Medtech Contract Manufacturing by SHL Healthcare. RF Welding Machine.

RF/HF Welding

  • 29 RF welding machines, ranging from 3-35 Kw.
  • Shuttle table, step weld and cut & weld.
  • Output of approximately 1.100+ welds per shift.
  • In-house tool production capabilities, with sizes up to 2.2m x 0.6m.

Applying years of industry experience and knowledge to a range of RF welding machines ranging from 3-35W, we are able to optimize welding production lines and output high quality products.

Conventional
& CNC Sewing

  • Extensive sewing manufacturing capabilities & experience.
  • 100+ top-of-the-line programmable sewing machines.
  • Continuous investment in new machines.

We provide a wide selection of highly efficient industrial-grade sewing equipment to meet customer specifications. Each machine is equipped with unique sewing capabilities to offer various stitching methods. With several sewing lines operating throughout the day, SHL Healthcare provides global customers with flexible and high-quality sewing solutions that increase their competitive edge.

CNC Fabric Cutting

  • High-quality cutting machines.
  • Automatic fabric spreading and digital cutting.
  • High precision and accuracy cutting.

By leveraging the benefits of CNC fabric cutting, we can cut several layers of fabric to fit precisely with customer-specified digital patterns.

The Vector 2500

The Vector 2500 can cut a single-layer as accurately as 1 “(25mm) of compressed fabric and assures flexibility and quality for the cutting of solid or print fabrics. This means that we can produce products with tight tolerances and offer multiple finishing options. In addition, by ensuring high precision and accuracy, we are able to optimize fabric utilization.

Screen Printing

We provide advanced printing capabilities that tackles challenging printing projects, such as those that require printing on unusual surfaces, or those that require highly detailed and accurate graphic reproductions, 3D surface imprints, custom colour specifications and more.

Assembly

In addition to our range of manufacturing capabilities for MedTech products, SHL Healthcare offers assembly services for customers that have such needs. Our factory employees can apply their years of accumulated experience in this area to ensure consistent and quality assembeld end-products.

Product Testing

  • Strictly Supervised Product Performance Verification.
  • Interface Pressure Mapping Capabilities.
  • Close Relationship With 3rd Party Testing.
  • Stretch & Laundry Testing.
  • Maximum Load, Ageing, Leak, Durability, Burst, Tensile Strength, Fatigue.

We have developed a range of comprehensive in-house testing capabilities required mattresses, control units, slings and various medical soft goods products.

For example, we are compliant with the sling test according to the new ISO 10535:2021 standard.
