Design Collaboration & Quick-Turn Tube Fabrication Enable Faster Design Freeze for Surgical Device
A large surgical technology company was facing a competitive threat and needed to rapidly re-engineer one of its market-leading devices to lower the cost of use.
Novel Articulating Tissue Sealer Design Gains First-to-Market Advantage
A large surgical device company was planning to commercialize a first-of-its-kind articulating vessel sealer to strengthen its portfolio in the advanced energy device segment of the laparoscopic surgery market.
Advanced Energy Device Engineered with Ultra-Precise Tubing Tolerances for Superior Performance
A global surgical technology company needed an external partner to help develop and manufacture tubing for an advanced energy device with measurably better performance than other leading devices.
Key Component for Stent Delivery System Gets Innovative Solution
A leading, multinational medical technology company was seeking a strategic partner to develop and manufacture a key component of its next-generation, catheter-based stent delivery system: a tapered tip flexible enough to pass through the tortuous vessel.
Collaborative Transfer of Surgical Device Meets Aggressive Time Frame
A leading, multinational medical technology company needed to transfer manufacturing of a medical device to free up cleanroom manufacturing space for a new product. The customer was facing an aggressive 12-month time frame for the transfer to avoid interrupting product supply.
Bridge Tooling Solution Allows Early Delivery of Complex Surgical Device
A leading multinational medical device company turned to Viant for a large tooling/injection-molding project: manufacturing all the plastic parts for a single-use device for minimally invasive surgery. The success of the entire program hinged on the technical feasibility of manufacturing one particularly complex plastic part.
Transfer of Catheter to Low-Cost Geography Improves Manufacturing Process
Viant saw an opportunity to increase efficiencies by transferring a medical device it had been manufacturing in the US for more than a decade to its low-cost geography in Costa Rica. The product was a balloon catheter from a large surgery technology company based in Asia.
Speed & Flexibility are Key to On-Time Delivery of Molded Surgical Components
A large medical technology company acquired a line of 18 single-use accessories for laparoscopic surgery. It planned to redesign the molded components with the goal of reducing manufacturing cost without compromising quality.
Smooth Transfer of Large Cardiovascular Guide Catheter Line Saves Costs
A large cardiovascular company wanted to transfer manufacturing of a mature line of guide catheters to save costs and free up space to fuel further innovation at its US manufacturing facility. The catheter line was large and highly complex, with more than 100 SKUs, 4 different lengths, and a curved end that differentiated it from competitive products.
Smooth Transfer of Single-Use Monitoring Device Saves Costs; Boosts Package Quality
A leading surgical company had made the business decision to close its US manufacturing facility and transfer production to a low-cost geography. The product was a labor-intensive line of single-use devices for monitoring patient vital signs, for a total of 92 SKUs. The customer also targeted quality improvements and cost savings in packaging processes and materials.
