Sharps Expertise for the Devices that Advance Patient Outcomes

From specialized drug delivery needles to custom surgical blades, Cadence brings decades of sharps manufacturing experience to complex medical device applications.

A needle or blade may be a small part of a medical device, but its design, geometry, surface finish, and manufacturing consistency are critical to meeting the requirements of the finished device.

Cadence has been manufacturing custom blades and needles since its founding as Specialty Blades in 1985. Today, that experience supports MedTech and Pharma OEMs developing advanced drug delivery systems, surgical instruments, diagnostic devices, and sensing technologies.

Many applications require specialized geometries, unique configurations, or manufacturing processes tailored to specific device designs. Cadence combines specialized sharpening and grinding processes with engineering expertise to manufacture custom sharps for demanding applications.

Our manufacturing expertise extends beyond needles and blades. Cadence supports a broad range of medical technologies, including diagnostic and sensing devices and wearable drug delivery systems. With capabilities spanning precision metal manufacturing, plastic injection molding, sub-assembly, finished device assembly, packaging, and sterilization management, we help OEMs address manufacturing requirements from individual components through finished devices.

For MedTech and Pharma companies developing increasingly complex products, this breadth of expertise offers the opportunity to bring multiple manufacturing needs together with one partner. Cadence combines a long history of sharps expertise with broad manufacturing capabilities to help OEMs bring their next medical device to market.
