TEMPE, Ariz., July 26 /PRNewswire/ — Harco Metal
Products (Harco), an industry leader in tube fabrication, systems
integration, and seamless, cost effective manufacturing, announced
today the contract to manufacture MediGLIDER™ products for
ConMediSys.
ConMediSys, the developer of safety products for health care
facilities, created the MediGLIDER™ to address the growing
risk and cost associated with staff injuries caused by physically
lifting and moving patients. The MediGLIDER™ is a gurney with
a built-in conveyor belt that allows one person to move a patient
from one location to another without physically lifting them. Harco
Metal Products manufactures the chrome side rails that keep the
patient on the MediGLIDER™ during patient transport, along
with the chrome end rails used for structural support to maintain
the mechanical integrity of the unit.
Harco Metal Products, Inc. was first approached to assist with
developing the product in 2009. The development team faced
issues regarding weight versus strength, design functionality and a
cost-effective method to produce a high quality bright polished
finish for the final assembly.
“Servicing the medical industry is a natural progression in
Harco’s business model,” says Harco President Jay Hall. “This project not only
demonstrates our immense capability to produce parts of any kind
for any industry, but it solidifies Harco’s reputation as a
producer of accurate, safe, and reliable metal parts.”
