Quality is often misunderstood. More specifically, the benefits of a well implemented quality management system (QMS) are not universally known and appreciated, and that can cost lives. Conversely, when executives and manufacturing personnel understand the benefits of a QMS, patient outcomes improve, the quality of life is enhanced, and manufacturers prosper.

All health care-related fields are growing, and the same is true for applications that test medical instruments and materials.

Computed tomography (CT) scanning is one of the most advanced measurement technologies available today for medical device manufacturers and molders. 

Medical device manufacturing poses unique challenges for maintaining quality and consistency. Medical devices must be built to exacting standards and their failure is simply not an option.

Inspecting medical parts such as orthopedic implants and medical instruments pose a number of arduous challenges to manufacturers. 

FDA regulated companies must establish quality systems for compliance. Most quality management systems (QMS) were developed to help comply with regulations with a sole focus on automating the paper-based processes around quality.

It is well known in the medical device industry that the success of a company is driven by its ability to bring innovative, cost-effective products to market quickly.
