Following the UK Government and NHS emergency call for medical ventilators during the COVID-19 Coronavirus pandemic, a number of the UK's leading blue chip electronics and manufacturing specialists formed the VentilatorChallengeUK Consortium, to meet the demand for the production of 15,000+ medical ventilators as soon as possible.


Penlon Ventilator Challenge UK cable assemblyBrief:

CIE Electronics were approached by the Consortium to provide high volumes of critical custom cable assemblies for both exisiting medical ventilator models and approved new designs, requiring the CIE team to design, source, manufacture and deliver 7 different non-standard video and control cables within extremely short time spans.

A number of the cables required new designs and new tooling and included connectivity to the interactive display screen, power transfer and signal control cables.
