Our San Diego lab
Designed and built under one roof
Catheter lamination, laser welding, UV curing, 3D printing, nitinol shape setting, and ePTFE covering all happen in our San Diego lab.
The team
Work directly with the engineers
Our two founding engineers do the work themselves. We design, build, and test in our San Diego lab.
You own everything
Everything we create for your project, from designs and IP to documentation, is owned by you.
FAQ
I have an idea but no engineering team. Can you develop the whole device?
Yes, that's what we're built for. Bring the idea, even if it's a napkin sketch. We design and prototype the device, prepare it for manufacturing with your team or a contract manufacturer, and support design verification testing, clinical builds, and clinical trials.
How long does it take to get a first prototype?
It depends on the device. We break the work into stages and quote the first stage before we start.
How do you charge, and what do I get?
We bill time and materials. At the end of each stage, you receive the prototypes, drawings, test data, and documentation from that stage, and all of it is yours.
What kinds of companies do you work with?
Companies of any size, from a single physician with an idea to an established device company. We can run your full development program, join your engineering team to add support or specialized expertise, or take on a defined piece of work, such as one subsystem, a test fixture, a design package, or a set of prototype builds. If you already have a quality system, we work within it.
