Tekniker will participate in the “Deep Dive Seminars on Digital Health and Medical Devices”

The Basque Digital Innovation HUB has set up a public-private collaborative network made up of universities, technology centres and business R&D units to enable these agents to showcase their scientific-technological capabilities and assets (for instance, infrastructures, laboratories, equipment and software) and reach out to the industrial fabric.

More specifically, and in order to share and disclose these technological assets, several “Deep Dive” seminars will be held in the course of which companies, mainly SMEs, will enjoy a first-hand opportunity of learning more about the different technological assets and agents that form part of BDIH to find solutions and overcome their problems.

Real-time demonstrations will be carried out with a number of assets during these seminars and real cases will be presented to show how these assets have been used to incorporate technological solutions to a number of products and processes.

The Pre-compliance testing lab

It is within this context that, Tekniker will present its so-called “Pre-compliance testing lab” technological asset that offers the comprehensive design of healthcare products, according to specific regulations applicable to medical devices (ISO 13485, IEC62304, IEC 60601, ISO 14971, UL2900) including hardware, software and communications. It also has pre-compliance testing capabilities according to IEC 60601 and accreditation support is provided by certified laboratories for industrialisation.

This asset features equipment and components such as a climatic chamber in which environmental temperature and humidity conditions can be simulated to ensure that all the electronic equipment designed can operate in different environments.

The asset is also supported by a test bench that simulates a range of vibration conditions and partially reproduces fall or impact conditions to ascertain the degree of robustness of a given design.

Electromagnetic compatibility tests are fundamental in the assets as they allow a number of needs to be met in terms of developing medical devices electronically with digital processing in addition to integrating operating and communication systems.
