Manufacturing chain


Explanation:
Is this an Austrian document? No hits on Konfektionsbahn on Google.

IO only can guess.

"Konfektion" is used for manufacturing ready-made clothes.

Nahm seems to be a manufacturing chain

But this simnply based on the assumption that you talk about the fabrication of catheters.

assembly conveyor


Explanation:
konfektionieren is the assembly of parts, e.g. press-fit of connectors to a cable according to customer-specific requirements. I can imagine, that this fits to your context as well.

amendmend/alternative: final assembly and packaging line


Explanation:
In reviewing the catheter section of my Google hits, I conclude that packaging may well be -- and probably is -- included in your operation, along with assembly. Any context to suggest whether the packaging department is separate? However, it may not be necessary to specifically state this.

All the best, Tom
