Isometric Companies: Over 30 Years of Micro Solutions

Isometric, News

Our History 35 Years of Micro Solutions Isometric's rich history begins with Founder Michael T. Hudalla, who formed Isometric Tool & Design in 1990. At that time, the Isometric vision was to manufacture tooling and provide manufacturing solutions to exacting specifications for ultra-small, ultra-precise, and ultra-complex applications. In 2009, a specific customer-driven need prompted the addition of a complimentary core competency in micro automated assembly systems. During this time, the Isometric team’s ambition toward manufacturing innovation helped develop what is now known as the ‘Process of Discovery’. Isometric's Process of Discovery has three main initiatives, which we still apply to every project: Discover Innovative Ideas by thinking beyond the norm with fresh, novel approaches that work. Integrate Statistical Processes to guarantee perfection using automated solutions. Eliminate Customer Concerns by anticipating…

Micro Ophthalmic Ocular Implants

Articles, Isometric

Micro Ophthalmic Ocular Implants Donna Bibber shares insight about micro ophthalmic ocular implants and the continued impact of micro mold manufacturing on worldwide growth in the next five years. Micro ophthalmic and intraocular implants continue to be one of the largest and fastest-growing global micro medical and pharma micro device market sectors. Driven by a baby boomer aging population, technology innovations, and vast, rapidly emerging markets in China and India, the ophthalmic devices sector is expected to attain a double-digit growth. Age-related eye diseases such as cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma and macular degeneration (to name only a few) continue to cause significant or complete loss of vision. Since ophthalmic and intraocular implants are largely made up of many micro-sized and highly precise components and assemblies, it's easy to understand the…

Micro Giants: Micromolding for Medtech

Articles, Isometric

Micro Giants: Micromolding for Medtech Medical Product Outsourcing article featuring Isometric Micro Molding, Inc. Micromolding for medtech is becoming serious business. The medical industry’s demands are continually challenging suppliers and manufacturers to stretch their technical competencies into areas where they may fear to tread. Doctors and surgeons urge instruments for less invasive procedures and quicker recovery times, devices are shrinking and becoming more complex, and designers seek out smaller, high-precision components with materials and tolerances that years ago were deemed impossible. To further advance minimally invasive device designs and reduce part sizes, manufacturers are turning to micromolding. By definition, micromolding is an injection molding process, but the manufactured components require magnification to view details on or within the part. It can also be defined as parts with sizes or tolerances…
