The most frequent requests
Two requests come up most often:
- redesigning a product already in the catalogue, to bring down its production cost, simplify assembly or refresh its appearance;
- developing a new device to bring to market.
We work with a team that combines mechanical and electromechanical design, industrial design and simulation: it is our product development service applied to medical devices.
Our solutions for the biomedical sector
Product development
From concept to small series: industrial design, engineering and prototypes.

Find out moreThe 4 stages of device development
With every prototype round the design is updated against the test results, until the device does what it has to do.
- Conceptual designWe find and test the possible solutions.
- Detailed designWe develop and refine the chosen concept.
- Prototyping and testingWe build and test the pre-production prototype.
- Production supportWe find and follow the suppliers for the series.
What we do
- Specification and layoutDefinition of the product specification and general layout study.
- Industrial designIndustrial design of the external shapes.
- Detailed designMechanical and electromechanical design and design of plastic components, including injection moulding.
- SimulationAnalysis of physical phenomena, sizing and structural simulation.
- PrototypesProduction drawings and functional prototypes.
- IndustrialisationSupplier selection, assembly optimisation and production equipment.
CE marking and compliance
CE marking and the regulatory documentation of the device usually remain with the manufacturer. When needed, we can support you: we provide the technical design documentation (drawings, specifications, calculations and test results) and help you along the way to CE marking.
We sign a non-disclosure agreement before going into the details of the project.
Frequently asked questions
-
Where do you start if we only have a product idea?
From the specification: we define the requirements and general layout with you, then move on to concept design and the first prototypes.
-
Can you redesign a device that is already in production?
Yes, it is one of the most frequent requests: we redesign the product to bring down its production cost, simplify assembly or refresh its appearance.
-
Do you build prototypes and small series?
Yes: we build functional and pre-production prototypes, test them and follow the suppliers for the small series.
-
Do you also design the equipment to manufacture the device?
Yes: we design and supply production equipment for medical devices.
-
Do you work with companies outside Tuscany?
Yes: from our site in Navacchio, near Pisa, we work with companies in Tuscany, across Italy and abroad.
-
Do you sign a non-disclosure agreement before seeing the project?
Yes, we sign a non-disclosure agreement before going into the details of the project.
