3D Printing in the Healthcare Industry

Optimize your medical parts production with industrial 3D printing. Rapidly build specialized equipment, orthotics, medical and pharmaceutical devices. Our expertise in additive manufacturing technologies allows us to meet the standards and needs of the health sector:

  • Part customization: ex. custom-made orthoses.
  • Delay reduction and better care accessibility.
  • Design freedom: e.g. devices with complex geometries.
  • Assemblies consolidation: e.g. complex one-piece devices.
  • Manufacturing flexibility: several different parts produced in a single batch.
  • Medical grade materials and post-processing.

Industrial

Mandate

To build a large-format amplifier part with an unusual curved shape and high standards

Goals

To achieve a superior sound quality together with an aesthetically pleasing look, Askja’s designers realized the complex design of the large format amplifier incorporated an unusual curved shape that made it nearly impossible to manufacture traditionally.

The design freedom of 3D printing allows them to produce any shape they came up with, with no geometric limitations. This capability proved to be the cornerstone to realizing the design and production of our hybrid amplifier, filters, and power supply unit.

“We are very satisfied with the 3D functional prototypes that we order from Solaxis. Right from the beginning of the quote, the Solaxis team is very thorough in understanding our needs in order to be able to suggest the right process and the right material and come up with a 3D prototype that best matches the final product, for representative validation. Solaxis always produces and ships the parts quickly, avoiding any project delays. As well, the parts are carefully packaged to prevent damage of any kind during shipping, which is very much appreciated.”
