Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, is a modern process used to create complex and customized components. This process plays a crucial role in the manufacture of patient-specific medical devices. Here too, Bruker Alicona offers solutions to ensure the high quality of additively manufactured medical implants. Measurement technology plays an important central role in all process steps of the production chain - both in production and for the final inspection of the manufactured component. The focus here is mainly on roughness measurement. In addition, geometric features such as internal structures, different wall thicknesses, free-form surfaces or structures in very small sizes must also be verified.
