Diagnostics &
lab systems
The devices and systems for laboratory diagnosis and automation that we develop improve work for professionals in labs and in medicine. Our aim is to design these more efficiently, safely, simply, and reproducibly. The solutions we provide for you are always the result of a holistic development process; specialists from the fields of engineering, associated sciences, application development, operating companies, users, and patients are all involved. Development spans the entire product creation process from concept, system verification, and design transfer, right through to production.
In-vitro diagnostics (IVD) & point-of-care (POC) diagnostics
Helbling has more than 20 years of experience in developing automated laboratory equipment for clinical and molecular diagnostics. Our strength lies in cross-system development. Interdisciplinary teams comprising experts from the fields of industrial design, optics, mechanics, electronics, and software engineering interact with specialists in medicine, chemistry, biology, and physics. The focus is always on the combination of applications, consumables, and devices.
Our development process is based on the provisions of the European Directive 98/79/EC and European Regulation 2017/476 on IVDs, and is certified in accordance with ISO 13485:2016 and FDA compliant (21 CFR Part 820). The following norms and standards are also applied:
- IEC 62304: Development of medical software
- IEC 62366: Usability engineering
- EN ISO 14971: Risk management
- IEC 61010: Safety regulations for laboratory equipment
- IEC 60601: Safety regulations for medical devices
- MDR: Medical Devices Regulation (EU) 2017/745
- GAMP5: Achieving compliant computerized systems
