3D
printing technology has revolutionized the various industries such aerospace,
medical, automotive and consumer products. This technology helps in printing
the prototype of a desired structure with the use of computer aided design. 3D
printing can be defined as the process of making product and its part with the
use of additive manufacturing and computer driven designs. This technology
helps in printing finest product with highest accuracy by building the
prototype in layer-by layer manner.
The
medical industry is making progress with the use of 3D printing technologies.
It holds immense potential in various fields of medical industry such as
surgical instrument, guides, implants and bioengineering. The currently
available 3D printing implants are primarily available for orthopedic,
dental and cranio-maxillofacial applications. 3D printing in bioengineering is
helpful in printing liver, splint, heart, cartilage, tendons and ligament
while, 3D printed surgical instruments include retractors, hemostat, tissue
forceps, scalpel and scissors. 3D printed surgical guides are the biologically
structured prototypes which are helpful for preoperative studies.
3D
printing uses various technologies for building the prototypes. These
technologies include electron beam manufacturing (EBM), laser beam
manufacturing (LBM), drop deposition manufacturing and Photopolymerization. All
these technologies help in creating the prototype in layer wise manner.
Depending upon the application, these technologies are applied for printing.
Photopolymerization is used extensively for the printing process because of its
property to create complex structures with high accuracy. Photopolymerization
use photopolymers as a raw material and reacts to various wavelengths of light.
Various raw materials are used to print the prototypes namely metals, polymers,
natural materials, ceramics and mixed materials. Depending on the applications,
definite raw materials are used. Ceramics and polymers are used heavily for
printing bone and cranio-maxillofacial implants.
3D
printing has increased the post operative survival rate by reducing the risk
and complexity. In addition, Government support for this technology would also
boost the growth of this market. Recently in year 2013, U.K Government has
planned to invest around USD 19.4 million in 3D printing and technological
R&D. Moreover, this technology has proven to be beneficial in printing customized
biological parts which would consequently help to improve the quality of life
and minimize the death ratio. All these advantages would augment the growth of
this market however, delayed and stringent regulatory approval processes would
hinder the growth of this market. In addition, lack of process control and
understanding in developmental phase would also hamper its growth. Some of
market players in 3D printing are 3D System Corporation, Stratasys Ltd., Arcam
AB, EnvisionTEC GmbH and other significant players.
