Designing a medical device is about more than just ensuring the engineering works.

It also needs to work for the people using it.

Looking back at the development of a day surgery table for ophthalmology and clinical environment.

Patient comfort, clinician accessibility and the realities of clinical practice all had to be considered alongside the engineering requirements.

The project involved developing the design from the initial client concept through prototyping, refinement and preparation for manufacture.

You can read more about the project and the decisions behind it in our latest blog.

A plot twist on car design, quite literally!

We love seeing designs like this, that break the norm and look like they came from a different planet.

The key to successful product development is to embrace a continuous learning mindset.

Embrace the unknown and dive in head first. If it works out, great! If not, you'll learn from it and gain more experience.

Never stop learning!

Before opening CAD, it is important to ask some key questions.

What does the product actually need to do?
Who is going to use it?
What constraints are we working within?
What does success look like?

Clarifying these things early on can save a lot of redesign work later on.

Addenbrooke's Hospital is 260 years old.

It’s quite a milestone, isn’t it? From its establishment as a small hospital in 1766, Addenbrooke’s has grown to become a major teaching and specialist hospital, playing a key role in the development of healthcare in Cambridge for generations.

I find it particularly interesting how much healthcare has changed during that time. The equipment, technology and environments that clinicians work with today would have been unthinkable when the hospital first opened.

This makes the engineering behind modern medical devices particularly interesting to us.
This month, we’re looking back at the development of a day surgery table designed around the needs of both patients and clinicians.

The project involved balancing patient comfort, clinician accessibility and the practicalities of clinical use, alongside the engineering and manufacturing requirements needed to turn the concept into a viable product.

When we think about maritime engineering, we tend to think of ships and engines and everything that keeps them moving.

However, a huge amount of engineering also takes place in areas that most of us will never see. Underwater equipment has to cope with pressure, corrosion, temperature, accessibility and reliability in ways that most products simply don't.

This is one of the things I find interesting about engineering. The fundamental question remains: how can we ensure reliable performance?

The answer becomes much more complicated when the product needs to work several kilometres beneath the surface.

Today is World Maritime Day, so it's a good opportunity to recognise the engineering that keeps the maritime industry moving.

The idea of a foldable iPhone sounds like an exciting product design challenge.

But one thing we find interesting about products like this is that every design decision creates another problem elsewhere.

Make it thinner, for example and something has to move.

That's product development in a nutshell. There is rarely a perfect solution. Usually, there are a series of trade-offs that need to be understood and managed.

We've worked on quite a range of products over the years.

Medical devices, scientific equipment, industrial products, consumer products and some projects that are rather more difficult to categorise.

The industries are different, but the engineering problems often have more in common than you'd expect.

- How do we make it work reliably?
- How do we manufacture it consistently?
- How do we reduce unnecessary cost and complexity?
- What happens when the product is actually being used in the real world?

That's the part of product development we enjoy.

We've put together some of our recent and previous work on the website if you'd like to see what we've been involved with 👇
