This part came with some material challenges. Initially, we tested the part in Hard from Photocentric. It purportedly passed the tests from the customer. Mistakes were made which resulted in the part being mass produced in a different material that was thought to be better than hard. When the product was used by consumers, it …
Merit3D completed a medical project this month with 405 resin from Loctite (IND405). This is a significant expansion of our normal operations, which have historically centered around 465 resins. We are constantly testing new resins for new projects. The project required over 40 design iterations resulting in a sleek, functional product. Thousands of parts were …
We have been delving into parts that need medical certification. This has been a can of worms. We have found that medical certification isn’t so much about the material as it is about the geometry of the part printed, though materials do need to be safe to interact with humans in their specific applications.
