81. Solving Tough Technical Challenges Through Agility And Experience 9/10/2021

    At Knowles Precision Devices, we thrive on working with companies who want to take technically challenging ideas and work through the details to figure out how to turn their seemingly impossible ideas into reality.

82. Look, Ma! How I Solved These Disposable Diagnostic Device Challenges 9/1/2021

    Disposable diagnostic devices combine typical medtech design hurdles with high-volume production considerations, limiting the list of vendors capable of excelling — or even operating — in this space. 

83. Top Device History Record Pain Points 8/25/2021

    Manual, paper-based systems to maintain their production records, or device history records (DHRs), for compliance purposes often fall short, exposing medical technology organizations to inefficient processes, poor data tracking, inaccurate or missing information, and other unnecessary risks. This white paper focuses on the pains of a manual paper system, the quality/compliance concerns around the device history record life cycle, and how a digital system alleviates such pains and concerns.

    Discover how patient-centricity is at the heart of drug delivery device design and innovation and how the global pandemic has highlighted the importance of patient-centric development in this field.

85. Integrating Design And Industrialization To Optimize Cost, Quality & Time 6/1/2021

    Explore how integrating design and industrialization teams can optimize the cost, quality, and time of developing a novel drug delivery system.

86. Look, Ma! How I Solved These Implantable Device Challenges 3/15/2021

    Implantable medical devices are a fast-growing market that demands regulatory savvy and technical proficiency from component suppliers.

87. A GMP Implantable Grade Bioresorbable Polymer Powder Breakthrough 11/12/2020

    Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) systems use a high-powered laser to selectively melt and fuse powder particles of a bioresorbable polymer in a layer-by-layer 3D printing process to manufacture a final implantable medical device part. Depending on the part geometry, these systems can typically print geometries as small as 0.4 mm with a tolerance of +/- 0.25 mm.
