Engineered for Accuracy, Yield & Compliance
Precision Coating & Drying
Our slot‑die coating technology delivers consistent coating thickness while minimizing waste. Modular coating and drying platforms allow for added capabilities such as scanning systems, weight measurement, lamination, and changeable coating heads.
Die Cutting & Placement
Advanced die‑cutting and placement modules enable smaller, more precise cuts with less scrap — maximizing drug utilization. When paired with the MOD‑TRACK® Vision System, real‑time registration corrections help maintain high CPK values.
Vision Inspection & Traceability
The MOD‑TRACK® Vision System verifies product quality and automatically adjusts registration positions to maintain accuracy throughout production. Integrated rejection ensures non‑conforming parts are removed immediately.
Lot / Date Code Printing
Integrated lot and date code printing supports traceability and validation requirements, with control directly from the machine’s touchscreen interface and connectivity to factory automation systems.
End‑of‑Line Integration
Delta ModTech integrates packaging and robotic systems into fully automated lines — all controlled from a single HMI.
Heat‑Seal Pouching
Patented heat‑seal pouching technology delivers repeatable sealing time, temperature, and pressure while maintaining continuous motion inline with the converting process.
Raw material utilization
Advanced spreading and placement techniques maximize raw material utilization, resulting in decreased cost per finished part.
Delta ModTech systems are trusted worldwide for transdermal drug delivery production, supporting a wide range of patch sizes, formats, and formulations across development and commercial manufacturing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Precision & Accuracy in Production
Do your machines deliver high precision for multilayer dressing manufacturing?
Yes. Our machines deliver high precision for multilayer dressing manufacturing by using servo-driven platforms that integrate rotary die-cutting, lamination, and inline vision inspection to align layers, sometimes within ±0.1 mm (application-dependent). This ensures consistent adhesive placement, bonding, and sterile-ready production.
Do your systems maintain tight tolerances in adhesive coating?
Our machines maintain tight tolerances in adhesive coating by using servo-driven controls, slot die or gravure coating, and inline thickness measurement to keep adhesive variation to a minimum.
Do your systems have accurate die-cutting capabilities?
Yes. Our systems’ die-cutting capabilities leverage servo-driven registration, precision rotary or laser tooling, and inline vision correction to hold tight tolerances (sometimes within ±0.1 mm – application dependent) for complex dressing shapes.
Do you offer high quality solutions for precision rotary die cutting in wound dressings?
Delta ModTech delivers precision rotary die cutting with systems that feature servo-driven registration, high-tolerance rotary tooling, and inline vision alignment. Cut accuracy within ±0.1 mm is possible (application-dependent).
Do you offer precise edge alignment for multi-layer wound care products?
Delta ModTech provides precise edge alignment for multi-layer wound care products. Our systems use servo-driven web guides, ultrasonic or optical sensors, and real-time registration correction to maintain alignment, down to within ±0.1 mm (application-dependent) at high speeds.
