Precision CNC Machining for Medical Device Teams

Medical device companies in Seattle need parts that are exact, clean, and fully documented. A surgical instrument that's 0.003 inches off can fail in the field. We machine titanium, 316L stainless, PEEK, and medical-grade aluminum to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches. Every medical order ships with a CMM inspection report, material certs, and documentation your quality team can use.

1

Biocompatible Materials

We source and machine titanium Grade 23 ELI, 316L stainless, and PEEK — all with full material certs and traceability.

2

Tight Tolerances

We hold ±0.001" on general features and ±0.0005" on critical bores, tapers, and mating surfaces. Every part is CMM verified.

3

Full Documentation

Dimensional inspection reports, material certs, passivation certs — whatever your quality plan requires, we provide it.

Why RivCut

Built for Medical Device Teams

Not every CNC shop understands what medical teams need. Here's how we're different.

Medical-Grade Documentation

Every medical order ships with a dimensional inspection report, material cert, and process records. We structure our paperwork to meet ISO 13485 supplier requirements.

Ultra-Clean Surface Finishes

We achieve Ra 32, 16, and 8 µin on titanium and stainless. We also offer electropolishing and passivation per ASTM A967. Clean surfaces mean your parts can be sterilized.

Full Part Traceability

Every part gets a unique job number. We track material heat numbers, machine programs, and operator sign-offs. If your FDA auditor asks for records 5 years from now, we have them.

Fast R&D Turnaround

Most prototype orders ship in 5 to 7 business days. Need it faster? Rush is available — tell us your deadline.

Yes. RivCut is ISO 13485 certified. That cert covers quality management for medical devices. Many Seattle-area device makers, including companies near the South Lake Union biotech corridor, require it before placing orders. It means we follow strict process controls, keep detailed records, and track every part we make for you.
We machine titanium, stainless steel, PEEK, and aluminum for medical parts. Seattle companies building surgical tools, implants, or diagnostic equipment use all of these. We source medical-grade bar stock from certified suppliers and keep material certs on file. You get the right material and the paperwork to prove it.
We hold tolerances as tight as plus or minus 0.0002 inches. That level matters for parts like bone screws, catheter components, and sensor housings. Seattle device makers working under FDA design controls often need that precision. We verify every critical dimension with calibrated CMM equipment and share the inspection report with you.
Standard lead time runs five to ten business days. Rush orders can finish in two to three days. Seattle buyers near the University District or Eastside medical campuses often need fast prototypes for design reviews. Call us with your timeline. We will tell you honestly if we can hit your date.
We provide full documentation with every order. That includes material certs, first article inspection reports, Certificate of Conformance, and dimensional reports. Seattle device companies going through 510k or PMA submissions need this paperwork trail. We build it into every job automatically. You do not need to ask for it each time.
Yes, and there are real advantages to keeping it local. You get faster shipping, easier communication, and no customs delays. Seattle has a strong device manufacturing base, with companies in Redmond, Bothell, and Bellevue relying on local shops. RivCut is close by, so you can visit, review parts in person, and move faster.
