NewTek disposable glucose meter

  • NEWTEK – TRIAL ASSEMBLY BUILD & TESTING

    Newtek blood glucose meter trial assembly during the pre-production phase of development. Meters were built using components moulded from prototype tooling.

  • NEWTEK – STRIP DISPENSING MECHANISM

    The dispensing mechanism in the glucose meter uses a constant force strip to move the strip stack down in the cartridge, presenting a new strip for each test.

  • NEWTEK – CARTRIDGE RATCHET MECHANISM

    The ratchet mechanism inside the 100-strip cartridge ensures the strips remain in a stack. If the meter is dropped, the ratchet locks into the cartridge body.

  • NEWTEK – AUTOMATIC STRIP PRESENTATION

    The test strip is automatically presented to the user and the blood glucose test can be performed. This avoid any strip handling - a problem for users with poor dexterity.
