3D Printing in Medical Technology
Anatomical models, prototypes, and custom parts
From anatomical models for surgical planning to functional prototypes to patient-specific parts: Swiss3D manufactures precise components for medical applications. High-resolution processes, tight tolerances, and a wide range of materials for demanding geometries.
Overview
Precision and individuality for medical technology applications
In medical technology, precision, repeatability, and custom geometries are essential. Additive manufacturing enables individual solutions — from patient-specific models to complex parts that are impossible to produce conventionally. Swiss3D offers high-resolution processes like SLA for finest details, MJF and SLS for robust functional parts, and SLM for dense metal components from titanium, stainless steel, or aluminum.
Applications
Application areas
Typical parts and use cases that we manufacture.
Anatomical models
Patient-specific planning models from CT/MRI data — for procedure preparation, training, and communication.
Functional prototypes
Realistic prototypes for instruments and device components — for testing ergonomics, fit, and mechanics.
Custom parts
Tailored components from titanium, stainless steel, or engineering plastics — adapted to specific geometries and requirements.
Dental technology
Drill guides, models, and gingiva masks — high-resolution manufactured for precise fit.
Orthopedic aids
Custom orthoses, splints, and insoles — adapted to individual anatomy and load profiles.
Laboratory fixtures
Holders, adapters, and fixtures for lab automation and diagnostics — precise and chemical-resistant.
Packaging & trays
Custom trays, inserts, and protective housings for sensitive components — precision-fit and reproducible.
Device components
Housing parts, handles, and adapters for diagnostic and therapy devices — in small series or as single pieces.
