Rapid Prototyping

From Rapid Prototyping to 2000 Ventilator Assemblies in 2 Months

During the peak demand for ventilator systems, we were entrusted with the development and manufacturing of a critical pump assembly used in ventilators.

The assembly included:

  • POM-C precision plastic components
  • Silicone rubber bellows
  • Aluminium assembly plate
  • Multi-part engineered assembly

This was not a standard production project.

The product design was evolving continuously, with multiple incremental changes from the customer during the development phase. The challenge was not only manufacturing the components, but also supporting extremely fast design iterations while ensuring functionality and assembly reliability.

Our Approach

At Achievo, we worked closely with the customer’s engineering team and established a rapid-response prototyping process.

  • Design revisions were converted into prototypes within hours
  • Multiple iterations were developed and tested continuously
  • Tooling and assembly adjustments were carried out in parallel
  • Cross-functional coordination helped accelerate validation cycles

This collaborative and agile development approach enabled the customer to finalize the pump design successfully under demanding timelines.

Final Outcome

✅ Successful development of the final ventilator pump assembly
✅ Supply of 2000 complete assemblies within 2 months
✅ Reliable performance across multiple production batches
✅ Smooth transition from prototype stage to production execution

Key Learning

In critical applications such as medical devices, success depends not only on manufacturing capability, but also on:

  • Speed of prototyping
  • Flexibility during design evolution
  • Process discipline
  • Ability to manage multi-material assemblies under time pressure

At Achievo, we support OEMs from concept to production across rubber, plastics, metals, and engineered assemblies for critical applications.
