Customized 3d printed arm cast

Prosthetics have to be individually tailored. It means factoring in the size, weight, height, stance, and body part. Thus orthopedists study your movements. After getting enough information on this, they would try to mold a limb that will sync up with the others. 

The standard process is to make a plaster cast. This is already the first step to 3D printing as well. 

1. First up is to design the prosthetic based on photos and video. 
2. Then build it out with durable thermoplastics and metal. 
3. From there, they tweak the finer details by hand until it works with the animal. 

The process can take weeks because there’s also the matter of the amount of the limb that needs replacing. If the whole limb is gone and there’s no obvious point to attach a prosthetic, it could get much trickier.

Rehabilitation and 3d printed wrist cast

Complications can arise even with the success of the adaptability with the cast. For patients with arthritis or other mobility issues, putting extra weight on the remaining limbs can cause bigger problems in the long run. Mainly, it may impact spinal mobility. They would have to change the range of motion in their existing limbs. They might end up having to pull themselves and keep moving in ways that are very unnatural. 

With the help of prosthetics, the range of motion can be restored. Prosthetic and the proper rehab is the perfect solution for this. Prosthetic is just plastic. It does nothing unless partnered with the right exercise and treatment. 

3d printer in the philippines can be used for medical need.

3D printing has long been hailed as a manufacturing revolution. Therefore, we know that it is the solution to full-limb replacement. 

Approaches to how we solve medical problems are constantly evolving. New gear and gadgets are being invented to better our health and well-being. One of the most revolutionary change is the use of 3D printing in the medical field.

From prosthetics, medical, even those who are still in practice. All take advantage of 3D services.

Prosthetics are very expensive and it takes a long time to make one. However, with the help of 3D printing technology, it’s more accessible today. 

From prosthetics, medical, even those who are still in practice. All take advantage of 3D services.

Below the top 3 companies that have taken a step into 3D printing services

Nidek Technologies

Switched from using metal parts to 3D printed parts. 

They are using 3D printing to identify issues with the eye as well as improve the durability of their tools.

Gonioscope is a device designed to observe the space between the iris and cornea. It has started using 3D printed parts in its prototyping phase.

Nidek is able to optimize the process of helping optometrists care for patients.

Syqe Medical 

Created a prototype for a medical cannabis inhaler. After finding success with prototyping, they turned to 3D printing for clinical trials.

Medtronic

Started using 3D print services for:

• Prototyping
• Conceptualizing & testing
• Tech development
• Anatomical modeling
• Testing fixtures

Here at 3D2GO, we are equipped with the right software to build the 3D models. Through the software, we are able to simulate how a 3D model might function with the rest of the body. Our designers can stress test and map movements of the limb before printing it out. Our process is similar to building standard orthopedics. So you can rest assured that you will be treated with the right medical care.
