  • Accelerated testing to validate usability, ergonomics & functionality
  • Design freedom to create built-in features to support risk mitigation
Design &
Development
  • Vastly accelerated iteration cycles - hours or days vs. weeks or months
  • Design freedom to reduce part count or assembly complexity
  • Design freedom to build in visible guides to support HRT strategies
  • More effective testing with functional prototypes at end-use quality
Preclinical
Testing
  • Ability to incorporate realtime physician feedback & build their confidence
  • Anatomical accuracy when printed from CT or MRI
  • Design verification through mock-use scenarios using printed jigs & fixtures
Clinical
Trials 
  • Vastly accelerated design iteration opportunities
  • Possibility of patient-specific anatomical solutions
  • Quick & cost-effective trial-specific guides, packaging or instruments 
  • Cross-sectional or exploded views for clinician training or submission visuals
Manufacturing
at Scale
  • Accelerated low volume production for early-market use while tooling is finalized
  • Tool-less production for low-to-mid volume or personalized devices
  • Quick response to design updates and small batch production for inventory gaps
