Rapid prototyping / tooling / manufacturing

Process…

• Basic data :Scan / 3D CAD files – STL

• Pre- treatment :STL corrections, orientation, supports, 2D slicing

• Manufacturing :Full automatic

• Post- treatment :Cleaning, sand blasting, coating, finishing

Need of flexibility, complex structures and fast

response for surgery! Very small or even

standard (large) manufacturing series possible

• Evolution of medical imagery technology

=> Easy access to 3D world !

Need for custom implants !

Every human is different (anatomy)
