Gas-powered auto-injector framework
Modular auto-injector platform using a compressed-gas microcylinder drive to deliver high-viscosity and high-volume biologics with silent, low-impact actuation.
Gas-powered fluid injector framework
Disposable, self-powered syringe driver with sub-microliter dose tracking, configurable flow rates and smart-device connectivity for real-time dose monitoring.
Gas injector framework for therapeutic gas delivery
Single-use devices that deliver high-purity medical gases or mixed gas blends from valved microcylinders; designed for applications including intraocular tamponades and respiratory therapies.
Implant delivery framework (single-use inserters)
Framework for single-use, automated implant insertion devices with configurable forces, on-demand motion control and position monitoring for precision surgical placement.
Gas power test kit
Development kit for designers and engineers to evaluate performance characteristics of compressed-gas microcylinder power systems, including opening force, delivery consistency and noise/impact comparisons to spring systems.
Altaviz Auto-Injector Platform
A simple, two-step auto-injector platform powered by a compressed gas Picocyl cylinder designed to deliver high-viscosity biologics silently and gently.
