The market for metal 3D implants continues to evolve

The well-known American company PrinterPrezz, specializing in the production of medical devices by 3D printing, has entered into an agreement with SI-BONE for the supply of equipment for creating prostheses. The latest California-based organization is famous for developing the iFuse Implant System for the sacroiliac joint.

A unique surgical procedure allows you to quickly restore bone tissue after fractures and degenerative diseases, through the implantation of cones obtained through 3D printing. Its effectiveness has been confirmed by many clinical studies.

Representatives of SI-BONE believe that the orthopedic implant market will grow from 5 to 50 billion US dollars. And an important place will be occupied by metal samples (made of titanium), for the manufacture of which 3D printers, scanners and software are required. PrinterPrezz must help them by combining 3D metal printing techniques, modern orthopedic surgery, and nanotechnology.
