Heeals® - aenium engineering Health division
Porous titanium and tantalum implants are of interest since they exhibit improved strength and lower stiffness compared to the solid metals, and are more aligned with human bone properties. Additionally, long term stability is ensured due to the ability for bone to grow into the open, interconnected porosities.
Additive Manufacturing
Why for medical devices ?
Accuracy in Biomimicry
No two individuals are the same, nor are their organs.
Precise replicas of human anatomies that capture unique internal and external features can be created with 3D-printing techniques. Multiple simulated anatomical models that represent a range of “normal” environments can be created quickly for medical device design evaluation as well as fit and functional testing.
The manufacturing technique creates exceptionally precise and refined replication of unique shapes to deliver parts and pieces that more accurately fit.
Exceptional Comfort
Thanks to additive manufacturing techniques, medical device designers and engineers can create extremely lightweight, small or low-profile designs to maximize comfort and freedom of movement for patients or physicians.
Intricate yet durable honeycomb patterns, internal lattice structures and parts with open, rather than dense interiors are achievable and enable the reduction of weight without sacrificing strength or shape.
Complex geometries with tight tolerances or exceptionally small builds can also be fashioned, keeping surgical tools streamlined or devices that are worn as sleek and unobtrusive as possible.
New Materials, New Methods
Surgical implants need to generate expected responses from neighboring cells and tissues. Cell behavior (adhesion, functional alteration, morphological changes, and proliferation) is strongly affected by yhe surgical implants’ surface properties. Surface topography, surface chemistry, and surface energy influence decissevly the biological response to an implanted device, and those variables can be defined, parametrized and controlled with DMLS technology.
The well controlled 3D prining atmosphere (neutral gases and restricted oxygen) guarantees the high purity of the 3D printed parts and preserves the materials’ properties.
Direct Metal Laser Sintering
DMLS uses a precise, high-wattage laser to micro-weld powdered metals and alloys to form fully functional metal components from your model.
Direct Metal Laser Sintering is a metal additive manufacturing technology in which a high power laser focus sinters metal powder layer by layer according to the coordinates specified in a CAD file.

Selective Laser Sintering
SLS is an additive manufacturing (AM) technique that uses a laser as the power source to sinter powdered material developing complex structures.
Selective Laser Sintering technology is a plastic additive manufacturing technology in which a laser that melts the plastic powder particles according to the specified 3D model is used as a thermal energy source and repeats the process layer after layer.

Stereolithography
SLA process converts photosensitive liquid into solid plastics in a layer-by-layer fusion using a low-power laser and photopolymerization.
Stereolithography or Photopolymerization is a plastic additive manufacturing technology that consists of hardening or polymerizing a liquid photopolymer through an ultraviolet laser focus, selectively layer by layer.

PolyJet
Inkjet print heads are used to jet liquid photopolymers onto a build platform. The material is immediately cured by UV lamps and solidified which allows to build layers on top of each other.
Photopolymer Injection is a plastic additive manufacturing technology in which a print head travels by injecting a plastic material reactive to ultraviolet light (photopolymer) and a UV lamp hardens it after being injected. The process is repeated layer by layer.
