HMIs and sensor technology in medical technology
Many physicians, medical professionals, and accompanying healthcare professionals overcome significant challenges on a daily basis. In order to ideally take care of our health and save lives, they are supported by medical devices. These must be simple, intuitive and, above all, safe to use. We know what matters when it comes to HMIs and sensor technology for medical technology and support you in the development and production of reliable operating concepts. With our quality management according to DIN EN 13485 and our development-accompanying consultations, we lead your medical product to a successful approval according to the Medical Devices Act and the Medical Devices Ordinance.
Certification 13485
In addition to our many years of know-how in medical technology, we also demonstrably meet the high requirements of the extended quality management according to DIN EN ISO 13485.
Long life
We rely on high-quality materials, certified suppliers and manufacture exclusively at our site in Buchen. This enables us to guarantee durable products of high quality for medical technology.
Disinfection + Cleaning
Our film and glass surfaces can be easily treated with cleaning and disinfecting agents. In-Mold Decoration and antimicrobial decoration films provide your HMI with extra protection.
Glove operation
In order to be able to operate your PCAP touch system smoothly even with thin medical gloves, we make the appropriate software settings.
EMC compatibility
With EMC coatings and shielding, we protect your and surrounding equipment from electromagnetic interference and unwanted influences.
Outdoor use
For medical devices in outdoor use, we develop individual protection and sealing concepts according to IP protection classes and select robust and UV-resistant materials.
Our solutions for medical technology
HMIs
In close coordination with our customers, we develop touch systems in a wide range of diagonals, individual capacitive keys with illumination or durable and reliable membrane keyboards. Our HMI solutions meet the high safety and hygiene requirements of medical technology.
High-quality materials, closed user interfaces and individual protection and sealing concepts make your HMI resistant to cleaning agents and disinfectants, saline solutions or even blood.

Housing + carrier
We integrate your operating unit into a suitable housing or carrier. For an individual housing solution, we will gladly take over the design, procurement and, of course, the assembly of the operating unit. Alternatively, we also print high-quality plastic parts using our Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing process.
If a standard housing with individual adaptations is sufficient for your needs, we fall back on an extensive standard housing program of our suppliers. You can choose from plastic, aluminum or stainless steel.
Connectivity
Smart control units with integrated NFC technology or SIM cards make your medical device future-oriented.
We enrich your medical device with advanced features and services, transfer collected data to the cloud or simplify your device management. For this purpose, we use the extensive know-how of our HK technology network and can offer you a one-stop solution for individual IoT solutions.
Printed Electronics + Sensors
To automate or monitor motion sequences, we develop and manufacture individual printed foil sensors.
Use our displacement, angle, force or position measurements for your medical devices or operating room and surgery equipment.

Industry know-how and successful projects in medical technology
Together with our customers, we have already successfully implemented several projects in medical technology.
Saving lives with the corpuls patient monitor
Medical Technology
Every day, patient monitors and defibrillators are in use to save lives. Each of these medical devices is operated by humans and always requires a user interface. corpuls relies on our dependable and durable membrane keypads.
Reliably operating Siemens medical devices
Medical Technology
Flawless technology that functions at all times is an absolute must for every medical device manufacturer. It was for a reason that Siemens AG relied on Hoffmann + Krippner as a partner in the development of a flexibly usable remote control unit for its devices.
Back in top shape with the pelvic floor trainer
Medical Technology
In addition to flexible membrane keypads with integrated sliders, Excio now also uses touch panels for its pelvic floor trainer. The touch system is not only modern and user-friendly, but the sealed glass surface makes it quick and easy to clean after a workout.
Sensors support the training of motor skills
Medical Technology
Modern therapy concepts for maintaining and restoring motor skills require individually adapted approaches. As part of the development of the Armeo®Spring, an arm and hand therapy device for stroke patients, reliable, accurate and individually adjustable displacement and angle sensors with a small footprint were needed to implement the system.
Gentle medical treatment of farm animals
Veterinary Medicine
Medical treatments or grooming procedures can sometimes be dangerous for both animal and human. In order to put the animals in a relaxed state for the duration of the treatment, the stimulation current probe “Gentler” was developed with our operating film.
