Post-processing of 3D prints in the medical and biotechnology industries

In the medical and biotechnology industries, where precision and surface quality are crucial for the final application, post-processing of 3D prints becomes particularly important. Technology Applied – the largest Polish company specializing in 3D printing using SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) and MJF (Multi Jet Fusion) methods, uses DyeMansion’s post-processing technology to meet the rigorous requirements of this industry.

In the medical and biotechnology industries, 3D prints are used to produce specialized tools, orthoses, prostheses, anatomical models and components of medical devices. They require not only high precision of workmanship, but also special finishing to ensure safety, biocompatibility and appropriate functionality. The post-processing technology offered by Technology Applied plays a key role in refining 3D prints in these applications. It includes advanced surface smoothing, dyeing and UV curing techniques, which not only increase the aesthetics, but also improve the physical and chemical properties of prints. These processes are particularly important in the production of medical implants, which must be smooth and free of micropores to minimize the risk of infections.

Smoothing the surface of prints reduces the risk of bacteria accumulation and facilitates sterilization, which is crucial in medical applications. Staining, on the other hand, can be used to code different types of implants or instruments for better identification. DyeMansion technology offers a wide range of colors that are safe and suitable for medical applications. Using them, Technology Applied provides high-quality products that are used in various areas of medicine and biotechnology.

The use of advanced post-processing in the medical and biotechnology industries brings many benefits. This not only improves the appearance and functionality of printouts, but also increases their safety and efficiency of use. For Technology Applied, the ability to deliver products that meet these high standards allows the company to strengthen its position as a leader in providing 3D printing solutions to the medical and biotechnology industries.
