OUR DESIGN TO MANUFACTURE PROCESS

DETAILED DESIGN COLLABORATION

We begin with quality design. We will work with you in a collaborative process to optimize your design while addressing cost considerations and any physical size constraints. Our detail-oriented team will help you achieve the best possible design.

FAST PROTOTYPING

With the design in hand, we move rapidly to building up a number of prototypes. This is a constant feedback stage where the details are further refined as we move towards the finished product.

FINAL PRODUCT – FULLY DOCUMENTED

Efforts spent in design and prototyping pay off in the final stage as we quickly ramp up to production. By the time the prototypes are fully evaluated, we will be ramping up production to hit the ground running.

EXAMPLE: WHOLE ANIMAL IMAGER

POWER WHERE IT IS NEEDED

We worked with our client to create a uniquely powerful solution for whole animal imaging. It takes significant power to illuminate a whole animal with sufficient photons to capture a fluorescence signal. We were able to deliver the necessary wattage of laser illumination to the sample… and at a cost-effective price.

LIGHT IT UP – PRECISELY

It is not enough to have power; we need to keep the light focused on sample and nothing else. 89 North developed a unique telescopic collimator allowing the field of illumination to vary from 25cm square to 5cm square, while maintaining a uniform illumination.

CLEAN IT UP

To be able to multiplex requires efforts on both the input and output ends of the device. 89 North’s Laser Diode Illuminator provided lots of power in very discrete wavelengths to allow for the widest possible spectral gaps to capture the emission signal. Partnering with our partner company, Chroma Technology, we could provide the optimal optical filters to complete the system.
