Experience
ESCA Inc. is the design and development arm of a midwest medical appliance start up company. Two related products have been successfully launched to date. Both products are centered around the company's patented MD.2 medication dispenser. The MD.2 is intended for home use and designed to be very user friendly. One version delivers medication exclusively, while the second version includes a fully integrated Personal Emergency Response System (PERS).
For more information on the MD.2, visit the MD.2's web site.
ESCA Inc. has been involved with this start up effort from product inception through full support of production. Electrical, software and mechanical concepts and designs were developed at ESCA Inc., plastic part design and tooling fabrication was managed by the ESCA Inc. staff.
Transition to production, as well as complete manufacturing over-site, special factory test equipment development, and a repair / refurbishment depot has been provided by ESCA Inc.
A sophisticated SQL based client/server database application was also developed to support remote set up of the product in the field, as well as providing daily operational statistical collection and a caregiver back-up for alert handling (e.g. missed dosage alerts).
We also provide extensive Support Center operations such as technical support, a computer based database center, and a web site supporting remote user configuration and reporting functions.
