Wearable Medical Device Components
Die-Cut Components for Stick-to-Skin Wearable Medical Devices
We collaborate closely with wearable medical device manufacturers to develop value-added stick-to-skin adhesive solutions using advanced medical-grade materials and adhesive tapes. By integrating design-for-manufacture principles from concept to delivery, we ensure optimised component performance with ongoing technical support. Our solutions enhance device comfort, durability, and performance while meeting stringent regulatory standards.
Components & Applications
Self-adhesive solutions for Medical Wearable Devices
Tecman provides all adhesive components for stick-to-skin wearable medical devices, whether bonding the device to the skin with proven long-term adhesion medical tapes or attaching it to the skin layer with high-strength, FDA-approved bonding tapes.
Additionally, our manufacturing system not only produces adhesive layers but also applies the device to these layers, performing 100% inspection at a rate of up to 250 parts per minute. This system can be installed on-site at our customers' premises, enabling complete in-house manufacturing control.
