Innovation M2 partners with passionate companies to solve complex challenges and deliver whole and elegant solutions. Working in the fields of healthcare technologies and in industries with high regulatory and technical requirements, Innovation M2 offers multiple services: development of turnkey products, mechanical design, electronic design, firmware programming, industrial design (eligible for credit of tax), simulation, multiple studies and analyzes (human factors, geometric tolerancing, normative analysis, finite elements), tests and validation, prototyping and small batch production.
We regularly work on projects funded through government programs: Industrial Research Assistance Program (IRAP), Marketing and Export Support Program (PSCE), Design Tax Credit, SR&ED tax credits.
Our seasoned team supporting the solutions, made up of engineers, industrial designers, project leaders, and technicians, has enabled the emergence of many medical devices in recent years. Our team is therefore accustomed to working according to the ISO 13845 normative framework (Medical devices — Quality management systems — Requirements for regulatory purposes)
Innovation M2 success is based on its five core values: collaboration, transparency, autonomy, passion, and commitment.

3D Printing - FDM - Design Guidelines
At first glance, fused deposition modeling printing (FDM) seems quite simple. Indeed, almost all geometries can be manufactured by FDM. However, it is possible to optimize the design of a part in order to have a good finish, to avoid "post-processing" and to keep a desired geometry.

3D Printing - FDM - Filament Choice
Since the launch of the first 3D printer by Stratasys, only offering, at the time, ABS as a printing material, the plastic filament market has grown to now offer dozens of different materials. This expanded offering gives many opportunities and each filament can have its advantages and downsides depending on the purpose of the produced part. This article presents some filaments and their characteristics.

3D Printing - FDM - Desktop Printer
Fused deposition modeling, better known by the acronym FDM, is the most recognized additive manufacturing process. This "bit of history" blog post highlights the evolution of the desktop 3D printer in corporate engineering offices. We therefore focus on machines with a smaller form factor and on innovations making it possible to reduce acquisition cost.
