What Resolution Medical does

Resolution Medical is a Fridley, Minnesota-based contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) for the medical device industry, founded in 2012 and operating with 240+ employees across U.S. and Netherlands sites. The company provides end-to-end services spanning concept development, bio-simulation testing, new product introduction (NPI), and commercial-scale manufacturing for complex Class II and III medical devices. Its customer base ranges from individual physicians with early-stage concepts to the world's largest medical device OEMs, served across five primary therapeutic verticals: structural heart, neuromodulation, cardiology and vascular, electrophysiology, and heart failure, with additional presence in ENT, neurology, and urology.

The technology stack is organized around four interconnected capability areas. Concept & Product Development delivers iterative engineering from conception through first-in-human clinical studies. BioSimulators & Services leverages a proprietary platform family acquired via the 2022 purchase of LifeTec Group — including Cardiac BioSim, PhysioHeart, VAscular BIOreactor, BioLiver, and Heart Valve Assessment — that mimics in-vivo conditions without animal models and is offered on lease, purchase, or training terms. NPI provides structured technology transfer including design-for-manufacturing, process development, supplier optimization, and verification/validation. Manufacturing & Finished Device covers end-to-end production with specialized clean rooms, sterile packaging, labeling, and distribution. Underlying expertise areas include laser cutting and welding, molding with quick-change tooling, additive manufacturing (flagship Carbon 3D partnership alongside Stratasys, Formlabs, and MakerBots), and Nitinol processing for stents, guidewires, and instruments. The company is ISO 13485:2016 certified with FDA-aligned QMS.

Resolution Medical generates revenue through B2B professional services and contract manufacturing — engineering services, prototyping fees, NPI process fees, and manufacturing production contracts — under a quote-based pricing model typical of medical device CDMOs. Distribution is entirely direct, with dedicated program managers and engineering teams assigned per customer project. The company was owned by Arcline Investment Management from founding in 2012 until its March 2026 acquisition by Resonetics, a portfolio company of The Carlyle Group. Operationally, Resolution Medical now operates as a subsidiary under the Resonetics brand, with headquarters in Fridley, MN and engineering/R&D operations in Eindhoven, Netherlands through its wholly-owned LifeTec BioSim subsidiary.
