Packaging services support medical device makers
Avo Photonics, provider of optical and RF packaging solutions, has recently focused its services to support medical product suppliers.
The feature article also notes that "Avo Photonics is unique in its combination of high-level engineering support and prototype-to-production facility capabilities".
"Its customers have a one-stop-shop to see their visions realised".
"We offer three distinct services: design, prototyping, and production, all for one specific field: photonics", said Dr Joseph Dallas President and Chief Operating Officer for Avo Photonics and former Deputy-Director of NASA's Space Lidar Technology centre (SLTC).
"With the entire shop set up as a closed-loop production facility, we can take a design from conception through full-scale production of hand-crafted, high-tech parts".
"Furthermore, we are purely a specialty service firm that does not manufacture its own products, which assures that our customers' intellectual property is never compromised".
Avo Photonics routinely follows the classic engineering product development milestones: systems requirement review (SRR), preliminary design review (PDR), and critical design review (CDR).
These easily-tracked metrics provide a disciplined framework during the creation of designs, engineering models, engineering test units, and flight/ground-based components and systems.
High quality product performance, reliability, and cost control are assured.
Avo Photonics' technical team consists of former NASA engineers, as well as engineers experienced in production for federal programs.
All Avo Photonics employees are US citizens and its manufacturing facility is located just outside of Philadelphia, less than two hours by car or train from the Washington DC area and major federal technology sites, including the NRL, NASA, NIH and NSA.
