Husky and Kriya Forge Strategic Collaboration with ICHORTM Integrated Medical System in India
Husky Technologies™ is excited to announce a major milestone in our collaboration with Kriya Medical Technologies Pvt. Ltd., marked by the successful deployment of the first ICHOR™ integrated medical system in India capable of producing both 13×100 and 13x75mm blood collection tubes. The inauguration ceremony, held on September 18, 2024, at Kriya’s Chennai facility, was a notable event aended by Anu Moturi, Kriya’s Founder and CEO, Husky’s executive medical team, and government representatives, including the Minister for Industries, Investment Promotion & Commerce, Government of Tamil Nadu.
Kriya’s goal is to evolve from a regional leader into a prominent player in the global market. Their investment in this project, supported by Husky’s innovative system approach and comprehensive service agreement, underscores this goal while reinforcing their commitment to excellence. Husky’s ICHOR™ system is the ideal complement, capable of producing up to 250 million tubes/year and demonstrating a cycle time of less than 5.5 seconds, which is currently the market’s fastest. The Advantage+Elite™ service agreement was also a critical factor, providing Kriya with 24/7 expert support and real-time monitoring to ensure optimal performance, part quality and production reliability.
A primary reason for bringing production inhouse was to achieve a cost-effective and stable supply of highquality parts – aligning with Kriya’s vision to be recognized as a premium quality supplier for blood collection tubes both locally and internationally. The successful collaboration, which involved defining the injection solution, selecting resins, and facilitating system integration, highlights the strength of this joint effort and Husky’s role in supporting Kriya’s growth and market leadership goals.
The ICHOR™ medical system represents Husky’s advanced solution for blood collection tubes, built upon the company’s proven PET technology and featuring integrated robots, auxiliaries, a unified HMI, and an advanced hot runner. Designed to meet the needs of both new and existing medical device manufacturers, ICHOR™ delivers exceptional productivity, precision, and efficiency. The system provides high-quality, high precision parts with increased speed and productivity, reduced wear, extended mold life, and minimized waste and variability. This innovation ensures that customers like Kriya can achieve superior performance and reliability throughout all stages of their production process. An emerging medical device company headquartered in Chennai, India, Kriya has been focused on adopting industry-leading technologies to enable delivery of the most advanced, high quality, affordable health care to the growing Indian market and underserved emerging markets.
