Researchers from MIT and the Polytechnic University of Milan Create Modular, Printer-Agnostic Monitoring Tool for 3D Bioprinting
Researchers at MIT and the Polytechnic University of Milan have developed a low-cost, AI-driven monitoring platform for 3D bioprinting that improves tissue reproducibility, reduces material waste, and lays the foundation for intelligent, automated fabrication of complex biological structures.
Airway Management Receives FDA Clearance for Digitally Printed Sleep Apnea Device
U.S.-based medical device company Airway Management has received FDA clearance for the Nylon flexTAP, described as the world’s first digitally printed single-point midline oral appliance for sleep apnea. The device, manufactured in the U.S., combines the company’s patented Vertex Technology with a design intended for patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). By using digital printing, the Nylon flexTAP enables a custom fit without requiring bite registration, which can simplify the fitting process for clinicians and patients.
Croom Medical’s Biofuse: 3D Printed Lattice Technology for Advanced Orthopedic Implants
Irish orthopedic manufacturing specialist Croom Medical has introduced Biofuse, a 3D printed porous ingrowth technology for orthopedic implants. Developed using laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing, the platform allows OEMs to integrate lattice structures directly into implant geometries, in line with ASTM F1854 standards.
