OEM ultrasound product development
Develop an OEM ultrasound product with ALEVA through a project-specific engineering scope. Connect probe interfaces, acquisition electronics, beamforming, embedded software and enclosure requirements before committing to a prototype. Agree responsibilities, measurable acceptance criteria and the records needed for the next design or manufacturing decision.
We are the engineering team behind other companies' products.Every product we help build ends up in someone’s hands — at someone’s bedside.
Coordinated ultrasound engineering
Agree the engineering disciplines, interfaces and responsibilities for the project so that architecture, electronics and software can be developed together.
Industrial design
Product form, ergonomics, enclosures and user experience — designed to feel premium and clinical while remaining practical to manufacture and service.
Electronics & embedded systems
Schematic and PCB design, analog front ends, power and embedded firmware, scoped against the project's agreed requirements and acceptance criteria.
Ultrasound system architecture
End-to-end system design — from transducer interface and acquisition through processing pipeline to display and connectivity.
FPGA & parallel beamformer development
FPGA beamforming architecture for the project's agreed channel configuration, imaging outputs and processing requirements.
AI-assisted imaging software
Define the required image-processing and measurement functions, intended use and performance acceptance criteria for the project.
Turnkey product development
Agree a coordinated development program for the medical device project, from requirements through the specified engineering and manufacturing-handover milestones.
From first sketch to manufacturing planning
Discuss the industrial-design and mechanical-engineering scope: sketches, ergonomic studies, CAD, enclosure design, functional prototypes and manufacturing handover. Agree deliverables, cost targets and responsibilities for each stage.
-
Sketch → CAD → prototype → production
Agree responsibility for product form and interfaces from the initial concept through manufacturing handover.
-
Designed for clinic and factory
Ergonomics, enclosures and user experience that feel premium and clinical, and stay practical to build and service.
-
Experienced engineers, competitive cost
Senior product engineers delivering a high standard at a cost that works for real device budgets.
SLA, SLS and CNC prototyping — scoped to the project
Discuss SLA and SLS 3D printing, CNC machining and low-volume builds for the project's mechanical parts and enclosures. Agree materials, tolerances, quantities, finishing and color acceptance criteria, together with who performs each manufacturing step.
-
SLA & SLS 3D printing
Fine-detail, functional prototypes in the materials your design needs.
-
CNC machining
Precision metal and plastic parts, tooling and fixtures.
-
Cost-effective low volume
Short, high-mix runs that make small quantities economical to produce.
-
Color-matched delivery
Agree the required color code, finishing and assembly acceptance criteria.
Ultrasound beamformer boards — FPGA and parallel processing
Define the ultrasound beamformer-board scope, including FPGA architecture, receive processing and the required channel configuration and frame-rate targets. Agree prototype, board-supply and manufacturing responsibilities, along with the engineering tests for each stage. Explore our FPGA + GPU beamformer →
-
FPGA beamformer boards
Parallel receive processing scoped to the project's agreed channel configuration and frame-rate targets.
-
Full electronics stack
Schematic, PCB, analog front ends, power and firmware within the agreed engineering scope.
-
Design, build and supply
Board supply and repeat-production responsibilities are agreed for each project.
-
Fast hardware prototyping
Working board prototypes for engineering tests against agreed requirements before a volume-production decision.
From concept to production
A structured development path that keeps engineering, quality and manufacturing aligned at every stage.
Research
Understanding the clinical need, the technical constraints and the state of the art before a line of design is drawn.
Concept
Turning the need into concepts and requirements — what the product must do, and the trade-offs that will define it.
Architecture
System architecture across acoustics, electronics, FPGA, software and mechanics — the blueprint everything else follows.
Prototype
Industrial design, electronics, firmware and software built into working prototypes that prove the concept in hardware.
Verification
Integration, imaging tuning, testing and design verification — confirming the product does what it was specified to do.
Manufacturing
Design for manufacturing, pilot builds, testing and calibration, and the transfer into production.
Regulatory SupportRoadmap
Agree the project's engineering-documentation deliverables and allocation of regulatory responsibilities before development. See our roadmap.
Commercialization
Supporting the transition to market and the product's ongoing lifecycle — because our partnership doesn't end at launch.
Coordinated ultrasound imaging engineering
Acoustic interfaces, acquisition, beamforming and imaging software must be considered together. Define their interfaces and acceptance criteria within the agreed development scope.
-
Deep ultrasound specialization
Beamforming, transducers and imaging pipelines are our core, not a side capability.
-
Modern, AI-driven engineering
Experienced hardware engineering combined with current AI and software methods.
-
One partner, full accountability
Fewer handoffs, clearer ownership, and a direct line from design to production.
Have a product in mind?
Tell us what you're trying to build. We'll help you scope the engineering, the imaging and the path to manufacturing. See our detailed OEM ultrasound design & manufacturing overview, including project-specific engineering documentation and the allocation of regulatory responsibilities. Engineering records do not establish finished-device clearance, certification or conformity.
Compare ultrasound OEM and ODM development models before defining your product scope and ownership requirements.
What to agree with an ultrasound OEM development company
Requirements
Define what your team already owns, what must be developed and which interfaces must remain compatible. Identify the intended application, target host, required outputs and constraints. Assign an owner and acceptance criterion to each deliverable.
Verification evidence
Connect each requirement to a design revision, test method, result and review decision. Record the prototype, firmware, software and test configuration so a later build can be compared. Keep unresolved items visible; a successful demonstration does not by itself establish production readiness.
Deliverables and handover
Agree the released design files, interface records, test procedures and build instructions required for transfer. Define ownership, third-party dependencies, change control and support boundaries. Separate prototype acceptance, pilot preparation and repeat supply in the agreement.

OEM ultrasound questions
What does OEM ultrasound mean?
OEM ultrasound describes components or engineering integrated into another company’s branded ultrasound product. The scope can cover a subsystem or a coordinated device-development program.
What can an OEM development program include?
Agree the scope for the project: probe and transducer engineering, imaging electronics, FPGA/GPU processing, software, enclosure design, verification records and manufacturing transfer.
How are custom configurations and regulatory responsibilities agreed?
Define the intended use, interfaces, required imaging outputs, acceptance criteria and deliverables before development. Engineering documentation can support a submission; it does not establish finished-device clearance or certification.
