Scalable manufacturing solutions
for medical technology

Including applications in osteosynthesis, traumatology and orthopedics

From concept to scalable series production – safe, precise, scalable.

Schuler Medical is your integrated manufacturing partner for demanding implant manufactoring. We support you from the development phase with design-for-manufacturing expertise and implement validated series production with maximum process reliability.

Our highly automated machinery, certified processes and high-performance logistics enable short development cycles, cost-effective series production and reliable supply regionally and worldwide.

Our expertise and services – your benefits:

Concept development and prototyping

Our manufacturing specialists support you from the early development phase by designing your implants for manufacturability, with the aim of reducing costs, risks and development time and preparing stable series production.

  • Accelerated time-to-market through agile prototype manufacturing and design-for-manufacturing support
  • Manufacturing-oriented design: optimization of geometries, tolerances and materials early in development
  • Flexible, validated processes: prototypes produced under production-like, documented conditions
  • High manufacturing expertise already during the development phase

Precision manufacturing

With our state-of-the-art machinery, we deliver process-reliable and reproducible manufacturing of demanding implants.

  • Scalable series production through automated manufacturing concepts ensuring stable quality as demand grows
  • Highly automated CNC machining: turning and milling centres for complex geometries and tight tolerances
  • Standardized process chains for consistent quality and cost-effective manufacturing
  • Modular and reliable logistics solutions that adapt flexibly to demand, volumes and markets

Validation

We ensure that your manufacturing processes are stable, reproducible and compliant with regulatory requirements. We also provide reliable support for internal and external audits.

  • Qualification of machines, processes and manufacturing workflows
  • Integrated quality assurance: SPC monitoring and in-process measurement technology for continuous process control
  • Proof of process capability and stability through statistical methods and robust production KPIs

Documentation

Complete and traceable documentation is an integral part of all processes at Schuler Medical, from the prototype phase to serial supply.

  • Audit-ready documentation in accordance with ISO 13485 and FDA requirements
  • Seamless traceability of materials, processes and batches across the entire product life cycle
  • Digital process and quality data enabling consistent and reproducible documentation
