I had a lot of fun chatting with this international group of young entrepreneurs out of KTH from Akira Science ( @akirascience) in Sweden. We started the conversation on how the members of the team met. Then we moved onto the biopolymers the team is working on and commercializing, including why it is important to have controllable biodegradable biocompatible and 3D printable materials. We also touched upon the potential killer applications using the Akira biopolymer, including creating a scaffold for breast cancer lobectomy patients and wound healing. We also talked about the unique innovation and entrepreneurial environment in Sweden. You can find additional resources here: https://www.akirascience.com/

Design for Medical 3D Printing and Bioprinting (Virtual Event Recording) 1:52:14

1:52:14

Design for medical 3D printing is not just new software. It reinvents the current design thinking behind medical device innovations, removing many traditional manufacturing constraints. 3D printing (earlier also known as rapid prototyping) is particularly complementary to design thinking, where an iterative approach is required to solve complex problems. Also, unlike conventional methods, 3D printing allows for unprecedented customization and precision, enabling the creation of devices more tailored to individual patients’ specific anatomy or needs, which are typically more costly and sometimes even impossible with traditional manufacturing processes. In this virtual event, we aim to bring together the most active 3D printing software providers, engineers, and medical 3D printing designers to share their insights and updates on our existing toolkits for medical 3D printing design, best cost-effective practices, and future growth areas. We invite everyone motivated to learn, network, and collaborate in future medical innovations to join this critical (and brainy) conversation. https://3dheals.com/design-for-3d-printing-and-bioprinting/ Support the show Follow us: Twitter: https://twitter.com/3dheals Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/3dheals/ Linkedin: https://linkedin.com/company/3dheals Website: https://3dheals.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/3dheals Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3dheals Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@3DHEALSINNOVATION About Pitch3D: https://3dheals.com/pitch3d/…

3D Printed Orthotics and Prosthetics Virtual Event Recording #3DHEALS2024 2:05:53

рік тому2:05:53

2:05:53

3D printing (or additive manufacturing) has become an innovative driving force in orthotics and prosthetics (O&P), allowing for highly customized, precise, and affordable solutions. 3D printing also reduces production time, enabling rapid prototyping and faster turnaround for patients, which can be particularly beneficial for growing children or those requiring adjustments. Although traditional methods are still widely used, more clinicians increasingly integrate 3D printing into their daily practices as the economics of using 3D technologies improves. Furthermore, because 3D printing can be performed in-house or locally, logistics costs and lead times are reduced, providing patients faster service and fewer fitting sessions. For practitioners and clinics, this means a more efficient business model, allowing for a quicker return on investment, lower overhead, and the ability to affordably serve a growing number of patients. Join us for our annual 3DHEALS O&P event and a panel of experts from the clinics, industry, startup, and non-profit organizations. Explore where the next growth opportunity is. We will also use this opportunity to fundraise for our non-profit organization Victoria Hand Project.

Dental 3D Printing 2024 Event Recording: Next Gen, Automation, 20x 1:59:56

This is the recording for our recent dental 3D printing event. Since 2017, dental 3D printing has been an essential focus for the 3D printing world. The dream scenario of every dental practice having a “chair-side” mini factory is still the end goal. But like every other vertical, transforming dentistry is nuanced. From a lack of biocompatible materials to impractically expensive capital requirements, this dream has yet to be realized. However, as an industry observer, we are witnessing slow but steady progress. As Dr. Johnson, one of our speakers, mentioned in his interview , this reality is closer now than ever, with improvements taking place in every aspect of this transformation. Almost every newsletter we published would include one or two new dental 3D printing materials. From a clinical perspective, Every dental specialty (endodontists, implantologists, prosthodontists, orthodontists, etc) has participated in at least one 3DHEALS dental event. Some even have their startups. The willingness to innovate and change is evident. At this event, the central concept of “automation” will be the focus. While many tech giants are investing heavily in LLMs (large language models), the investment in “other” branches of AI/ML is often overlooked and probably equally critical. We have more than one speaker who will speak on the subject. The end goal is 10x or 100x productivity, quality, and accessibility to dental care. As I have written in our Dental Guide, many Americans live edentulous lives. Join this free live event, be part of the conversation, and be part of the change.
