LIVE WEBINAR

Unlocking Design Freedom for Rapid Iteration with Laser Microfabricated Hypotubes: Featuring Sublime Laser

Join us for an interactive, engineer-focused webinar where innovation meets precision, built for R&D and catheter design teams navigating early-stage development, this session will show how to achieve advanced design features and reduce prototyping cycles. 

In this technical deep dive, Todd Turnlund, CEO of Sublime Laser, will demonstrate how the right combination of manufacturing capabilities, hypotube/wire starting geometry, and material can create designs for almost any application. 

  • Speakers: Todd Turnlund, CEO, Sublime Laser
  • Chamfr Moderators: Katie Karmelek (Co-founder) & Steve Maxson (VP of Growth)
  • Date: Thursday, September 18th
  • Time: 1pm ET
  • Duration: 60 minutes (with interactive Q&A)

You’ll get a view of laser-cut hypotubes, see a live part demo, and discover how Sublime’s unique laser-switching capability can elevate your catheter-based device performance. 

What you’ll learn about:

The process capabilities and tradeoffs are of femtosecond vs. fiber lasers (used for precision cuts like interrupted spiral or brickworks patterns)

How to select the right laser process based on your device’s design geometry. 

Why material choice (e.g., stainless steel or nitinol) impacts the required laser manufacturing process. 

How Sublime Laser switches between laser types to optimize functionality and cut quality. 

Live cutting demo of parts found on Chamfr.

Sourcing options for prototyping – quick turn custom solutions and off the shelf solutions from Chamfr with 30 SKUs available for rapid delivery.
