Together with leading 3D printer manufacturers, we completed rigorous testing and analysis of specific material-printer combinations. These tests determined which 3D-printed models met specific acceptance criteria for each clinical indication when adhering to the technical instructions from the machine manufacturer.

We identified combinations that may be safely used with the Materialise Mimics software to print models for diagnostic scenarios such as multidisciplinary team communication or surgical planning.

These printers and materials are suitable for orthopaedic, cranio-maxillofacial, and cardiovascular anatomical models.
