EXPERTISE
Electro-Mechanical Devices & Capital Equipment
Alentra PD supports the development of electro-mechanical medical devices and capital equipment that bring mechanical, electrical, sensing, interface, and software requirements together within an integrated system.
ELECTRO-MECHANICAL EXPERIENCE
Integrated medical device systems for complex development programs
Electro-mechanical medical devices can combine multiple engineering disciplines within a single system. Mechanical components, electronics, sensors, controls, user interfaces, and software-supported functions may all need to work together while meeting clinical, usability, manufacturing, and quality requirements.

Capital Equipment
Integrated Device Development
Electro-Mechanical Assemblies
Electro-mechanical assemblies combine mechanical and electrical elements within a coordinated medical device system. Development can require the physical design, components, interfaces, and assembly approach to work together while meeting the requirements established for the device.
- Mechanical and electrical integration
- Industrial and detailed engineering
- Component sourcing and integration
- Assembly-process development
Capital Equipment
Medical capital equipment can involve larger or more complex device systems where multiple components and technical requirements must function together as a complete product.
- Integrated mechanical and electrical requirements
- Device architecture and physical configuration
- User interaction and usability considerations
- Testing and manufacturing preparation
Integrated Device Development
Complex electro-mechanical devices require individual design activities to work as part of one coordinated development program. Engineering, industrial design, prototype evaluation, component decisions, testing, documentation, and manufacturing preparation all contribute to moving the complete device forward.
- Engineering and detailed design
- Prototype generation and evaluation
- Tooling and component sourcing
- Test-method and assembly-process development
