Research & Development 1

Product Development Process

Robust Design Principles

Our product design is developed using tools, such as

  • Robust Design principles

 

  • Geometric Product Specifications (GPS)

 

  • SolidWorks 3D CAD and PDM

 

  • Finite Element analysis (FEA)

 

  • Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

Safety is Key

Design controls, human factors, and risk management are integrated parts of our development model and mindset throughout all phases of the development of your product. This ensures safety and efficacy of the product.

 

 

User Centric Development

Understanding end-users’ needs is key to maximizing value of any new product. When developing your product we collect valuable end-user knowledge through focus groups, medical advisory boards, and key opinion leaders.

Designing for tomorrow

We strive to be the innovative company of choice within infusion delivery technology.

Our innovation laboratory is equipped with various prototyping setups e.g. 3D printing facilities, flexible manual gluing and assembly lines, as well as CNC and rapid prototyping molding.

Focus on End-User Needs

Medical device innovation is a multi-faceted process. One of the earliest phases is understanding individual user needs. This is imperative for a successful innovation process, final product quality, and user safety.

Diverse stakeholder input is provided into our innovation model to ensure product robustness and design for manufacturing. Throughout the process, we consider the cost effectiveness of the concept during prototype development.

Die Design & Injection Molding

Our expert in house design team works closely with customers from the beginning of each project to ensure that all assemblies are consistently successful at the prototyping stage.

We employ New Product Introduction (NPI) staff to ensure that the metal parts meet our customers’ expectations in terms of specification and quality.

New developments are optimised by our dedicated team to ensure that they utilise the very best in machine and tooling technology. This allows us to offer maximum efficiency whilst maintaining the highest levels of quality for our customers.

The latest technology in CAD and CAM design for sheet metal applications

All of our sheet metal fabrication products are developed in a 3D environment using the latest CAD software.

Where customers have established designs, we can take 3D models in a variety of formats and utilise this information to produce the sheet metal components, reducing the machine programming time dramatically. Jigs and fixtures that are required for assemblies can be designed and developed in-house directly from 3D models which ensures that the parts will be right – first time, every time.

Clean Room Injection Molding

Clean room injection molding is a process used for producing medical device and combination product components in wide range of materials, enabling us to precisely match customer specifications. Along with advanced additive manufacturing, it delivers a full spectrum of capabilities.

Partnering with an outsourced contract manufacturer gives you access to the most cutting-edge equipment, highly skilled engineers and advanced technology which in turn helps to decrease project implementation lead-times and costs, whilst also overcoming limited capacity constraints. With the life saving device components and the need to ensure a low level of bioburden, outsourcing injection molding and other value-added services under one roof is a key advantage.

Injection Molding

Caspian medical uses clean room injection molding for medical device, combination and pharmaceutical components using a host of materials including medical grade elastomers and most thermoplastic grades is compliant to a variety of healthcare and medical standards and approvals (FDA, USP Class VI and others). We focus on complex components in medium to low quantities with the capability to producing parts from 0,1 to 100 cm³ in Class 7 and 8 controlled clean room environments. Caspian medical injection molding is a part of complete device manufacturing process along with value-added services such as welding, printing, assembling, packaging and sterilization.

Assembly

Modern medical devices assembly technologies must adhere to product and regulatory requirements. With rapid development of advanced production automation, process control, information technology and networking it is possible to achieve more flexibility and scale production. It is important to take the purpose of the product into consideration to find the most efficient way of assembling it.

Our facilities are supported by experienced and knowledgeable personnel along with the cutting edge machinery necessary to provide the highest quality medical device assembly solutions from conception to finished market goods. Our capacity is expanding and we are always prepared to set up efficient, cost-effective assembly lines for our customers, performing end-to-end testing to ensure specifications are met, high performance and much more. We share expertise and ideas from small to large-scale production to increase optimization of the assembly process and find the most competitive solutions.

Machining

Machining is the process of removing material from a solid piece by either drilling, turning or milling until only a desired shape remains. The workpiece is manipulated on either 3 or 5 axis as the tools subtract material according to a pre-determined program. Complex precision shapes can be created from metal by using machining.

Caspian medical is committed to providing a superior quality products using the latest technology in machining. Investing in industry-leading technology allows for reduced project timelines and improved project accuracy through the use of high-performance, computer numerically controlled machinery.
