Chamfr Blog: Technical Insights for Medical Device R&D Engineers

Midwest Interventional Systems just brought 350+ catheter components to Chamfr, including off-the-shelf and quick-turn steerable handles and shafts, balloons, extrusion tubing, and more. Designed for system-level modularity, this portfolio lets R&D teams mix and match parts to build and iterate full catheter systems faster.

Achieving clean, precise features in today’s laser-cut hypotubes can lead to complex challenges, especially with thin walls, tight tolerances, and intricate geometries. In this sponsored blog post, Sublime Laser helps R&D engineers select the right laser type, material, and cut pattern to optimize manufacturability and precision in their medical device designs.

As catheter systems evolve and global PFAS regulations tighten, R&D teams are rethinking their materials strategies to balance performance and compliance. In this sponsored blog post, Dynaflex Technologies shares how EverGlide+, a PFAS-free, sterilization-stable liner platform, enhances bonding, durability, and reliability in next-gen catheters.

Now available on Chamfr, Xtruline’s polymer tubing and marker bands support faster catheter development and flexible prototyping. With 17 SKUs in stock, including materials like Pebax, Nylon, and PTFE, engineers can reduce sourcing delays and build with confidence.

Need implantable power without the long lead times? In this sponsored blog post, Resonetics shares how off-the-shelf medical batteries help MedTech teams prototype faster, reduce risk, and eliminate custom development delays. These pre-qualified batteries are engineered for life-sustaining performance and ready to ship.
