For more than 40 years, HiArc (formerly KMC Systems) has helped leading medtech companies develop and launch complex diagnostic and life science systems. From our roots as a trusted design and manufacturing partner, we’ve grown into a full-service engineering force with global reach and deep regulatory knowledge.
Today, as HiArc, we’re bringing that legacy forward—more focused, more agile, and more committed than ever to helping our partners shape the future of care.

Services
Concept
Bold ideas deserve the best possible start, so we champion early-stage development that’s deeply collaborative - grounded in clear requirements, managed risk, and simulation-backed insight.
Engineering Design
See your boldest ideas take shape. Working side-by-side with your team, we apply intelligent design practices to translate your vision into manufacturable, regulatory-ready solutions - while ensuring your IP stays with you.
Manufacturing
We take your prototype from concept to reality with precision, control, and full regulatory alignment, ensuring your IP is protected. From system integration to production oversight, we adapt to your needs ensuring readiness, control, and real-world performance.
Support
Product launch isn’t the end. Our post-market services are tailored to help you maintain your unique system in the field, so you avoid costly redesigns and stay confidently compliant as your product evolves.
Expertise
Microfluidics
Achieve tighter control and faster throughput with microfluidic systems tailored to your exact requirements. From precision pumping and pipetting to level sensing and fluid routing, every component is engineered to perform reliably under the most demanding in-vitro diagnostic conditions
Robotics
Automate with confidence using robotics designed to serve, not reshape, your workflow. Whether it’s grippers, cappers, de-cappers, or multiaxis stages, every subsystem is built to increase speed, precision, and reliability without adding complexity.
Thermodynamics
Ensure stability at every step with thermal systems designed around your assay’s demands. Environmental control, on-board reagent cooling, Peltier-based systems, and heated reagent probes are engineered to deliver accurate, repeatable performance across variable conditions.
Optics & Imaging
Capture more and miss nothing. With optical systems purpose-built for in-vitro diagnostic and analytical precision. Whether you require fluorometry, luminescence detection, or spectrophotometry, each configuration is tailored to meet your platform’s exact sensitivity, resolution, and speed requirements.

Our Process
For our team, partnership means showing up like part of your team. We listen first, align fast, and bring cross-functional expertise to the table so your product moves from idea to implementation with less friction, fewer surprises, and more confidence.
Our flexible model supports every stage of development, whether you need help defining requirements, refining a prototype, or scaling to production. We adapt to your workflow and stay accountable from the first conversation to commercial release.
