일본 의료기기 제조업체가 Dongfeng의 MGN12 P2 등급 가이드와 SFU1204 정밀 연삭 볼스크류를 사용하여 1.8미크론 위치 반복 정밀도를 달성하고 불량률을 4%에서 0.3%로 낮췄습니다.
Customer Challenge
A medical device manufacturer in Japan required ultra-precision linear motion components for an automated insulin pump assembly station. The station needed positioning repeatability within 2 microns to place micro-valves with sub-millimeter tolerances. The previous linear guide system could not maintain repeatability after thermal expansion cycles, causing a 4% rejection rate in the final product inspection.
Dongfeng Solution
Dongfeng supplied MGN12 miniature linear guides in P2 accuracy class paired with SFU1204 ground ball screws featuring 4mm lead for fine positioning resolution. Both components were manufactured in stainless steel 440C for corrosion resistance and biocompatibility compliance. Each set was individually tested for positioning repeatability using laser interferometry, with test certificates documenting sub-2-micron repeatability at 22°C and 28°C.
Results & Valuealue
The MGN12 + SFU1204 combination achieved 1.8-micron positioning repeatability, exceeding the 2-micron target. Thermal stability testing across 5 temperature cycles showed no repeatability drift. The product rejection rate dropped from 4% to 0.3%, saving the customer an estimated $180,000 per year in scrapped components. The customer expanded the solution to 2 additional assembly stations.
