The COVID-19 pandemic tested global health care capabilities. Supply chains were disrupted, requiring local agile solutions for certified medical devices. Many companies are collaborating with their local governments to provide critical medical devices such as ventilator components, ICU critical parts, face shields, face mask filters, etc., to fight the shortages. In this context, a collaborative R&D consortium was created in March 2020 to develop certified medical devices and ramp up mass production in North America and Europe. This consortium included Aenium Engineering and Burloak Technologies, who worked closely with EOS’ Additive Minds applied engineering team, the Canadian and Spanish health authorities and hospitals, as well as a Spanish genomic laboratory (ITALCyL).
