With products that have a direct impact on the quality of people's lives, the medical technology industry depends on reliable metrology devices. Pratt and Whitney understand that this confidence can only be assured through accuracy measurement. With the aid of these technologies, modern surgery has become less invasive and more effective. Procedures that once required extended recovery times—such as the repair of a torn meniscus—can now be performed in a single afternoon, allowing patients to return to normal activity much more quickly. That confidence can only be achieved through accurate, reliable measurement. Medical devices and instruments must meet stringent hygiene, safety, and performance standards while adhering to tight dimensional tolerances. From automated drug delivery systems and minimally invasive surgical tools to robotic-assisted procedures and microscale components, precise measurement is essential throughout design, manufacturing, and quality control.

Pratt & Whitney instruments and gages are used by customers like Howmedica, ZimVie, Abbott Labs, Saint Jude Medical, Covidien, Zest Dental Solutions, Arthrex Manufacturing, Medtronic Corporation, Boston Scientific, DePuy Synthes, Zimmer Biomet, Hospira, GE Medical, Siemens Health, Baxter, Danaher, Merit Medical, Steris, Moog, Medtronic and Stryker Corporation.
