Case Study: Solving Precision & Compliance Challenges for a Leading U.S. Biomedical Manufacturer with Custom Made Dowel Pin Solution


Problem
The problem faced by a major US based biomedical company was finding USA made stainless steel dowel pins for their new medical device. The standard length of 1/2 inch was not an issue, however, the non-standard diameter of .085 and special tolerances of +/-.0005 on both the diameter and length posed a challenge. With a limited budget of under $2500, the customer needed a few thousand pieces and required full material certification, manufacturer's lab test report, heat treat certifications, and a signed MFG certificate of conformance. Despite searching for weeks within their existing supply chain, the company was unable to find a manufacturer in the USA who could meet their requirements within their budget or delivery timeline. This called for a technical approach to solve the problem at hand.
