Sawbones

Sawbones is a medical simulation and biomechanical testing company best known for anatomical bone and soft-tissue models used in orthopaedic and broader medical education. The business originated within Pacific Research Laboratories and has been operating since 1975, supplying training models, biomechanical test materials, anatomical displays, and custom product-development services to medical institutions and device manufacturers. Its products are used for surgical skills training, implant testing, product demonstration, and patient education rather than for development of therapeutics. The company appears to be active, private, and commercially focused, with a large catalog of standardized models as well as customized manufacturing capabilities. Sawbones also participates in digital/virtual implant testing through the ENDPOINT platform launched with Numalogics.
