MCD Medical Computers Deutschland

What MCD Medical Computers Deutschland does

MCD Medical Computers Deutschland GmbH is a German manufacturer of medical-grade computing hardware, founded on 21 November 2005 through a Management Buy-Out by Claudia and Thomas Hollex from the predecessor Tulip Computers Deutschland GmbH, whose first Medical PC dates to 1998. The company operates from its registered headquarters at Konrad-Zuse-Ring 17 A/B in Mönchengladbach, a production and service facility in Hüllhorst (opened in the Terra Cloud building), and a US subsidiary — MCD Medical Devices + Solutions, Inc. — in Agoura Hills, California. With a headcount in the 11–50 range and a GmbH corporate structure, it serves the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), the Benelux (Netherlands), and the United States under the umbrella MCD Medical Line brand, led by Managing Directors Thomas Hollex and Dennis Hollex with WORTMANN Beteiligungs GmbH as an additional shareholder.

The product portfolio consists of medical panel PCs, medical monitors, and medical desktop/client PCs engineered explicitly for clinical hygiene, 24/7 reliability, and electromagnetic/electrical safety. Flagship offerings include the premium fanless THA.leia³ panel PC (aluminum housing, 21.5″/23.8″/27″ Full HD IPS, expandable via PCIe, with optional framegrabber, RFID, and optical bonding), the entry-level THA.leia essential (sealed ABS housing, 24″, IGEL OS-ready thin client use), the OMNI.view² medical monitor, the PANA.ceia4 performance desktop, the silence-optimized AESCU.certus³ desktop, and the compact fanless AESCU.nano client PC. Differentiated design features include fanless sealed enclosures, closed glass fronts, hygienic capacitive buttons, 4 kV galvanic isolation, touch-lock during disinfection, ECO power switching, and an in-house production stack covering adhesive bonding, dust-free assembly, and cable harness manufacture. The company is certified to ISO 9001 (2008), ISO 13485 (2013), FDA 21 CFR Part 820 for Class 2 Medical Devices (2013), and CE/EN 60601-1 / EN 60601-1-2 under the EU MDR.

MCD runs a dual-track business model. On one track it sells standardized MCD Medical Line hardware direct to hospitals, clinics, and medical facilities for OR, ICU, radiology, laboratory, and clean-room deployments via direct enterprise sales, contact-form-driven quoting, and a dealer/trade partner network governed by a Fachhandelspreisliste (trade price list). On the other, it delivers full Product Lifecycle Management services to active medical device manufacturers — from consultation, development, regulatory support, supply chain, production, qualification, and logistics through to EOL and after-sales service — with custom development of electronic and mechanical assemblies that those OEMs bring to market as finished medical products or systems. No public pricing is disclosed; pricing is quote-based on multi-year contracts with OEMs and on project-specific terms with hospital customers.
