Case study: Additive manufacturing for serial production of orthopaedic implants (docx)

Croom Precision Medical has chosen Renishaw as their additive manufacturing (AM) and metrology partner, utilising Renishaw technology throughout the production and validation of their ISO13485 certified medical devices. The company has found that using Renishaw’s AM technology allows them to incorporate complex features into their implant design at a commercially viable cost. They also report that Renishaw’s built-in AM software, used in combination with Renishaw’s metrology solutions, allows them to maintain traceability throughout their manufacturing process, which is essential in a heavily regulated environment.
