Addressing Challenges in a Molding Tool Transfer Process—MPO Videobites
With the pandemic’s supply chain issues, many are considering moving molding, but are unsure of what may be involved with tool transfer.

Recent supply chain
difficulties have
led to medical
device manufacturers
reevaluating their
service provider
partners and where
they are located. As
such, some are
interested in moving
their molding needs
to a new facility or
even a new partner.
With this type of
change comes a
number of potential
challenges,
especially with the
transfer of the
tooling. What
challenges are most
relevant and what
should companies
keep top of mind?
To discuss how
Medbio views this
situation and how it
is handling a
transfer for its
medical device
manufacturing
customers, Ethan
Bruyn, manufacturing
technology leader at
Medbio,
spoke with
MPO in this
Videobites
interview.
