Delphon Puts Robots-as-a-Service to Work

Through its TouchMark business, Delphon (a Hayward, CA-based manufacturer) provides high quality, precision pad printing services to the medical device and electronics industries. Pad printing is a printing process that can transfer a 2D image onto a 3D object. The company’s cleanroom manufacturing facility enables it to handle prototypes ranging from small clinical trials and engineering lots to large production volumes. Like most manufacturers today, Delphon has been finding it difficult to find machine operators for its production operations. “Recruiting operators has been next to impossible. It only got harder once the pandemic hit,” said James Garner, director of TouchMark’s manufacturing operations. Examples of the medical device printing done by TouchMark.
