Overview

Design Medical 3D Printing is a revolutionary technology that uses a computer-aided design (CAD) program to allow the production of patient-specific prosthetic and orthotic devices in a 3D-based model. Wheelchair design is one of the many potential applications of this technology. It has the potential to revolutionize the way wheelchairs are produced and customized, allowing for the production of lightweight, ergonomic, and affordable wheelchairs that are tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual user. Additionally, 3D printed wheelchairs offer greater flexibility in design and can be quickly produced in as little as one day. This technology can greatly improve the lives of those who require wheelchairs and make them more independent and mobile.
