U-Handle Steerable
U-Handle Steerable – Universal Catheter Actuator Handle for Medical Device Testing
Accelerate your catheter delivery system prototyping with the U-Handle Steerable, a modular, off-the-shelf actuator handle engineered for rapid testing and validation of implant delivery systems.
Designed for R&D engineers working on steerable catheters, transcatheter delivery systems, or medical device prototyping, the U-Handle Steerable eliminates the need to design and manufacture a custom handle for early testing. It allows you to focus on clinical functionality instead of technical constraints.
🔧 Key Features:
Dual actuator system: front and back actuator with predefined strokes (120 mm, 100 mm, or 80 mm), enabling precise control for testing delivery mechanisms.
Steerability ready: the front actuator can be connected to a steerable catheter section for advanced navigation simulations.
Compatible tubing sizes: supports catheter shafts from 4 Fr to 36 Fr, covering a wide range of interventional device use cases.
Guidewire channel: optional central tube for guidewire integration, connectable at the rear of the handle.
Robust and credible design: sleek body with precision 3D-printed parts — perfect for functional testing and preclinical demonstrations.
📦 What’s in the box?
The U-Handle Steerable is shipped as a modular DIY kit. The actuator housing and components are pre-assembled; users only need to install the shafts based on their specifications. Clear instructions are provided for fast assembly.
⚡ Fast & Configurable:
Multiple configurations available with lead times under 7 days.
Custom actuator setups possible upon request.
