3D printing in medicine and orthotics

3D printing solutions in professional medicine and orthopedics

What can 3D printing bring to the medical and orthoprosthetic sector?

3D printing is transforming medicine and orthopedics by enabling the manufacture of fully customized devices, reducing production times and improving clinical precision. From orthoses and prostheses to anatomical models for surgical planning, this technology is driving a new way of understanding healthcare: faster, more precise, and completely tailored to the patient.

At Filament2Print, we provide comprehensive solutions that include large-format 3D printers and bioprinters, biocompatible filaments, TPUs suitable for skin contact, and technical materials such as PP, along with the technical support needed to choose the best combination for each medical or orthoprosthetic application.

Applications

Orthopedics (splints, orthoses, custom insoles)

Custom anatomical models based on medical imaging.

Surgical guides for complex procedures.

Custom prostheses.

Personalized medical devices and functional housings.

Medical training and clinical simulation.

Rapid prototyping of instruments and healthcare solutions.

3D printing products for medicine and orthoprosthetics

Biocompatible filaments

Materials designed to meet biocompatibility standards (according to ISO 10993 or equivalent according to the manufacturer).

PP (Polypropylene) Filaments

Perfect for applications requiring chemical resistance, lightness, and flexibility. Ideal for reusable devices.

TPU/TPE filaments suitable for skin contact

It is a flexible material, ideal for ergonomic and comfortable parts. TPU/TPE filaments are perfect for applications such as splints, flexible prostheses, and fitting components.

Main benefits of these filaments:

✔ Elasticity and shape memory.
✔ High wear resistance.
✔ Suitable for applications in prolonged skin contact (according to the manufacturer).

Bioprinters

Advanced solutions for universities, research centers and hospitals that conduct medical research and develop new applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
