Chennai: Detroit Engineered Products (DEP), a US-based company has developed a unique stent rolling tool within its proprietary CAE platform, DEP MeshWorks. This can save companies significant time in their design process of stents. According to a press release, MeshWorks with its fully customizable stent rolling and stent mesh parameterization tools, offers a platform for creating high-quality numerical models as input towards stent performance evaluation and optimization.
The tool removes a step from the traditional process of stent design and introduces a faster time-saving method for designing. In the new process developed by DEP, as soon as the 2D line data is available, it can be directly taken into MeshWorks and converted directly into a 3D Mesh data. Speaking on the latest development, chief innovation officer at DEP, Karthik Shankaran said, “This tool from MeshWorks will not only help companies save time as they use it for meshing and virtual validation, but will help our customers in the area of preparing regulatory and non regulatory virtual validation reports for FDA before clinical trials as well.”
