company has offices and production facilities around the world, including Malaysia, China and Argentina. The company’s U.S. affiliate, IMA Automation North America, is located in Loves Park, IL.
