Core competency in manufacturing engineering — intelligent solutions for surgical instruments from Erchinger AG Tuttlingen. As an experienced production service provider and OEM contract manufacturer, we offer bespoke solutions for the technical optimisation, production and assembly of medical instruments. Our expertise begins not just at the machine — but already at the manufacturing-engineering development of your requirements.
We see manufacturing preparation as a holistic process. From the technical review of your concepts through reverse engineering to series-ready optimisation, our experienced technicians support your project with the highest level of commitment. Precise implementation of your specifications for clinical use always remains the focus.
Whether you are delivering a new product or want to optimise an existing instrument from a manufacturing standpoint — we deliver solutions that convince both technically and economically. As an experienced production service provider and OEM contract manufacturer for surgical instruments, Erchinger AG in Tuttlingen offers bespoke solutions for the technical optimisation, production and assembly of medical instruments.
"Our expertise begins not just at the machine — but already at the manufacturing-engineering development of your requirements."
From technical review to series-ready optimisation — manufacturing engineering under one roof.
From technical consulting to a CAD-based design solution — the key services along the way.
It starts with technical consulting and a feasibility assessment of your concept, complemented by support in clarifying functional and design requirements. Our expertise thus begins even before the actual design work — not just at the machine.
The manufacturing-engineering implementation of surgical instruments follows your specification — including design optimisation for existing products. Our experienced technicians support this step with the highest level of commitment, always with a focus on the precise implementation of your specifications for clinical use.
Next comes the creation of CAD-based design solutions — for the prototype, and already with the later series model in mind. Our modern machinery enables the fast, cost-effective transformation of your requirements into precise surgical instruments.
In parallel, we support you with approval and documentation, for example to MDR requirements — including DHR- and DMR-based manufacturing records. This keeps every manufacturing step fully traceable and your instrument documented to standard.
Three foundations of our development expertise that run through every project — from the first technical consultation to the fully assembled series. Flip the cards for more detail.

Our specialists have in-depth knowledge of surgical instrument technology — particularly in open surgery, spinal surgery and proctology. By combining high qualifications, years of experience and technological innovation, we develop instruments that meet the demands of everyday clinical use. This specialist depth feeds directly into every technical consultation, every feasibility assessment and every design optimisation we carry out for our customers.
We support your project through to final assembly and beyond. At Erchinger AG, service does not end with the technical drawing.
The most important questions about our manufacturing engineering — from the first feasibility assessment to documentation to MDR requirements.
As an OEM contract manufacturer, Erchinger offers bespoke solutions for the technical optimisation, production and assembly of medical instruments. This expertise begins at the manufacturing-engineering development of your requirements, not just on the shop floor.
These include technical consulting and feasibility assessment, support with functional and design requirements, manufacturing-engineering implementation to customer specification, design optimisation of existing products, CAD-based design solutions for prototypes and series models, and support with approval and documentation to MDR requirements.
Erchinger's modern machinery and high in-house manufacturing depth enable the fast, cost-effective transformation of requirements into precise surgical instruments — based on existing documentation or through the creation of technical manufacturing documentation to customer specification.
