Safe Operation of Sensitive Veterinary Technology in Field Conditions
Noviko COVETRUS is a leading supplier of veterinary pharmaceuticals, equipment, consumables and medical devices for veterinary clinics and practices in the Czech Republic. The company focuses on the distribution of modern diagnostic and endoscopic systems and their practical use not only in clinical settings but also in field environments.
Their portfolio includes advanced endoscopic processors that require a high level of protection, reliability and ease of handling during daily use outside standard clinical facilities.
Challenge: Endoscopic Technology in Field Operation
Noviko COVETRUS needed to develop a transport case for an endoscopic processor that would allow safe operation directly in the field. The device is frequently used in environments where dust, moisture and limited working conditions are common, while also requiring regular transport between different locations.
A key requirement was that the processor could remain permanently mounted inside the case, without the need for frequent removal and reconnection.
The solution had to
- protect sensitive electronics, connectors, power supply components
- and related accessories while still allowing easy access to controls and connection ports during operation.
Another important factor was
- compatibility with two processor variants (with and without an integrated screen)
- along with low weight and easy portability without the use of wheels.
HaCase Solution: A Case Designed for Operation, Not Just Transport
The solution was developed with a focus on real field use rather than transport alone. The objective was to create a case that becomes a natural part of working with endoscopic equipment.
Construction Adapted to Field Conditions
The foundation of the solution was a compact yet robust construction designed to withstand mechanical stress, frequent handling and demanding operating environments. The case structure was optimized in terms of weight to remain easily portable without the need for wheels.
Thoughtful Internal Layout
The interior was designed to safely accommodate endoscopic processors in both variants. The solution includes protection for sensitive electronics, connectors and power components, as well as organized storage for accessories.
Special attention was given to ensuring that the processor is immediately ready for use, without complex handling or additional setup.
Accessibility and Ergonomics
The case provides easy access to control elements and connectors, which is essential for efficient field work. The design accounts for frequent opening, quick access to the device and secure closure during transport.
The solution also includes an integrated ventilation system, ensuring safe device operation even during extended use directly from the case.
Mobility Without Compromise
Given the requirement for
- frequent relocation,
- emphasis was placed on low weight,
- high-quality handles and simple opening mechanisms.
The case is designed to be easily carried by one person while providing maximum protection for the stored equipment.
Result
The final solution fully meets the expectations of both Noviko COVETRUS and end users of the endoscopic equipment. In practice, the case has proven to be functional, reliable and highly usable, even in demanding field conditions.
The new solution increased equipment safety, significantly simplified handling and enabled efficient use of endoscopic technology directly in the field.
“Cooperation resulted in a practical and functional solution that significantly improved daily work with endoscopic technology in the field. We appreciate the professional approach, fast communication and the ability to translate technical requirements into practical solutions.”
