Rob Surgical

To universalise high-precision surgery to address the challenges of the medical community and improve patient care.
About Rob Surgical keyboard_arrow_down
Rob Surgical was created by the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC) and the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) to respond to the minimally invasive robotic surgery (MIRS) challenges of the Mayo Clinic in the U.S. and the European Robotic Surgery Project (EuRoSurge) funded by the European Commission in the FP7.

Mission

To universalise high-precision surgery to address the challenges of the medical community and improve patient care.

Vision
To become a global reference in high-precision surgery and a company respected for its innovative, efficient and quality robotic systems, designed according to medical needs.

Main milestones

  • 2008-2011: Research phase with UPC, IBEC and Mayo Clinic experts.

  • 2012: Rob Surgical spin-off is created in Barcelona with the aim of achieving this leading research in hospitals and patients.

  • 2012-2018: Our engineering team develops the functional prototype of the Bitrack system.

  • 2014: We perform the first surgery with animal models.

  • 2018: Bitrack has successfully completed its pre-design unit technical validation.

  • 2020: ISO 13485 Certification.

Main challenges

We have proposed to universalize high-precision surgery with a new efficiency approach where precision and safety are a must and that allows for a wider range of surgical procedures and reach an unbeatable balance between added value and cost.
