American start-up company FossiLabs, using 3D printing fused filament fabrication (FFF) process, uses polyetheretherketone (PEEK) to design porous bone-like structures to improve medical implants
.
The company claims that these FFF 3D printed fully porous PEEK bone-like structures are the first to be used in an implantable medical device
.
Prior to this development, all other products were only available in designated superficial pores or windows, however, this announcement by FossiLabs means that within the 3D printing space, it is possible to 3D print solid or designated porous structures
.
FossiLabs has developed proprietary hardware and software that enables the easy identification of robust and controllable large areas of osteoid in existing client models
.
Todd Reith, founder and president of FossiLabs, commented: "Using 3D printing technology, it is possible to create porous structures that are not possible with traditional methods
.
Currently, FossiLabs is looking for medical device companies to endorse its technology to enhance its existing static product line and develop new high-performance products
