Get development Unstuck

Whatever is blocking your progress, don't stay stuck:
Application Specific design Innovation
  • Bio-mechanics analysis and improvements relevant to your product application

  • Specialized material recommendations compatible with design constraints and catered to use case and product objectives.

  • Development of custom materials to meet challenging requirements for adhesives, traces, films, and liners

Design for Web-conversion
  • Generate manufacturable designs for roll-to-roll die cutting and lamination

  • Scale production capabilities and lower cost by updating an existing die cut designs for high volume rotary conversion.

  • Address quality problems at the source by correcting initial designs negligent of process control at scale.

  • Second source an existing design - let me find a partner that matches your business needs: materials suppliers and manufacturing converters with boutique service, efficient scale, or deep technical expertise for the most complex designs.

Confidence with Test trusted solutions
  • Pass the biocompatibility hurdle: coordinate testing correctly and interpret unexpected results while finding a path toward ISO 10993 certification

  • Develop test methods for design verification: translate and adapt standardized adhesive test methods to product performance relevant set ups and improve confidence in your design.

  • Measure actual performance using carefully designed on skin test methods to yield system level insights.

Solve the problem
  • Detail oriented root cause and failure mode analysis for quality or performance issues.

  • Fortify against program killing problems by addressing weak spots and vulnerabilities in the current design.
