Integrating Scanning, CAD Engineering and Print Technology
The development of computer-aided design (CAD) software in conjunction with 3D-printing of customized medical devices has introduced an option to improve nonoperative treatment in many medical disciplines. While this option has allowed for individualized modeling and production of devices, it has also created challenges regarding design choices, material options, and additive manufacturing options.
The available materials have their own properties that may affect the quality of the printed product, and the different printing techniques affect the printing time. Ideally, a 3D-printed device is tailored to fit the individual patient, providing optimal efficacy, and at the same time be more convenient to patients than the traditional devices.
Hark Health Services has commercial application and experience in custom-fitted medical devices, 3-D printing for casts, braces and splints since 2005. The research, development and implementation has been realized in acute orthopedic, podiatric and sports medicine settings (Division 1 athletic departments and professional sports teams) across the United States.
As the 3-D print solution for medical devices continues to evolve, there are static and fluctuating challenges that have to be addressed daily. Hark Health Services’ work in the commercial sector to date lends itself to immediate and future migration for a working system solution to a multitude of current and future 3-D printed products.
Hark Health Services is the manufacturer, maintaining multiple print farms strategically located around the country to provide fast, reliable printing in an outsourced framework for hospitals, clinics, athletic departments and in 2024, direct to consumer printing.
