Live Sciences
Manufacturing for the Live Sciences industries—encompassing pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and medical devices—demands exceptional precision, cleanliness, and regulatory compliance. Advanced manufacturing processes such as laser cutting, CNC machining and laser welding are used to create high-precision components for lab equipment, enclosures, and sterile environments.
Press brakes form components with exact tolerances required for cleanroom and containment applications. Surface treatments such as pickle & passivation are required to enhance anti-corrosion properties, and produce contaminant free surfaces. These technologies support the strict quality and safety standards essential in Live Sciences, ensuring reliable performance in critical applications.
The live sciences industry requires precision, hygiene-compatible materials and reliable surface finishes for laboratory equipment, medical housings, analytical devices and environmental control systems. ABTS supports medical, biotech and laboratory OEMs with high-quality fabrication, machining and powder coating services suited to controlled environments.
We work extensively with stainless steel and high-grade aluminium, producing laboratory housings, equipment frames, mounting structures and precision-machined components. Using our 4kW fibre laser, we manufacture highly accurate profiles, clean edges and fine detail suitable for medical device assemblies and testing equipment.
Our CNC forming, coded welding and mechanical assembly ensure high dimensional accuracy, essential for enclosures, doors, access systems and engineered laboratory components.
