Moon Surgical meets tight clinical study deadlines

Moon Surgical is developing a next-generation surgical robot. They needed three different prototypes of robot stations to conduct clinical studies to determine the most appropriate size and functionality for procedures. The impending clinical study deadline meant that the rapid design and deployment of these prototypes were paramount.

Moon Surgical uses two robotic arms to help surgeons conduct their procedures. These robots need to be mounted on stations with motorized translation stages that are easily maneuverable to allow them to be positioned according to the surgeon’s preference. Once achieved, the stations then must be immobilized for the procedure.

Moon Surgical ordered their prototypes and the products were delivered within 8 days. Vention’s modular parts and custom assembly instructions meant that deployment thereafter was fast and simple.

Moon Surgical was able to beat its 8-week deadline and proceed with Verification & Validation (V&V) testing ahead of their clinical studies. Surgeons will now have full autonomy over the positioning of the robotic arms during surgery, which helps them achieve the best possible outcomes for their patients.
