Endovascular Equipment
BDC Laboratories continues to design and manufacture medical device testing equipment that enables ultimate adaptability, control, and test sample monitoring. In the spirit of this philosophy, BDC Labs offers two radial fatigue test systems for stent testing and stent graft testing. The RDTL-0200 is an optical micrometer based test system that suspends the test samples in air and allows for direct diameter measurement of the mock vessel. In contrast, the RDTI-0100 places the test samples in a completely immersed environment to support the mock vessels when testing large, thoracic diameters or angulated configurations. Both test systems are controlled and monitored with BDC’s Statys RDT validated test software.

Heart Valve / Venous Valve Equipment
BDC’s cardiac valve and venous valve durability test equipment was conceived, designed, and manufactured from the ground-up based on an academic research foundation, and then coupled with the industry’s research and development philosophies. With user programmable waveform excitation, continual real-time monitoring of each test station, individual test station control, and data logging throughout a 600 million cycle test, the VDT-3100 test system addresses existing fatigue test equipment deficiencies. Coupled with the test system is BDC’s Statys VDT validated test software.

Other Equipment
In addition to the radial and valve fatigue test equipment, BDC Labs offers additional test systems to compliment your company’s existing equipment inventory. The LDT-1500 is a linear motion fatigue test system designed for complete versatility allowing assessment of many different technologies. The test system can be supplied either in a basic configuration or with multiple components such as load transducers and a heated bath integrated into the Statys LDT validated software.
Both of BDC Laboratories’ principals possess a doctorate in experimental bio-fluid dynamics, modeling arterial hemodynamics in bench-top models. The PD-1100 is a dual purpose pulse duplicator that can be utilized as a pulsatile pumping source in cardiovascular networks or as a heart simulator in heart valve hydrodynamic performance assessment. The Statys PD control and acquisition software allows for both arbitrary waveform generation while acquiring any pressure and flow data required for your test. Finally, BDC can help construct and validate a complete simulated cardiovascular system for bench-top deployment of your technology and simulated use testing.
