A Form3 Case Study
Stemcell Technologies Canada Inc. required support for their industrial design efforts to innovate and overcome stringent manufacturing constraints for their flagship CellPore device, which houses proprietary Cell Squeeze® technology. The challenge was to create a high-quality, safe, and serviceable product that could be easily operated in a lab setting while accurately meeting cost targets. Form3 provided industrial and mechanical design services to address this.
Form3's solution focused on form, ergonomics, and user experience, resulting in a device easily operated within a biosafety cabinet with features to enhance technician safety and cleanability. The design included a safety shield, a discretely housed gas cylinder, a maintenance hatch, and a custom HD touchscreen. The efforts of Form3 successfully met Stemcell Technologies' manufacturing and business goals, contributing to a long-term relationship and the celebrated success of the new CellPore device.
