Achieving Compatibility in Medical Blister Trays to Reduce Mold Costs

When dealing with a wide range of product models and specifications, custom medical blister trays often require multiple molds, leading to high upfront costs. Let’s take a bone membrane or biological membrane product as an example to demonstrate how to reduce the number of molds and lower initial investment.

For many membrane products with varying sizes and shapes, consider designing the blister tray mold based on the largest product size. Alternatively, customize the inner cavity to fit the product shape while standardizing the outer dimensions of the blister tray. This approach not only allows compatibility across multiple products but also streamlines the use of thermoforming molds and lid materials, reducing both mold and material management costs.

Additionally, this method simplifies packaging validation, as fewer product variations require testing, saving time and effort. For products with numerous specifications and significant size variations, the number of molds can be determined based on demand volume to optimize unit costs.

We welcome engineers from medical device companies to discuss and explore these solutions further. Let us help you achieve cost-effective, compatible, and efficient medical blister tray designs.
