Ninety percent of manufacturing costs are designed into a product or component, so a manufacturable design combined with a smooth transition to prototyping and global production is critical to the success and profitability of a project. Customers who involve experts at every stage of the project benefit from reduced costs and faster, more efficient market introduction.

The Rapid Development Center provides access to a team of engineers with in-depth experience in the medical device and pharmaceutical industries, who build the project with customers from the ground up.

Collaborating Every Step of the Way

Our dedicated team of engineers works hand-in-hand with customers to:
RDC_design

Design

Support product development and identify potential improvements at the design stage. This has significant, long-term effects on the material and production costs of the product.

RDC_prototyping

Prototype

Create samples with a focus on prototyping parts that are as close as possible to the final process in terms of tooling used and the build-quality achieved.

RDC_manufacture

Manufacture

Plan the final steps towards serial production, including processes and protocols for rapid scaling to fully automated production in accordance with all legal and regulatory requirements.
