Bringing new orthopedic cutting tools and instruments to market is hard enough. Throw in unexpected product performance issues or delays during manufacturing scale-up and the path grows even more difficult. But for many orthopedic companies, that’s exactly where things go off track.

Whether it’s poor tolerancing or designs that don’t translate well to production, the cost of misalignment between engineering and manufacturing can be significant.

Common NPI Pain Points:

  • Designs that aren’t manufacturable at scale
  • Poor communication between internal teams and external vendors
  • Missed deadlines due to product rework and late-stage redesigns
  • Suppliers who say “yes” but then struggle to deliver later

At Marmon Medical Manufacturing, we help our orthopedic partners prevent these issues by getting involved earlier in the product development process. We offer true Design for Manufacturability (DFM) insight that’s rooted in orthopedic cutting tool and instrument expertise and more than three decades of experience.

Get It Right the First Time.

1. Early-stage engineering input

We work alongside your design and development teams from the start; reviewing drawings, tolerances, and material selections to ensure your cutting tool or instrument can be manufactured reliably and efficiently.

2. Rapid prototyping and iterative testing

Need to move quickly? We offer agile prototype manufacturing supported by the same process controls used in full-scale production. So what you see in testing is what you’ll get at launch.

3. Deep category expertise

Unlike larger orthopedic suppliers, we specialize in orthopedic cutting tools and instruments. Our engineers have seen what works, and what doesn’t. We bring that knowledge to every NPI program we support.

Bottom Line:
The fastest way to market isn’t skipping steps. It’s working with a strategic partner who knows how to build it right from day one. At Marmon Medical Manufacturing, we help orthopedic companies launch with confidence by resolving manufacturing issues before they become costly delays.
