PROTOTYPING SOLUTIONS
Catheter Prototyping for Advanced Medical Devices
ICS Medical Devices specialise in the prototyping of complex catheter shafts and devices.
Our catheter prototypes are tailored to your needs – from quick mock-ups for bench testing, concept evaluation or show and tell; to high-end, high-quality prototypes for lab trials, bench trials, investor review or design freeze evaluation and testing.
Years of combined experience
Our experienced engineers will ask the technical questions you may not have asked yet. If we see an area for improvement for design for manufacture (DFM) we will provide the input up front.
We engage closely with you, brainstorm solutions together, and focus on the critical design elements that matter most. By understanding what you’re trying to achieve technically, clinically, and commercially, we translate intent into a working prototype that supports confident decision-making and smooth progression to the next development stage

Why Prototype with
ICS Medical Devices
Flexible and Responsive
Prototyping is a vital part of the medical device development journey and by partnering with us, you gain a collaborative development team, bridging concept and commercialisation with speed, flexibility, and technical expertise.
Benefits of prototyping with ICS include:
- Direct access to our experienced engineering team for real-time feedback
- Onsite collaboration and brainstorming to accelerate design refinement
- Quick turn prototypes that support faster decision-making
- Seamless integration of complex components like sensors, coils, and bonding elements
- Access to specialised prototyping processes tailored for catheter-based technologies
- Built into our MPI process, which controls how ICS Medical Devices manages products from design to commercial manufacturing.
- Dedicated space and equipment time focused on prototyping

Our Prototyping Process
Collaboration begins at any stage, whether it’s an initial concept or a detailed build-to-print specification. We start off with your input, – anything from an idea or a concept which we can collaborate on, to a fully developed build-to-print specification, – or anywhere in between!
Our dedicated prototyping team will review the requirements and, where feasible and appropriate, provide engineering and DFM input into the Catheter design specification. Our customers value that we are consistent in our rapid, high-standard engagement and input.
There is nothing like seeing your very own idea move from an idea to a physical item. Our skilled technicians and experienced engineers will construct the catheter prototype utilising our class-leading technology and facilities.
The final output is your prototype; your idea in your hands. We can supply the part directly to you and/or we can complete testing in our labs, providing the engineering data back to you. The next stage is to test and iterate until your product is ready for manufacture.
