CHALLENGE

EndoEvolution, the leader in advanced automated suturing device technology, collaborated with Bleck Design Group to develop the Endo360°.

RESULTS

Bleck Design Group provided industrial design and mechanical engineering to create an intuitive suturing device that allows minimally invasive surgeons to place perfect stitches quickly, easily and safely. Endo360° is a reusable instrument sterilized by autoclaving. We identified US vendors, built a supply chain, provided documents and quality control guidance.

BUSINESS IMPACT

Our product manufacturing cost was 1/10th the cost of the previous pilot version of the device.
