CASE STUDY: ORTHOPEDIC SURGICAL BONE DRILL 

Quartus engineers designed and manufactured a revolutionary, FDA Certified smart drill for use in orthopedic surgery, enabling improved patient outcomes in the more common orthopedic surgical procedures. The first-of-its-kind design was able to reduce drill bit plunge and provide data for safe and accurate screw placement. Feedback sensors in the drill provide real-time data to the surgeon via an easy-to-read Graphical User Interface (GUI).  Surgeons have visual confirmation of various measurements (torque, drill depth, and bone density) to guide their procedural decisions.  Quartus provided the complete mechanical, industrial, electrical, software, and firmware design information for submission to the FDA for the 510(k) Premarket Notification.
