Product Specifications
The PDS outlines the user and functional requirements for your product. This critical document is a standard component of Synectic’s process. It ensures all product requirements are communicated accurately between the customer and the design team.
Patent Review
We review the patent landscape and provide an assessment of the claims and product developed. This assessment will determine if the IP is expired, how specific the claims are, or if the same functionality can be achieved via an alternative design path.
Competitive Analysis
Being second or third to market can have its advantages; understanding the opportunities for improvements often creates a better solution. Synectic will benchmark current products and interview end users to identify potential design improvements.
Concept Generation
Synectic’s entire team collaborates with the client to brainstorm initial concepts that solve the identified design problem. These concepts are communicated using hand sketches, breadboard prototypes, or CAD.
Concept Design
We convert device concepts into detailed CAD designs. Then, create parts to a level of detail that allows them to be fabricated using rapid prototyping techniques. Finally, we build assemblies that depict the entire end product and how the parts are interconnected.
Product Development
Using our extensive array of prototyping services we fabricate parts and perform first article inspections to ensure that the parts were made accurately. Individual parts are assembled and tested by verifying that they meet the intended design goal.
Product Testing
Synectic conducts all tests using an approved protocol based on the Product Development Specification. This checks that the product design meets the intended functionality. The results are documented in a testing report.
Quality Documentation
Maintaining a detailed Design History File is a core value and a differentiator of our medical device design process. As part of our quality management system, Synectic is diligent in documenting all quality aspects of your product design.
