Medical & life-science devices.
Design, human factors, engineering and software for devices and instruments where use error is a safety issue and the surface finish is a hygiene decision, structured to feed your usability files and QMS, not to fight them.
the most demanding subset of our instruments work
how skeelx helps
What we bring to a device program.
Human factors with evidence
Use-error analysis, grip and reach studies with real clinicians and technicians, protocols and documentation designed to feed your usability-engineering file: industrial design and compliance as one process.
Cleanable, durable CMF
Materials and finishes chosen for wipe-down chemistry, autoclave reality and year-three appearance in a working clinic or lab, specified so production can hold them.
Safety-state HMI & software
On-device interfaces designed across normal, degraded and fault states, plus the companion and review software around the device, built for gloves, glare and interruption.
Verification-minded engineering
Engineering with the test plan in view from the first loop: tolerance philosophy, ingress and cycle testing, documentation your quality team can audit.
Accurate technical media
CGI and film built from production CAD: mechanism animations for training, launch assets that stay dimensionally honest to the cleared device.
typical engagements
Where we're usually called in.
- First device from bench science: architecture, form, HF and DFM in one program
- Legacy instrument modernisation: new interface and connectivity, same trusted clinical identity
- Usability evidence gaps closed before a submission window
- Launch and training media built from the engineering data
A straight note on compliance: your regulatory strategy, submissions and QMS remain yours. We design and document so the work drops into that process cleanly, and we won't sign off what testing hasn't supported.
