A studio service

Surgical hardware and devices, rigged for clinical clarity.

Medical hardware, surgical robotic wrists, laparoscopic instruments and diagnostic gantries modelled from engineering drawings and rigged in Blender. Articulation driven by mechanical constraints, built for investor presentations, clinical training, and regulatory visualization.

Articulated mechanical rig controls in Blender

N° 01Clinical engineering

Engineering accuracy for healthcare hardware

Medical devices demand absolute mechanical fidelity. Whether explaining a multi-axis surgical wrist, an auto-injector spring mechanism, or a rotating CT gantry, the 3D rig behaves as the medical device was engineered to move.

Every linkage, pulley, and hinge is bound by realistic travel limits, preventing clipping and maintaining physical plausibility.

01

Multi-pulley & cable articulation

Endoscopic and laparoscopic instrument wrists rigged with constraint-driven cable deflection.

02

Spring-loaded drug delivery

Plunger release, safety interlocks, and dosage dial mechanisms rigged with functional springs.

03

Clean, clinical aesthetic

Components built cleanly for both photorealistic clinical rendering and clear technical schematic cutaways.

N° 02Scope

Hardware and mechanisms, not biological tissue

We specialize strictly in the mechanical hardware, device articulation, and diagnostic equipment. We do not take on character deformation, surgical gore, or organic tissue simulation.

N° 03Investment

What it costs

Rig test

$500

One assembly rigged on a model you supply — a suspension corner, a door, a mechanism — returned in your own file.

  • One assembly of your choosing, rigged
  • Controls, limits and constraints as in the full job
  • A written assessment of whether the rest is riggable
  • Your own file back, not a copy
  • About a week
Start with a test

Rigging only

$3,000

You supply the model. We rig it: controls, constraints, working mechanism.

  • Full mechanical rig
  • Controls for wheels, steering, doors and panels
  • Suspension and internal moving parts
  • Control scheme documented
  • About one month from a usable model

The full build

Modelled and rigged

$6,000

Built from manufacturer blueprints, then rigged. The internals are modelled as components — which is where both the accuracy and the timeline come from.

  • Modelled from manufacturer blueprints
  • Internal components built, not implied
  • Full mechanical rig on top
  • Control scheme documented
  • Six to twelve months, depending on the subject

N° 04Questions

The answers we give most often.

Do you animate surgical procedures or human anatomy?
No. We specialize strictly in the mechanical hardware, device articulation, and surgical instruments. We do not do organic tissue deformation or clinical anatomy.
What do we receive?
The fully rigged .blend file with custom control shapes, locked constraint ranges, and a written control scheme.

Send the device drawings.

Share your engineering files and presentation timeline. We will reply with a clear scope and a fixed price.

Both full figures are per vehicle. The gap between a month and a year is the difference between rigging something that exists and building it from drawings first. Send what you have and we will tell you which one you are asking for.

The vehicles shown are demonstration builds made in-house to show the craft — not client commissions. Each was modelled and rigged from manufacturer blueprints.
