Production system for POC rapid tests

MA micro automation has developed a highly flexible production system for the manufacturing of Point-of-Care (POC) rapid diagnostic tests. The system can be used to produce multiple product configurations. Development of these systems considered the entire process chain, from plastic molding to QC testing and packaging.
