3D Printing aids for ‘Arthritis’ Patients

Posted on Updated on

Arthritis is not only based on age anybody can have ‘Arthritis’ at any age.
In my opinion, research can change the bases of age.
I have seen so many young age people have ‘Arthritis’.
Nobody wants to talk about and they hide because. Arthritis is commonly used for old age diseases. According to the Department of Biomedical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering, Michigan Technological University, Houghton, “By 2040, more than a quarter of the U.S. population will have diagnosed arthritic conditions. Adults with arthritis and other rheumatic conditions earn less than average yet have medical care expenditures that are over 12% of average household income. Adaptive aids can help arthritis patients continue to maintain independence and quality of life; however, their high costs limit accessibility for older people and the poor. One method used for consumer price reduction is distributed manufacturing with 3-D printers. In order to assess if such a method would be financially beneficial, this study evaluates the techno-economic viability of distributed manufacturing of adaptive aids for arthritis patients”.

3D Printed colorful texture parts

Posted on Updated on

Several companies offer full-color and multi-material 3D printers with unique features and capabilities. Some popular options include the Stratasys J750 and J850, the 3D Systems ProJet CJP 660Pro, and the HP Jet Fusion 580/380. Each printer has different strengths and weaknesses, so choosing the one that best suits your needs is essential.

According to Stratasys, “A look at a range of 3D printed parts printed on the Stratasys J750 rapid prototyping 3D printing solution, the world’s only full color, and a multi-material 3D printer. Featuring Digital ABS Plus, a tough, engineering-grade material; Agilus 30, an enhanced rubber-like material with excellent surface finish and elongation at break; and VeroFlex, a new eyewear solution material combining the optimal rigidity and durability for eyewear drop testing and full-color design-validation It.”

It is possible to 3D print colorful textured parts using various techniques. Here are some options:

Multi-color 3D printing: Some 3D printers, such as the Prusa i3 MK3S and the Ultimaker 3, can print in multiple colors. This allows you to create parts with colorful designs and textures.

Multi-material 3D printing: Some 3D printers, such as the Ultimaker S5 and the BCN3D Sigma R19, can print with multiple materials. 3D printing colorful textured parts allow us to create parts with different textures and colors.

3D printing with textured filaments: There are a variety of filaments available that can create textured prints, such as wood-filled, stone-filled, and carbon fiber-filled filaments. Some filaments, like metallic filaments, can also create a shiny or reflective texture.

Post-processing techniques: After printing, you can apply post-processing techniques to add texture and color to your parts. For example, you can sand or polish your parts to create a smooth or shiny texture, or you can paint or dye your parts to add color.

There are many ways to create colorful and textured parts using 3D printing technology. Your chosen technique will depend on your project’s requirements and the available resources.
