This dissertation discusses the issue of modernisation of testing modules and procedures in an automated assembly line adapted to manufacture medical pressure transducers in Aesculap Chifa company. The manufactured transducer is used for invasive measurement of patient’s physiological pressure, and, therefore, must not pose any threat either to patient’s health or life. This is the reason why the operation of the assembly line has been identified, testing modules and procedures have been evaluated and the construction modifications have been suggested. During the research, the influence of suggested construction modifications, enhanced with procedure changes, has been verified.The suggested adjustments have enabled, as required, to improve the operation of automated assembly line adapted to manufacture medical pressure transducers.
