Design & Development for Minimally Invasive Medical Devices
From Concept to Prototype — Bringing Your Innovation to Life with Precision
At Salt Medical, we specialise in transforming early-stage ideas into validated, production-ready prototypes. With deep expertise in minimally invasive devices, we partner with you at every stage, from concept ideation through regulatory-conscious design refinement to prototype realisation.
Why choose salt medical for your design?
From Concept to Reality.
-
Medical-device domain expertise — Our engineers understand the unique challenges of minimally invasive devices (biocompatibility, sterilization, miniaturization, regulatory constraints).
-
End-to-end continuity — Design outputs are optimized for in-house prototyping and downstream manufacturing, minimizing translation losses.
-
Iterative, risk-aware process — We embed risk analyses, design for manufacturability (DfM), and design for regulatory compliance early.
-
State-of-the-art tools & environments — Advanced CAD, multiphysics simulation, rapid prototyping labs, and cleanroom integration.
-
Collaborative, transparent workflow — You stay involved in design decisions via milestones, reviews, and shared access to digital assets.
-
Proven track record — Decades of experience from the team at Salt Medical, delivering medical device programs with quality, speed, and traceability.
