Diversified Plastics, Inc. Manufactures Plastic Parts for Endogenex, Reducing the Time to Start Clinical Trials

Endogenex is an innovative endoscopic medical device to help improve the lives of patients with type 2 diabetes

Headquartered in Plymouth, Minn., Endogenex, Inc. has developed a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure to help patients with type 2 diabetes regain control of their blood glucose levels. The procedure uses the Endogenex medical device for endoscopic duodenal mucosal regeneration (DMR). The plastic components in the endoscope device were refined and rapidly manufactured with Diversified Plastics, Inc.’s (DPI’s) Acceleration Station™, powered by the Carbon^® Digital Light Synthesis™ DLS process.

“Working with DPI allowed us to produce multiple design iterations at a rapid pace,” says Michael Brenzel, cofounder, research and development and operations at Endogenex. “The team at DPI responded very quickly to our needs, making changes and keeping us on schedule.”
