Metal 3D-printing (titanium) is carried out using Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology. This technology can be used for implantable devices.
The 3D-printed models are validated for steam sterilization, and all information about sterilization and cleaning can be found in the Instructions for Use (IFU).
3D Medical Models operates according to a fully validated ISO 13485 process. This applies to 3D-printing, the software, and the entire workflow. The quality management system EN ISO 13485:2016 is globally and industry-wide recognized.
