13. Animas Keypad Redesign Project
13
In 2011, Wilson-Hurd teamed up with Animas, a Johnson & Johnson company,
to help them solve a critical issue with their Insulin Pump keypad that had
resulted in $8MM in 2010 warranty costs, causing considerable financial &
customer service impacts to the Animas business.

14. Animas Keypad Redesign Project
Wilson-Hurd developed unique testing equipment
that replicated real-world usage of the keypad.This
included testers that measure:
• Strength
• Peeling
• Non-perpendicular button actuations
• Actuation force, and more.
14
The future keypad had to
meet a number of
standards including being
able to do the following:
• Last 4 years (the
warranty of Animas’
pump)
• Endure extreme
cold/heat
• Endure punishment
from younger
customers
• Resist moisture & oil
contamination
• Prevent
peeling/detachment
• Eliminate scratches or
damage to keypad icons
The keypad developed through a collaboration
between Wilson-Hurd & Animas met all necessary
standards.

By collaborating with Wilson-Hurd, Animas
experienced a number of positive impacts,
including:
• Improved experience with Animas Insulin Pump –
enhanced tactile feel and responsiveness
• Extended longevity of Animas Insulin Pump - >50%
reduction in keypad failures over pump life
• $5MM improvement to bottom line
• Long-term top-line growth potential via brand
recognition/perception
• Decreased regulatory exposure
“Where the incumbent supplier failed to
innovate on their current solution,Wilson-Hurd
tackled the challenge with expertise & urgency.
The solution originated fromWilson-Hurd’s
materials and process knowledge. Specifically,
they understood how rubber blends, specialty
coatings, adhesives and process parameters
could be aligned to deliver a robust keypad
solution…” “Wilson-Hurd didn’t just play a role
in the process, they were the process. From
project inception to final testing &
manufacturing ramp-up.Wilson-Hurd found
ways to elevate the solution through continued
experimentation and never settled for ‘good’,
instead of ‘great’.
