Our Facility

This one facility has everything we need to service your project from a machine shop and 3D printing to a test lab and commercial manufacturing.
Switchback Medical Headquarters
R&D Space
We have a dedicated R&D prototype area where each program has a dedicated space to work on design iterations and prototypes. Additionally we have ample cleanroom space for R&D programs as they progress into more consistent manufacturing and enter the verification and validation stages.
Cleanroom
Switchback has approximately 13,500 sq. ft. of ISO Class 7 Clean Room operations space where we build and package several finished medical devices.
Design Assurance Lab
Our Design Assurance Lab is where we perform all of our design verification testing. This lab is used to develop test methods for evaluating device performance early on. The lab has several equipment capabilities for measuring tensile, leak, burst, simulated use in anatomical models, and your standard visual and dimensional characteristics.
