Grand Valley State University’s applied Medical Device Institute (aMDI) has been awarded $500,000 by the Grand Rapids SmartZone to study the use of specialized 3D printing technology for medical device production.
The grant will allow the Grand Rapids, Michigan-based institute, along with contract manufacturer MediSurge (Grand Rapids) and 3D printing company Carbon (Redwood City, Calif.) to create production-grade, implantable medical devices, which isn’t currently possible due to existing materials used for prototyping. The institute has a new Carbon 3D printer.
