In today’s environment of increasing cost pressures, our customers know that the best time to reduce costs is during the design phase. By tapping into the technical expertise rms Surgical offers, our customers gain access to decades of machining and assembly experience during design phase activities. Typically referred to as Design for Manufacturability and Assembly (DFMA), this process facilitates a detailed review of the part use, design requirements and tolerances between your designers and the rms Surgical manufacturing and quality engineering teams. This exchange ensures that we will manufacture your products to achieve the required performance in the most economical way.

• CAD/CAM: ProEngineer, ProManufacturing, Solid Works and Unigraphics
• Systems and capabilities to validate FDA Class III instrument manufacturing process

Conventional wisdom dictates that the best way to control prototype lead times is to perform prototype activities outside the production environment. While this may sometimes be true, this method can also increase time to market due to the additional steps necessary for converting the prototype process to a production ready capability. That is why rms Surgical uses the same resources, tooling and processes to produce your critical prototypes and production released products. Capitalizing on our abundance of machine tools assures that the best equipment, processes and manufacturing talent will be used for every phase of your product life cycle without sacrificing a short lead time.

Since rms Surgical invests heavily in continuous improvement and operational excellence, we never stop looking for ways to make your products faster, safer, stronger and less expensive. Not only do we focus significant resources and skills during the DFM (Design For Manufacturer) stage, we also challenge our machinists and programmers to look for additional methods to improve your products throughput.
