First Principles … A Better Way. We work with medical device companies to make good, data-driven, design decisions and develop a good understanding of tradeoffs and opportunities. This helps our clients to meet deadlines, stay within budget, and plan based on predictable outcomes. Our clients typically have one or more these three issues: 1. They keep coming to dead-ends in their product development because they don’t have a good way of vetting conceptual designs. Because of this they often go over budget and miss critical schedule milestones. 2. Because they don’t have a good process for making good, data-driven, design decisions they spend too much time and money guessing, building, testing, and iterating. 3. Because they don’t have a model-based understanding of their system, they have a hard time knowing how to interpret test data and fall into a “test-to-success” mindset which often does not converge in a way that meets functional, schedule, and budget objectives.

Please take a look at the update on Hans' project. Like so many things in engineering it's harder than it looks! But he's making good progress.... Excited to see the next steps of subsystem debug, integration, and system level testing.
Here's an update on my SMA Wire Dynamometer project. It goes into detail in the design of the system, progress thus far, and describes some of the challenges that I have been dealing with. Hope you enjoy.

I'm pleased to report that we have recently completed another build of the medical device we supply to one of our clients. Over the course of 11 builds, we have manufactured more than 17,000 devices, achieving an impressive overall manufacturing yield of 99.3%. Our yield for the last 8 builds has been even higher, exceeding 99.7%, with a field failure rate of less than 0.02%. This success is a testament to the hard work and expertise of our engineering team, as well as the skill and dedication of our supply and final assembly partners. I'm happy to announce that we kicked off the final assembly of another build of 1500 devices last week!
