Improve Cost Containment, Product Performance with a Custom Bearing National Bearings Company Helps Medical OEMs Avoid Costly Mistakes with Pre-production Tip Sheet, Web Page and Case Study


Lancaster – Thanks to National Bearings, medical device designers have a new place to turn for help in specifying the right bearing for their products. The Medical Device Design page on the National Bearings website offers new resources for medical OEMs, including a Bearing Selection Tip Sheet which identifies considerations that many medical device designers inadvertently overlook when specifying a bearing for their projects. In addition, the Medical Device Assembly Case Study gives medical device designers a close-up look at a quality bearing solution in action. “We realize medical device engineers need to be innovative, while also working within a stringent regulatory environment,” stated Mark Bos, Vice President, at National Bearings Company. “For this reason, we’ve designed these resources to help add value, surpass standards, and reduce costs wherever possible.”



The medical device design page, informative bearing selection tip sheet, and medical device assembly case study are being made available to help designers make important decisions regarding the bearings in their designs. Standard bearings might not be the best choice for designs that need to meet the rigorous quality control standards of the medical world. National Bearings has the information medical device designers need to stay ahead in this fast-paced, ever-changing industry. “Through these new resources,” Bos explained, “we plan to assist medical design engineers in specifying the right bearing for their application, while improving cost containment and supporting innovation in design.”



Medical device designers are encouraged to visit the Medical Device Design page or download the Bearing Selection Tip Sheet before starting a project. Or view the Medical Device Assembly Case Study for an example of how a quality bearing solution can make all the difference.
