Additive Manufacturing for HealthcareMedical device manufacturers are increasingly adopting metal additive manufacturing technology to produce a wide range of medical devices and dental prostheses. Selective Laser Melting is the ideal production technique to integrate function into medical device components, for example, printing surgical implants with lattice structures for enhanced osseointegration and reduced stress shielding. Designs optimized for the Nikon SLM^® process, and those custom to patients’ anatomy, often create complex bionic geometries which can only be efficiently produced with Selective Laser Melting. Nikon SLM^® technology provides productivity and cost advantages to users, compared to conventional manufacturing processes such as casting and machining.Whether you are making one or many, experience tailored patient care with AM – we help ensure your success with metal additive manufacturing.
