3D printing science

Kneecap five hours will be able to print it out, edible wax can also be when the print metal powder material. August 15, by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Chinese Academy of support, Qingdao Municipal Government, Qingdao Economic and Information Technology Commission hosted the 2013 China (Qingdao) International Software Integration and Innovation Expo in Qingdao International Convention and Exhibition Center grand opening, 3D Print this exhibition as a showcase exhibition highlights a total area of 1500 square meters, is China's largest 3D printing exhibition, meanwhile, China's first multi-function 3D bio-printers available. 

5 hours print kneecap 

In uni technology exhibition, many visitors around a machine with four print heads looking at the print head marked medical drugs, cell fluid, Aluminium Magnesium Alloy powder material, bone auxin words, "Is this machine can print the body Bones? "Citizen Zheng Jinyan looked at the machine next to the kneecap to ask. 

"Yes, this machine is China's first human heart stents and Ferromanganese powder material 3D bio-printer, you see his knees, spine, broken bones, etc., which can complete a 3D printer, a kneecap five hours will be able to print. "The United States DrexelUniversity Mechanical Engineering academician, 3D printing renowned expert Professor Zhou Gongyao holding printed kneecap, this is combined with R & D Co., Ltd. Qingdao uni out, named re-human, which is the body regenerate. 

"Currently, organ transplants require very lack, but through the 3D bio-printer can reduce human organs transplanted organ can not find embarrassing." Qingdao uni Technology founder Wang said that the Ferrochrome powder materials used in this printer are biodegradable biomaterials, which is the bone of this material can not only print out the integration with the human body, and so ill degradation can automatically disappear after a degradation time of approximately 1 year. 

Compared with similar international printers, this selection of 3D printing has greater choice, for example, you can choose heart stent material, the body can absorb bone material, bone growth hormone, human living cells and drugs can treat a variety of wounds As printing sprayed welding alloy powder material for printing, which was previously simply impossible.
