01 / Catheter & Delivery Systems

Catheter Delivery Systems
for Medical Devices

Cordica designs and manufactures steerable and deflectable catheter delivery systems in house, from extrusion and reinforcement through lumen lining, actuation, and finished assembly.

02 / System Architecture

A catheter isn't a single component. It's a system.

Distal

Distal tip forming, marker-band attachment, and nitinol or other component integration where the program requires it.

Illustrative architecture only. Components and construction vary by program.

03 / System Types

Built around the system the device requires.

  • 05Reflow processing

Process selection depends on the device architecture. Not every process is used in every catheter or delivery system.

05 / Applications

System architecture changes with the therapy.

06 / From Development to Production

Core catheter capabilities from prototypes to full-scale production.

Development, testing, and manufacturing support are connected according to the needs of each program.

  1. 01

    Develop

    Device architecture, component requirements, materials, and manufacturability are considered together.

  2. 02

    Build

    Extrusion, reinforced shaft construction, catheter components, steering, bonding, and assembly are brought into the build.

  3. 03

    Verify

    Testing, design-verification, and validation support connect with Catalyst and the needs of the program.

  4. 04

    Scale

    The developed process transfers into repeatable production and finished-device manufacturing.

07 / Connected Capabilities

The system reaches beyond the shaft.

01

Precision Extrusion

Single and complex multi-lumen tubing, balloon tubing, tapered constructions, and overjacketed shaft architectures.

02

Advanced Materials

Material selection and compounded-polymer expertise connected with geometry and downstream processing.

03

Design & Development

Engineering, prototyping, verification, validation, and product-realization support.

04

Manufacturing & Assembly

Subassembly integration and finished-device manufacturing carried into repeatable production.

05

Cleanroom Molding

Molded components, inserts, and overmolded interfaces integrated where the system requires them.

08 / Production Context

Catheter capability in real production environments.
