Modernizing Medical Device Design with Cloud-Native CAD
From scalpels to surgical robotics, Onshape helps medical teams move faster, collaborate securely, and deliver life-changing devices without file-based friction.
3D CAD for Innovation in MedTech
Onshape empowers medical device companies to rapidly iterate, maintain design control, and collaborate across distributed teams – all in a secure, browser-based platform. No installs, no IT overhead – just better design, seamless approvals, and faster outcomes.
Onshape’s Role in Modern MedTech Development
Built-In Design Control for Regulated Workflows
Onshape’s built-in version control and release management help medical device teams stay compliant without extra tools. Every change is tracked automatically, supporting FDA and documentation requirements. Delta Development relies on this for efficient approvals.

Real-Time Collaboration Across Cross-Functional Teams
Medical design often requires input from engineers, clinicians, and partners in different locations. Loop Medical uses Onshape’s real-time collaboration tools to keep everyone aligned – accelerating feedback and reducing time-to-decision without emailing files.

Seamless Iteration for Faster Prototyping
Exploring multiple design ideas is critical in medtech. Onshape’s branching and merging tools let teams test concepts without compromising the main design. Meter leverages this to rapidly iterate and move confidently toward production.

Secure, Scalable Access From Anywhere
Whether working with remote engineers or outside consultants, Onshape makes it easy to share designs securely – no installs or license juggling. Open Bionics uses Onshape to collaborate globally while protecting sensitive IP.

Stable by Design, Proven in Practice
For Occuity, every hour counts when developing breakthrough medical devices. With Onshape, they avoid crashes and file-related delays – saving at least 30 engineering days each year. With built-in version control and a rock-solid cloud platform, Onshape delivers the stability fast-moving teams rely on.

Design Securely with Confidence
Onshape delivers security that meets the rigorous demands of medical device development. All design data is encrypted using AES‑256 encryption at rest and protected in transit with TLS v1.2 or higher. Onshape is SOC 2 Type II certified, with regular third-party audits. Teams benefit from full administrative control over user permissions, with the ability to instantly revoke access when needed. Support for two-factor authentication, SSO and SAML integration, and detailed audit trails helps ensure traceability, key for FDA and ISO 13485 compliance efforts. And because there are no local files to lose or duplicate, Onshape provides a secure, traceable, and compliant environment without traditional IT burden.
