About us

We are a R&D based Company with an outstanding knowledge of micro mechanization with the capacity of embedding new mechanical movements with electronics and software, improving the traditional medical devices that have been used during decades unchanged, just as they were born.

We apply technology to medical devices with two concrete objectives:

• Make huge advances on MIS
• Transfer of all benefits of robotic surgery to the surgeon’s hands 

As a final achievement we reach our objective to offer a new advance for Laparoscopic Surgery.

Since its creation, and during more than 40 years of use of rigid laparoscopic instruments, only expensive robots could achieve the goal of articulated jaws. Now at iMM GmbH, we consider that as Ford model “T” has democratized the access to the car at the beginning of last century, we will form part of the future of the handheld articulated laparoscopic instruments, putting in the hands of the surgeons the features of the robotic surgery. We are convinced that the human factor is the most important attribute to be as close as possible to the patient for the total control & quick reaction during surgery assisted by our handheld instruments with robotic-like movements at an affordable price. The knowledge, experience and wisdom of the surgeon next to the patient, we have a huge challenge in front of us, and we are looking for partners to create a strong distribution network. We approach the market in the segment of handheld articulated instruments at the proper place, the hands of the surgeon, exalting the human factor, the knowledge, experience and wisdom of the surgeon next to the patient.

We are located at CUBEX 41, the innovative center for foundations and competences in the field of medical technology, integrated with University Hospital Mannheim, Fraunhofer Project Group for Automation in Medicine and Biotechnology (PAMB) and Institute of Medical Technology, the city of Mannheim has included the field of medical technology as a focal area in its portfolio of business development. This clear commitment on the part of the city of Mannheim is a clear advantage for a successful development.
