Medical equipment is
one sector where compromises should and can never be made. The life and death
of a person may depend on proper functioning of medical equipment. It is very
important for medical equipment to be properly made in a sterilized setting. There
are two types of assembly which are very popular when it comes to medical
equipment. There are medical sub assembly and medical cable assembly. A sub
assembly is an assembled unit that has been designed in order to be
incorporated with different other units to make a finished product. A cable
assembly on the other hand is an assembly of cables which can are used to
transmit signals or electrical power. This type of assembly is also commonly
called cable harness or wiring loom or wiring assembly. Each of these types has
its own advantages and disadvantages. Hence it is important to understand the
difference between the two before you can make an informed and correct decision
about which type of assembly to opt for in which situation.
Decrease
cost and save time with sub assemblies
With a medical sub
assembly you can reap different benefits. Since in this type of assembly
the equipment is pre made so that it can easily be fit together it takes very
little time to assemble the final product. This can help save time. It is also
fairly easy to assemble and if you ever face problems or if a part becomes
loose or comes undone it might be possible for you to fix it yourself without
any problems. Sometimes in the case of cable assemblies you might buy the
component cables or wires only to find that they do not fit properly or are not
the right ones. Then you need to waste time and money replacing the bought
product and finding the right part. But with a sub assembly you will never face
such problems as all the parts are made to perfectly fit together. The risk of
improper assembly is minimized and almost eliminated in sub assemblies.
Get
enhanced reliability with cable assemblies
The greatest benefit
which a cable assembly can provide is that it can be specialized to meet your
specific needs. Sub assemblies have parts that have already been manufactured
before assembly and which can fit only in a particular way. With cable
assemblies the assembly can be made and changed in any way you want. Hence it
can provide optimum solutions to you. Moreover cable assemblies are generally
the most reliable options. The harnesses in cable assemblies are made in a way
that minimizes the risks of shorts or accidents. Thus the risk of electrical
fires is drastically lowered. These structures are generally sturdier since
they are bound tightly together and made from sturdy parts. Thus it is
important to consider the different pros and cons that each type of medical
assembly brings to the table and ultimately carefully choose the type of
assembly that is best and safest for you or your patients.
