Outlook 2021: Medical sector drives demand for efficient systems

The huge demand for rubber and silicone moulded products for medical device components with the requirement in several industries such as automotive, electronics, motorcycle and sport equipment industries, have given impetus for machinery manufacturers to innovate. In the area of rubber and silicone injection moulding, Jing Day Machinery Industrial Co., Ltd. saw demand for rubber products escalating during the pandemic which also pushed requirements for customised production systems. “The requirements of today’s rubber manufacturers call for high level of customisation, in-depth knowledge in the manufacturing process to provide excellent solutions to the end users. Particularly, the recent needs for medical applications such as breathing masks and bags, nebulizers, medical membrane keypads, O-rings, prefilled syringes reveal the importance of skilled manufacturers in this field. Thus, there is a crucial need for LSR injection moulding machines which can process medical grade silicones,” according to Mr. Daniel Yang, Manager at Jing Day Machinery Industrial Co., Ltd (JING DAY). The company has been in the forefront of silicone and rubber injection moulding machine sector in Taiwan and its rubber and silicone processing machinery portfolio helps to create solutions not only for the medical equipment industry, but also for many industries like automotive, electronics, motorcycle parts and sports equipment in various parts of the world.

JING DAY also expects the Industry 4.0 and digitalisation trends to retain their importance among manufacturers in 2021 and beyond. “As we see sustained move towards achieving Industry 4.0 and digitalisation, JING DAY aims to meet these future trends by investing 30% of the mechanical production capacity on technology research and development in terms of Industry 4.0, in order for us to quickly respond to customers’ requirements for customised machinery for various industries, particularly the medical industry,” Mr. Yang shares.

JING DAY’s silicone rubber injection moulding machines and hydraulic moulding machines for the applications of various industries run in 60 different countries including Europe and America today, and market share is growing day by day. Since 80% of the production has been exported to the world, the custom design machines are mostly demanded among JING DAY’s customers. The regional markets and the industries JING DAY serves require high precision and stable production output.  HMI and PLC features come as machine standard. “Besides, customisable nozzle design helps customers to control material flow and achieve stable outputs. JING DAY’s machines are suitable for natural and synthetic rubber, oil-resistant rubber, heat resistant rubber, and reclaimed rubber. Moreover, the company can also help customers with upgrading old moulds to integrate JING DAY’s machines, which saves the customer 20% to 30% of the production and labour costs,” Mr. Yan explains. 

The company sees continued reliance on strategic customer support as the pandemic remains unabated. “Buying machinery especially during the outbreak is a sensitive process; international buyers have several concerns like the installation of the machinery, after-sales services, part and maintenance requirements. All of these are being addressed by JING DAY as we expect to meet customers’ concerns continuously through different ways to overcome the obstacles,” Mr. Yang says.
