Medical Shipping Containers: Protecting Devices

Friday, November 23rd, 2012

Shipping sensitive medical equipment – x-ray machines, computed tomography scanners, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) devices, analytical devices, medical dispensing machines, and the like – requires proper packaging and customized medical equipment cases to ensure thorough protection during transit.

No matter how medical equipment is transported from place to place – via ships, planes, or automobiles – it is going to be jostled, exposed to vibrations, and be at risk for rolling, and other possible means of damage. Equipment making its way overseas has to be safeguarded against elements in order to prevent corrosion, oxidation, and the infiltration of contaminates like dirt and dust. All of these hazards can negatively impact instrumentation, requiring expensive repairs that put equipment out of service for long periods of time.

Medical shipping containers provide a solution for comprehensive protection of medical equipment during transportation from manufacturers and suppliers to hospitals and clinics.

At Advanced Packaging, we offer a range of medical equipment cases that provide exceptional protection and convenient portability for all types of delicate medical devices and tools. Our certified packaging engineers design and manufacture precision foam inserts guaranteed to securely hold and protect the medical tools of your choice. We carry solutions for a wide range of medical devices, from spinal to orthopedic to dental surgery, even veterinarian – the options are unlimited!

CNC Form Presses and Custom Electronic Cases

Friday, October 5th, 2012

At Advanced Packaging, when fabricating our custom electronic cases, we use only the latest technology: CNC punch and form presses. This ensures that our containers are constructed with high quality precision sheet metal enclosures, component parts, and interface panels.

CNC simply stands for Computer Numerical Control, and describes computer programs that control the machine’s operational cycles. This type of press is utilized to punch out pre-registered forms from lightweight but strong stock material. The machine functions by placing the material to be punched under the press die – a customized cutting tool – on the machine, which then moves up and down to cut out the pre-programmed shape.

CNC punches are usually turret-type machines that have a table with brushes and rollers that help the sheet metal move through easily with a minimal amount of friction. They generally have three assemblies – the powered press turret, the work bed or table, and a control panel.

The automated operation of CNC punch presses is incredibly precise and has the capacity to cut out intricate shapes. They are efficient, too: punch cycles are measured in mere milliseconds. Using this type of cutting-edge technology is just one of the ways our engineers at Advanced Packaging are able to manufacture custom cases in less time than most other firms – and we do it all in-house, too, eliminating the headaches that middle men cause.

If you have any questions about our Custom Electronic Shipping Cases or CNC Punch Presses, please contact Advanced Packaging Inc. by calling 888-206-5250 or visit our website today!

Sustainable Shipping Cases from API

Friday, September 14th, 2012

It’s trendy to be eco-chic, carefully considering the environment in day-to-day actions and acting with a conscious towards the Earth. API’s aluminum shipping cases fit well with that current, reducing environmental impact by using a highly recyclable material.

Aluminum – used widely in many different applications today, from soda cans to window frames, brief cases, and airplanes – is easy to use, fabricate, and manipulate. It is lightweight, resistant to stress, holds up well under wear and tear, and defies rust. Inexpensive to make, aluminum can also be easily reused and transformed into different objects following recycling. Once it is melted, it turns into a new piece, ready to be molded into something different from its role in the previous form. Aluminum also doesn’t make use of petroleum in production, a nonrenewable resource.

API’s aluminum cases are a cost-effective option for protective containers and cases. Whether for military, medical, or industrial purposes – or something else entirely for that matter – aluminum cases are an environmentally friendly solution to packaging needs. They can be manufactured to meet any size, weight, or carrying capacity and can be finished in a variety of colors and textures to meet your aesthetic specifications.

If you have any questions about our Aluminum Shipping Cases, please contact Advanced Packaging Inc. by calling 888-206-5250 or visit our website today!

Visible logos will make your brand visible, and effectively communicate what kind of equipment is contained inside of your case.

A History of Durability, Part II: Injection Molding and Packaging Solutions

Tuesday, August 14th, 2012

Two weeks ago on API’s blog, we provided a rundown on the development and uses of rotational molding in A History of Durability: Rotational Molding and Packaging Solutions.  Here at Advanced Packaging, Inc. however, we aren’t limited with the type of custom fabricated carrying cases we provide: in addition to roto-molded cases, we also offer a line of injection molded transit cases.

Heavy duty, rugged, and waterproof, API’s injection molded cases are reliable compact solutions for all kinds of sensitive equipment.  Proven to deliver impact resistance even in low temperatures, injection molded cases are airtight, watertight, dent resistant, shatter resistant, lockable, and guaranteed to last a lifetime.

Injection molding is a manufacturing process that produces parts from both thermoplastic and thermosetting plastic materials.  The procedure involves feeding material into a heated barrel where it is mixed and then forced into a mold cavity to cool and take the shape of the cavity.  A mold is then made from metal, which is precision-machined in order to create the characteristics of the desired part – in API’s case, custom cases.

Though the process of molding plastics has been around since the mid-1800s, the plastic injection molding industry rapidly expanded with the onset of WWII, which increased the demand for inexpensive, mass-produced products necessary for the war effort.  Today, injection molding is used for anything from making bottle caps to automotive dashboards and of course, packaging.

If you have any questions about our Injection Molded Cases, please contact Advanced Packaging Inc. by calling 888-206-5250 or visit our website today!

Founded over 40 years ago, Advanced Packaging Inc. provides quality stock and custom container solutions for military, government, and commercial equipment manufacturers.
