Medical Device Design and Production: Using Data to Advance the State of the Art

Manufacturing today is about more than just making things. Whether it’s aspirin or aircraft carriers, Band-Aids or bridges, all manufactured goods are imbued with data. That data represents a high-value information stream that runs parallel to the entire production process, from raw materials receiving to performance monitoring in the customer’s hands. Turning that information into actionable insight is the key to productive and profitable manufacturing, and in industries where products are safety critical, and are highly regulated, like medical devices, there is more at stake than just money.
