OUR STORY

Revolutionizing Healthcare: A PEEPL Automations Success Story

At PEEPL Automation, we collaborated with one of our valued clients to address a pressing issue in the Indian healthcare market: the high cost and limited availability of surgical wound protectors. Most wound protectors available in India are imported, leading to inflated prices and making them less accessible for healthcare providers and patients. Together with our client, we embarked on a journey to develop an affordable, high-quality wound protector and the accompanying manufacturing technology, to disrupt the market with a cost-effective, locally made solution.

Problem Statement

Our client approached us with the challenge of addressing the rising cost of imported wound protectors in India. They needed a cost-effective solution that would not only match the quality of imported products but also make wound protectors more accessible to the local healthcare system. The objective was clear: to create a high-quality wound protector at a fraction of the cost and establish a local manufacturing process for efficient production.

The Development Journey

1. Concept Development

Our research and development team worked closely with the client to understand their specific requirements and the challenges faced in the market. Based on these inputs, we explored various materials and manufacturing techniques suitable for creating a medical-grade wound protector that meets all safety and performance standards while staying affordable. This collaborative approach enabled us to identify the most suitable materials and production methods early in the process.

2. Prototype Development

Using our frugal engineering techniques, we successfully transformed the initial concept into a working prototype. This phase was crucial in validating that our chosen materials and manufacturing techniques worked as intended. The prototype proved that our cost-effective methodologies could deliver a high-quality product without compromising on performance or durability. This phase gave both our client and us the confidence to move forward with full-scale development.

3. Final Machine Development

After validating the product prototype, our next step was to design and develop a highly optimized manufacturing machine that would allow our client to produce the wound protectors at scale. The machine was developed with advanced parameter settings and controls, ensuring consistent production quality, efficiency, and flexibility in manufacturing. This machine, tailored to our client’s specific needs, enables the seamless production of cost-effective wound protectors in large quantities while maintaining stringent quality control.

The Outcome

Through our collaboration with the client, we successfully developed an affordable, high-quality surgical wound protector along with a customized manufacturing machine that optimizes production processes. This innovative solution not only reduces costs but also empowers local manufacturing, reducing dependency on imported products. Our client is now well-positioned to provide the Indian healthcare market with a competitively priced, high-quality wound protector, improving accessibility and patient care.

National Recognition: A Product of Excellence

The revolutionary surgical wound protector soon gained recognition on a national level. The doctors, in collaboration with PEEPL Automations, were awarded the prestigious National Award for their product. Their creation had not only filled a critical gap in the Indian healthcare market but had also set new standards for quality and innovation in the medical field.
