Advanced additive manufacturing technologies play a crucial role in the development, repair, and customization of medical implants. Specifically, systems like Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENS) and Aerosol Jet Printing (AJP) are used to create high-quality, patient-specific implants, as well as to enhance their functionality and biocompatibility. These innovations allow for more precise, tailored solutions in medical treatment, improving outcomes for patients and advancing the field of personalized medicine. Furthermore, they open new possibilities for repairing complex injuries and creating implants that better integrate with the body’s natural tissues.
