Success Stories in Medical Innovation

CASE STUDY

Plastic to MIM Conversion

The Challenge:

Medication cart lock components were failing to meet strength and security requirements, making them vulnerable to "low-tech" lock disabling techniques. The existing plastic injection-molded parts lacked the necessary durability for secure medical applications.

The Solution:

Using MPP’s Conversioneering® process, the lock components were redesigned with MIM-316L, an alloy known for high strength, corrosion resistance, and non-magnetic properties. This transition enhanced durability while keeping weight minimal, and tooling concepts remained identical to the original design—allowing for seamless integration into the existing system.
