Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture facilities

We operate a continued process of improvement in our design and production of our Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture methods. The recent introduction of new sizes and ranges of both Controlled drugs cabinets and Medicine cabinets necessitates a more modern and streamlined Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture system. To this end we have recently taken delivery of and installed two state of the art Press brake machines with fully programmable systems.

The new systems installed on these machines allow pre-programming of all the various bend permutations associated with the numerous different cabinet types we manufacture. For instance a  CDC 101s Controlled Drugs Cabinet 480mm H x 560mm W x 160mm D requires different bend sizes to  for example a MED-300 Medicine Cabinet  900mm H X 600mm W X 300mm D. With the systems available to us with these new machines the particular bend sizes peculiar to each product type is programmed in just the once and recorded. Therefor when the next batch of Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture is undertaken of a particular cabinet type these specific details are presented to the operator. When the part number is input the machine will move the back stop to the correct position for the first bend, automatically calculate the required bending pressure for that bend and wait for the operator to action the process. Once that bend has been carried out the machine will set its self-up for the second and any subsequent operations in the sequence. This helps reduce operator error and ensures with the use of the correct bending tonnage, the machine is not overstressed and damaged.

These machines were installed during 2014 and have proved to be a very valuable addition to our Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture method.

Our website has a dedicated page explaining how we manufacture all our controlled drugs cabinets and can be seen by clicking here. It also contains a page showing how we manufacture our bespoke controlled drugs cabinets and this can be viewed by clicking here.

Although these pages give you a detailed explanation around the production process of a bespoke controlled drugs cabinet, the basic stages are listed here below:

1. Ascertain the customer’s requirements and offer advise where necessary.
2. Prepare an engineering drawing for submission to the customer. This allows the customer to visualise their product and check all relevant sizes etc. We ask the customer to approve the drawing prior to manufacturing the bespoke controlled drugs cabinet.
3. We prepare and submit a pro-forma invoice. Once payment is received, and the drawings are approved, we  commence work on the cabinet. We ask for payment prior to starting works as we will have difficulty selling a bespoke controlled drugs cabinet if the customer changed their mind.
4. Manufacturing commences. We send all profiles of the cabinet off to be laser cut ensuring accuracy.
5. The cabinet blanks, fresh from being laser cut, are then formed into the structure of the bespoke controlled drugs cabinet.
6. We then take this formed cabinet and tack weld it into shape. The cabinet now looks like a cabinet. Once we are happy with the fit and shape, the cabinet is fully welded as specified in the misuse of drugs act.
7. Now the cabinet is fully welded, all rough weld marks are removed with a sander, ensuring the finish of the cabinet it up to standard.
8. The doors are test fitted to ensure that the cabinet is ready for paint.
9. The bespoke controlled drugs cabinet is sent to our powder coating facility to be painted.
10. The painted components of the controlled drugs cabinet are assembled, the locks are installed and the cabinet is packaged, ready for delivery to the customer.
11. The cabinet is sent on its way, either by our own transport, via, APC or the Pallet Network depending on the size of the cabinet and whereabouts the cabinet is being delivered.
