This video from Hanmi Automatic Machinery demonstrates the operation of the Insulin Syringe Assembly Machine, a high-speed automated system used to assemble various parts of medical syringes.
Video Summary:
The video demonstrates the automated insulin syringe assembly and manufacturing process. The machine assembles the plastic parts (barrel) and the rubber parts/plungers:
Syringe Barrel Feeding and Alignment:
The plastic syringe barrel (the main part of the syringe) is fed vertically into the machine. [00:00:00 - 00:00:20]
Piston/Pressure Rod Feeding and Alignment (Plunger/Piston Rod):
The plunger rod, usually a long plastic rod, is fed and aligned along the inlet of the machine. [00:00:21 - 00:00:40]
Assembling the rubber stopper/gasket to the plunger:
The rubber stopper or gasket, which creates pressure in the syringe, is automatically and precisely fed into the plunger end. [00:00:41 - 00:01:00]
Final Assembly:
The plunger rod, with the rubber plunger attached, is quickly and continuously inserted into the syringe. [00:01:01 - 00:01:30]
Transportation and Packaging (Output/Packaging):
Completed insulin syringes are transported from the production line to the next step of sterilization and packaging. [00:01:31 - 00:02:37]
This system is an example of automation in the medical device manufacturing industry, which requires cleanliness, precision, and high speed in the production of delicate parts.
