Advancing 3D-printed medical implants depends on the steady progress of leading-edge printer technologies, as well as the skillful development of the raw materials used in those technologies. Appreciating that these crucial factors must work together, Himed (www.himed.com), a New York-based biomaterials manufacturer serving dental and orthopedic implant markets worldwide, and Lithoz (www.lithoz.com), a global market leader in 3D printing based in Austria, have teamed up to develop new bioceramic feedstocks.
