ROLE of 3Dprinting &3DModel
3. HISTORY:
3D Printing @ Additive Manufacturing, AM
Process of creating a three dimensional object using additive manufacturing file (AFM),
in which the 3D object of any shape out of any material is made layer by layer
under computer control .
1980 First stage
1981 Hideo Kodama , Nagoya Municipal Industrial Research Institute ,
fabricated 3D plastic models with photo hardening thermoset polymer using
UV exposure area controlled by a mask pattern or scanning fiber transmitter.
1984 july 16th Alain Le Méhauté , olivier de witte, jean claude andré filled
their patent for stereolithography process. Project got abandoned.
1984 , august , Chuck Hull , 3D corporation filed their own patent for STL fabricating system.
Layers are added by curing photopolymers with UV light lasers. Hull definition is “system
for generating 3D objects by creating a cross sectional pattern of the object to be formed”
Hull gave the STL (Stereolithography) file format and the digital slicing and infill strategies.
4. Fused Deposition Modelling, a special application of plastic extrusion
developed in 1988 by S.Scott Crump of Stratasys
They marketed first FDM machine in 1992.
Commonly used technology is FDM ( hobbyist, consumer oriented models)
1993, Solidscape, high precision polymer jet fabrication system with soluble support
Structures categorised as a “dot-on-dot” technique.
Agile tooling is a term used to describe modular methods for design and production
of tooling by additive manufacturing or 3D printing methods to enable rapid prototyping
And iteration of tooling and fixtures.
3D Modelling
3D printable models may be created with computer –aided-design CAD package,
via a 3D scanner or by a plain digital camera and photogrammetry software.
3D scanning is a process of collecting digital data on the shape and appearance of a
Real object creating a digital model based on it.
5. CURRENT APPLICATIONS IN ORTHOPAEDICS
1, Bone tumours and custom mega prosthesis.
2, Pelvic and acetabular injuries to precontour the plates.
3, Knee sizing, implant selection, and patient specific jigs for
precise minimal invasion TKR.
4, Any complex fracture dislocation pattern where the surgeon
would benefit from a 3D model for precise preoperative planning.
5, In outliers for THR and TKR, needing custom made, over size or undersized implants.
6, THR in dysplastic hips and Juvenile rheumatoid.
7, TKR in knees with severe bone loss and defects, to preoperatively plan or
custom design augments and wedges.
6. STEPS OF 3D PRINTING
1, A 3d CT scan is first done. The slices should be one mm thick and
the output should be in an STL file. Most modern scan centres are
able to provide STL output files. Stereo Litho Graphy.
2, The STL file is opened in a CAD software like solid works or mastercam.
The 3d image is inspected on a monitor and re positioned in a proper way to allow the
printing to proceed from bottom upwards. Thus the base should be wider and the
apex narrower.
3, The CAD output is in the form of IEGS files. These are reinspected in a CAD viewer
like Fusion 360, or Mastercam.
4, Each printer driver needs to be conveyed information about nozzle diameter,
melt temperature, bed temperature, number of passes, and time per pass.
This information added to the IEGS file produces the G Code file.
The Gcode file is the key to proper printing, and this conversion alone will decide the
accuracy of the final output.
5, The filament spool is loaded, and fed to the nozzle. The software is run
and a print command is given.
6, It takes any where between four to eleven hours to print a single model.
Be patient and have a definite power back up.
7. 3D-printed Bio-models
• Provide a tactile feedback
• Simulate complex anatomical movements, such as articulation at the TM joint.
• Enhanced appreciation of the visuo-spatial relationship between anatomical
structures for the surgeons.
• Shorter operative time
• Reduced exposure to general anesthesia
• Shorter wound exposure time
• Reduced intraoperative blood loss
8. Stereolithography (SLA)
Earliest available technology
Highly accurate,
high resolution ~ 0.025mm
Expensive and labor intensive
24 hours or more per print
MJM
MultiJet Modelling
@ Polyjet technology
High resolution products
Minimal labor and post production
Also Expensive
Has a poor surface finish
9. Selective Laser Sintering
Uses powdered forms of thermoplastic,
metal, glass, or ceramic material
Sintered by high-power laser beams in a
layer-by-layer fashion
Very Expensive
Binder Jet Technique
No Support material
Can print in multiple colors and materials
Brittle
Requires post production finishing
